Saw something about this on the tube last night. I think they said the climate flipped about 15 degrees in 10 years. Climate can change in spikes, rather than slow trends...

Abrupt climate change
The Younger Dryas saw a rapid return to glacial conditions in the higher latitudes of the Northern Hemisphere between 12,900 – 11,500 years before present (BP)[2] in sharp contrast to the warming of the preceding interstadial deglaciation. The transitions each occurred over a period of a decade or so [Alley et al., 1993].

At least they earn the money by people volunteering to buy their products, unlike the state-funded "scientists" who slurp in the taxpayer OPM gravy train.

<Ahh..
but not out of $$$

Well paid out
by Exxon-Mobile..Western Coal
et al..
to second tier scientists

How do I get onto the Exxon-Mobility [maybe you mean Mobil] payroll?

For a couple of decades I have been explaining the effects of CO2 and carbon stripping from the ecosphere and Earth's one-way trip to a frozen, crystallized state and therefore how Exxon and SUV owners are performing a public service, putting the carbon dioxide back into the atmosphere where it belongs. Also, how Earth flips into an ice-age from one year to the next, not in geological time, which people used to think but are now seeing on the tube that it can be faster. But I haven't been paid by Exxon or anyone. That's a travesty. Al Gore roars around the world doing environmental miles, eating air-borne food during high speed food miles, staying in swanky hotel accommodation, while I develop the real explanations with no pay.
