And again...

I would note, the logic of the OP has yet to be effectively refuted.

Pascal's Wager redux, oddly enough.

"one looks even further back and sees a period that is as warm as today"

and even warmer!! but that would be a planet almost uninhabitable by humans, and if that's the future level of warm, then industrial civilization would be almost certainly harmed seriously if not downgraded to pre-industrial levels of resource consumption.

eg, the US sunbelt exploded in population with the advent of a/c in homes, offices, cars, detaching people from the sweaty, stinky, humid natural reality of the region.

You DO know that there are FAR FAR more cold-related deaths each year than heat-related deaths, right?

[boutons_deux]

bullshit response.

People moved to the sunbelt because it became comfortable and to avoid the cold/snow, not to avoid dying from the cold.

A lot more people die from handguns, so let's ....

Just as there are far far more US deaths in automobile accidents every year, than terrorists have ever killed.

Your point?
