That Damn Columbus, Part I: He caused global cooling. It’s really tough to keep up with the lunatic left’s global warming/global cooling theories. Check this one: “The European conquest of the Americas decimated the people living there, leaving large areas of cleared land untended. Trees that filled in this territory pulled billions of tons of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, diminishing the heat-trapping capacity of the atmosphere and cooling climate,” says Richard Nevle, a geochemist at Stanford University.” Of course, scientists believe the Atlantic ice pack began to grow in about 1250, which predated Columbus’ first voyage by about 242 years, but why let science get in the way of a theory that simultaneously promotes global warming and condemns an important historical white European male? That’s like winning the daily double for a liberal.

the biggest change in climate probably occurred when Homo Sapiens sapiens killed off Homo sapiens neanderthalensis who stayed in caves eating raw meat and tubers and didn't leave a carbon footprint.
But I thought the Europeans cleared all sorts of land as they pushed west?
God, following these people is so confusing.
If a bear shits in the woods, These Global climate morons will be there with a new theory and an anal thermometer to produce verifiable results...One thing I now for sure, if the temperature is heating up, its because stupid scientists and liberals wont shut up and are producing tons of CO2.
