It is impossible to tell from this graph just what the temperature was at 550,000 years ago but it was clearly well into the blue range.
So sure, the earth has been much warmer, but man wasn't around to see it. I'm all for trying new things but warming the earth to prehistoric temperatures just to see what will happen doesn't seem like a good idea.

When you measure in hundreds last 100 years or so make chart look like we’re going to burn in hail….  . And you can see the chart trending down.
