Second, the fastest warming events ever discovered are called the Dansgaard Oecshger events (D-O events). We know of 25 of these D-O events within the last 100,000 years ... but most importantly, temperatures rose at a phenomenal rate of 10 C in only 70 years ... that's 1 C every 7 years! And like with the PETM ... CO2 rose after temperatures did. No one knows why either of these events occurred ... but we do know CO2 makes life on earth healthier.

I have to give you credit.....you’ve pushed the Weather Club meetings so much on this thread....that I’m actually debating on attending one. My own general institutional knowledge coupled with knowing when to yield to others....that may have more in a certain area...can only benefit myself and others. Sometimes on here (thread blind) I find myself getting dumber by the minute having read certain posts at times.
Could you post your meeting dates/times and locations at some point?
