Re: Is Global Warming a Natural Phenomenon?

Although I know very little about GW, I think that we have probably accelerated a natural phenomenon, thereby giving the world less time to adapt and prepare for what is inevitable.
Sometimes when I'm out and about in Kent, I ponder upon when it once was a tropical sea, many millions of years ago. The chalk downs and cliffs are evidence of this and it has occurred to me that one day it could change again and be a tropical sea once more. So this would indicated that it's just the worlds rhythm and we've reached the cusp of change.
I don't think humans would have done things any differently if we had known about GW 150 years back, so perhaps we are part of that rhythm. I don't know, it's a very big subject and I don't think we've even scratched the surface of it.
