Research indicates that the Arctic had substantially less sea ice
during this period compared to present Current desert regions
of Central Asia were extensively forested due to higher rainfall, and the
warm temperate forest belts in China and Japan were extended northwards West African sediments additionally record the «African Humid Period», an interval between 16,000 and 6,000
years ago when Africa was much wetter due to a strengthening
of the African monsoon While there do not appear to have been significant temperature changes at
most low latitude sites, other climate changes have been reported.
For example, atmospheric carbon dioxide grew by approximately 30 %
during the transition from the
most recent cold glacial period, about 20,000
years ago, to the current
warm interglacial period; the corresponding rate
of decrease in surface ocean pH, driven by geological processes, was approximately 50 times slower than the current rate driven largely by fossil fuel burning.
Much
warmer times have also occurred in climate history —
during most of the past 500 million
years, Earth was probably completely free

The
most recent 13 complete calendar
years, from 2002 through 2014, have averaged 0.18 °C (about 0.33 °F)
warmer than the 30 -

during that span was a
warming trend at the rate
of +0.05 °C per decade — which is also statistically insignificant.
If we have real - world evidence that temperatures were
warmer than today
during most of the past 10,000
years (and also
during several interglacial
warm periods
during the past few million
years), and if we also have real - world evidence that human civilization thrived
during these
warmer temperatures and the
warmer temperatures did not trigger so - called «tipping points» sending the planet into a climate catastrophe, then we have very little reason to believe that our presently and moderately
warming temperatures are now poised to send the planet into a climate catastrophe.

As for sea level rise: we see 30
years of steep global temperature rise
during a time when, according to Spencer Weart, whose views on this matter are shared by
most if not all climate scientists, «the temperature rise up to 1940 was... mainly caused by some kind
of natural cyclical effect, not by the still relatively low CO2 emissions...» (from «The Discovery
of Global
