Learn about paleoclimate as derived from CO2 from ice cores and O2 from
seafloor seds. We're in an interglacial warming period. It's better to be
warming than dropping out of it into an ice age.

Shuffling between paleotemperature and paleoclimate is invalid.

Ice cores are good, but too much conclusion from too little evidence
can be a beartrap. Imagine someone investigating summer earth samples
from the Great Plains. Would he guess that Europe was going through
massive floods at the same time.

Same with the deal about inter-glacial warming period. That's a
suggestion from the climate record ... but we may have just completed
our exit from glaciation periods, right?
