Record breaking DNA shows Mastodons roaming a hot North Greenland 2 million years ago.

Excerpt:
"he survival of some DNA for two million years is astounding all of itself — breaking the record for oldest known DNA by nearly a million years. Before this, the oldest DNA was thought to be 1.2 million years — beyond which all the global DNA of all the species that ever lived was assumed to be dissolved into unreadable mush.
But now we have found enough of the ancient code to identify a whole ecosystem on the northern edge of Greenland that no one expected to find. Apparently giant elephant-like Mastodons were wandering the far northern parts of Greenland — practically as close as they could get to the North pole without swimming.
At the time, the world was not just 1.5 catastrophic degrees warmer than today, but a full nuclear 10 to 17 degrees hotter.
Strangely life on Earth wasn’t suffering the sixth mass extinction."

Maybe Man-made Climate Change IS RUBBISH!

how old are the glaciers said to be melting, millions of years??
how old is the Earth??, 4.5 Billion years old
so what was there before the "melting" glaciers?
could there be cycles of glaciers forming and melting, long before human kind ever showed up??
why is this cycle the work of Man and not nature??
in the Sahara Desert are signs of people having lived in it, 4,000 to 5,000+ years ago
cave painting show people and animals that can no longer live in the desert
the climate changed, the desert formed, people moved to the Nile Valley and started the Egyptian civilization that created the Pyramids (along with other great structures
again this happened BEFORE our tech civilization
it is likely that over the past thousands of years the Sahara has gone from lush vegetation to desert over and over, the cycle repeating
i won't mention the cycles of Ice Ages and melts, perhaps were are in between two Ice Ages now...
likely so
and on TV
there is a show about bringing back animals from the last Ice Age
the ground there is melting
the fact is that those animals COULD NOT LIVE THERE if the land was ALWAYS frozen
at some point that land was ice free, allowing animals to live and thrive there
as it got colder, the animals changed and finally died off
you followers of the Global Warming religion think history began only a few hundred years ago
Climate Science: Once Greenland was warmer and we have the fossil and archeological receipts to prove it.
Also Liberals: ReeeeEEEEEeeeeeee!!!!!!!
