“If we consider the magnitude and the speed of climate warming, by 1C globally and 2C in the Arctic, during the past 150 years, and compare this with the temp increase of ~1C at the Bölling-Alleröd, it appears likely that large-scale permafrost thawing and carbon release is going to happen again."

Completely agree. I take some morbid solace in knowing that nature doesn't care about propaganda. Humans can come up with any reason they like - angry gods, Chinese conspiracy, evil Democrats... doesn't matter. There is no enemy to attack. It's also just a personal opinion that the game was over before most of us were born. We could stop burning oil this second and the damage would already have been done. If we had cut all emission in 2006, when Inconvenient Truth was released, it might still have been too late, if delayed for 20 or 30 years. This is a cycle the Earth has been through before, with or without humans, and human acceleration of events is simply a tragedy for those unfortunate enough to witness the end game, and the shear stupidity and arrogance of our fellow man. We won't be missed.
