More importantly, we should hope that Gaia in suicidal state has not depleted the ecosphere so much that we are about to freeze right up, perhaps starting as early as 2020. The ice age has now been running for a few million years and the interglacials are a lovely respite, albeit they have all too short a stay.
As they mentioned, with more ocean, and little land, more methane, more water vapour, more CO2, the Earth was in Balance, near enough for government work and Al Gore. It did not freeze despite the weak sun. Fortunately, the sun heated up as the atmosphere depleted and changed from methane and CO2 to air and water. Also fortunately, the ecosphere produced plants such as corn, oranges, strawberries and bananas for me to eat. It's impressive that corn, tomatoes and peaches knew to make themselves delicious. Imagine having to eat lawn clippings or something.
It's surprising that the scientists are surprised that the Earth did not freeze up back in the day, despite the weak sun. That should be a hint to them that Earth is NOT in balance, contrary to Global Warming dogma.
Their concern is that humans will upset the delicate balance by producing CO2. Their false premise is that the climate was ideal and "in balance". They are wrong on both. Earth is on a one way ecosphere depleting trajectory to snowbound doom and there never has been balance. There has been a constant depletion of carbon into the ground.
