There is a whole lot of shite that happened on/to this planet over billions of years we have no clue about but a small handful of crazy homo sapiens think 50 years of using crude is going end it.

fossils were just something the Jews buried in 1924.

Great post, thanks for sharing, and one hell of a rabbit hole. Read this on a flight following link after link and ended up reading about Himmler's obsession with finding Atlantis in the north sea and building a cult on its archeology.

Large-scale megaripples have been recognized in a petroleum industry 3D seismic horizon near the Cretaceous/Paleogene (K-Pg) boundary. These features occur at the top of the Cretaceous/Paleogene Boundary Deposit (KPBD) which is a “cocktail” of mass transport deposits and debris widely recognized as resulting from the impact of a large bolide 66 million years ago (Ma) creating the Chicxulub impact crater on the northwestern corner of the Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico. We examine the seismic data and associated well-logs and conclude that the features are megaripples caused by the tsunami resulting from the impact. These megaripples are preserved as a result of having formed below storm wave base and being buried by Paleocene deep water shales. This association suggests that the Chicxulub impact is the single cause for the KPBD, the megaripples, and the end of the Mesozoic.

Massive asteroid hit earth and make big boom.
Big boom makes big waves that travel to New Orleans.
Big waves kill all the dinos chillin on Bourbon Street.
The end.

No one is saying humans are going to end the world, lol, but we may make it tough for 8 billion people and counting to inhabit it...
Historical warming and cooling of the Earth happens naturally over long periods (aside from impacts of meteors, etc). The problem is by burning fossils fuels we are rapidly increasing CO2 to levels last seen when there was no ice on Earth at sea levels were 20ft higher than they are today. There is your problem...how many people currently live within 20ft of sea level...a good few, and where are they going to go?

Recall the climate scientists of the time when this chart began thought we were without doubt going into an ice age, and would all be starving from overpopulation and lowering crop yields by now. Is the earth warming? Perhaps. Is it catastrophic? NO!

Such a refreshing topic other than Wuhan Bat China flu and fricking masks.

Joe Rogan has a pretty funny podcast where a paleontologists melts down watching one of this dude's videos.

I member. Lol
That was a good episode too.

The upper Midwest, including the present course of the Mississippi River, was an inland sea as well. The limestone bluffs in Illinois and Missouri attest to that. I’m just not sure about the geologic timing.
