Blocked by someone trying to deny climate change, LOL!!!

As some of you may know, I've accumulated numerous graphs and images and links regarding climate change, and I readily deploy them to counter climate change deniers.

This onslaught of facts and figure can be dispiriting to some deniers, such as this one, who deleted many of my posts and blocked me! I'm sure there's room for a snowflake joke here somewhere, LOL!!!

I myself believe that there are cycles to climate
of course it'll change
you can take a core sample by drilling into the earth
and you'll see changes occurred
same with the rings in a tree
you'll see dry years and wetter years /it is a story

it is what it is

we can always live better lives
@ammelee Sure there are cycles; they are quite clear in the 800,000 years of climate data we have recovered.

HOWEVER, the rates of change in the previous cycles are FAR LOWER than what we see today. Likewise, current levels of methane & CO2 are far higher than before. In other words, what's been happening on Earth for the last 100 years is UNPRECEDENTED.

In the last 800,000 years, covering about 7 ice ages, the temp & CO2 levels have NEVER risen as fast as they are rising now. CO2 is rising 100x faster, and temps 10x faster. The climate data comes from bubbles in glacial ice, and is corroborated by data from lake & sea floor sediments.

CO2 & methane & temp data

Let's just zoom in on the most recent 1000 years.

@ammelee OK. But you do know that climate scientists recognize cycles too, right? Are you saying they don't? I mean, that's their professional lives, right? They're probably aware. I don't mean to be dismissive but if you're saying that human beings haven't contributed to climate change then there's a reason. You're either not interested in learning or you take some kind of pride in saying it's not real. I don't get that. Why?
