The earth went through similar peak temperatures to the last peak in 2008 in 1000 and 1760. Now we are past the 2008 peak the earth is cooling again, with cooler summers and colder winters, lets hope we don't get an ice age as it will end northern civilization.
Since the mass extinction of the dinosaurs 4 million years a go (it is thought their methane production, mass eating of plant material and CO2 production helped keep the earth much warmer than now with much higher CO2 levels), CO2 levels have been steadily dropping.
We entered our current ice age 2.6 million years a go and for much of the last 800,000 years the earth has been in an ice age crisis, with short 10,000 to 35,000 warm periods like we are in at the moment. The last thing we need are big drops in CO2 to make the earth cooler and the triggering of another ice age. An ice age can start i n as little as one year, as the snow and ice, reflect so much heat it quickly reinforces itself, so it takes 1000's of years to get out of.
The climate change scientists who were funded by Governments to PROVE climate change, so they can keep us under their thumbs, tax us to death and pay big subsidies to members of their families (The
ex PR spiv, EU lackey and Selfridges towel refolder Camoron, Clegg and Osborne's families all have their snouts in this trough), that they only consider temperatures from 1880, the end of the last cold spell, you get the hockey stick shaped temperature graph, that they like to beat us with. Unfortunately one of the world's top experts on using tree rings for climate data has gone back to 600AD and proved that our current climate's peaks and troughs are little different now to then!

The time period taken to prove climate change is like an alien measuring light hitting London for 2 minutes and concluding how it has light 24 hours a day and the human population is largely based there where they cleverly use a liquid coolant (River Thames) to keep to area cool as it is much cooler than expected from 24 hours a day sunlight. They then write a computer program that by tweeking the flow and heat capacity of the observed cooling inflow and outflow systems that are in every building (water and sewage pipes), this shows how this ecosystem works. It is at this level of knowledge that the whole global climate change politico rubbish is rammed down our throats at great expense to us.
