Today we hear the term "global warming" everywhere. Yet we've had periods in relatively recent history when the climate was much warmer than it is today.

Global climate shifts are the result of the almost fluid-like dynamics of the Earth system. The climate system is basically a set of feedback loops and reversing mechanisms within the Earth system that creates a loose set of weather patterns over distinct areas.
