Isn't there data on global climate/temperature from the fossil record? I don't think this is so ludicrous.

/shrug no matter what is said here people will always claim they have the 'data'

i suggest we all stop wasting our time believing our 'data'
And what else do we have to guide us, the voices in our heads? Or is that just you ?

In the absence of data all you have are hunches and opinions, which do not make the best guidance for decisions that affect millions if not billions of people.

There's conflicting data, but some of it is better science than others, and there's a lot to be said for the understanding that comes from the process of interpreting that data.
