It's not Global Warming or changing,,it's Human Error.,,,,but,each to there own,,

The above poster is wrong in so many ways.
First; Oil isn't a main component of the earths structure, nor was it ever a main component of the earth. The earth is primarily composed of Iron, Oxygen, Silicon and Magnesium. Not oil.
Secundus; just where is your proof that the earth has never undergone any rapid climate changes in the past none more so devestating than the one we've been experiencing the past 200 years? I stress again, the earth is 4 billion years old. We can only record temperatures back 500 years or so.
Think of it like this.
The universe is 15 billion or so years old. Imagine a year calender; the creation of the universe is on the first second of January the first and right now, we are living in the last second of New Years Eve, December 31st 23:59:59.
On this scale, the Earth was created near the start of September. The Dinosaurs were created Christmas Eve. The were extinct by Christmas day. Everything that has happened in the past 5000 years happened within the last 10 seconds. These last 200 years happened in the blink of an eye, half a second.
So how can you be so arrogant to say that the earth has never experienced something like this since its creation? You can't. Sure you can say it, but you don't have any evidence to support it. Your whole argument is based on nothing.
I'm tired. I'm going to go to sleep. I'll check back on this thread in the morning.
