Question: which is the most wirdest climate change youve seen

Hi @izzy2014, I personally haven’t seen much climate change apart from the one we are seeing today… but we can look back in geological time to around 55 million years ago and we see a time called the Palaeocene. This time was cooler than today but in a very short amount of time, the climate warmed by about 6 degrees Celsius! This may not sound like much but at the moment, we are only seeing a 2 degree change. The whole world became like a greenhouse 55 million years ago- it would have been tropical in the Arctic!
