Hi Paul
 
I think that is inaccurate.  That extended period was only 1-2 degrees warmer at most and we had neither the population nor the rapid industial heat ramp up that we are currently experiencing.  The "majority" of climatologists that I am seeing agree both to that and that this ramp up will cause our climate to overshoot that 2 degrees quite badly.
 
One to 2 degrees coming on so violently will cause quite a number of disruptions in our weather, which we've already begun to see, however, if we can restrain ourselves sufficiently in time to stop a greater increase, the damage will be somewhat manageable.  There were actually 2 of those warm periods, the second was the time oif the Dark Ages when England grew grapes.

There is no doubt we need to lower our carbon footprint. This will happen either as a conscious effort or as an act of omission.>> Paul the Skeptic>>
