To comment on Anne Mauger’s climate alarmism, 24/06

When the sun woke up some 11,000 years ago the Quaternary glaciation paused, for now, and life surged back onto the world. Since then there have been peaks and troughs in the global temperature that have been plotted as anomalies above and below an average.
The warmest periods were the twin spikes of the Holocene Climatic Optimum, 7,800 and 6,900 years ago, at about 1C above average. Other warm spikes were named the Egyptian, Sumerian, Minoan, Roman and Medieval Warm Periods, with the Minoan WP matching the HCO’s +1C.
The coldest periods were just before the HCO (-0.7C) and the Sumerian WP (-0.49C), and the Little Ice Age (1350-1850AD) (-0.6C). We live in the Modern Warm Period and the temperature anomaly is minus 0.3C. That is, the current temperature is 1.3C colder than it was 7,800, 6,900, and 3,400 years ago.
Climate alarmists start their trend lines from the LIA, the second coldest period in the current interglacial, but if they chose any of the three hottest periods they’d have to go back to basing their scare campaign on the coming ice age, just like they did in the 1970s.
