Climate Myth	What the Science Says
"It should be understood by anyone professing an interest in climatology that the object of study has been around longer than man and the climate here has varied radically in the last 40 million years." 18 August 2009 (Source)	Climate reacts to whatever forces it to change at the time; humans are now the dominant forcing.
"In the Eocene carbon dioxide levels were several times higher than they are currently." 18 August 2009 (Source)	Climate has changed along with CO2 levels through geological time.
