The Donner party is a testament to trying to long term predict weather is a shell game.

And howler monkeys are dropping dead out of trees in Mexico because of the heat. What's your point?!?
SlickRick--So extinctions happened before humans were humans, are we to assume humans have not caused ANY extinctions? Carrier pigeons? Dodo birds? Tasmanian tigers? Lots of others would like to have a word.

Tell us brother. You know the truth, right?

Hunted to extinction is a different topic, try to stay focused.

Last summer was the hottest I have ever expeienced here, 109f though I did experience 116f in Nebraska as a kid.

I hear "more hurricanes" and think less heat and no drought.

I wish I still had my pirogue. I used to take it out on the Vermilion river as a kid.

Don't forget habitat destruction and fragmentation. Try to stay focused.
Humans are certainly capable of changing ecosystems AND conditions in the atmosphere. Nature is a finely tuned system and changing one thing can lead to a cascade of consequences. See the coastal erosion problems we have been facing for decades.

Coastal erosion? You mean the levees?

[Big Tyme]

Coastal erosion? You mean the levees?

Yeah. The ones we built and changed the balance between subsidence, erosion and deposition. Weird how wee little humans actually changed a whole system like that in less than a century.

For decades is correct, more like Centuries.

The Cajuns of Nova Scotia faced this problem in in the 1600's and found a solution.

Water extraction from aquifers caused sinking coastlines, not rising tides. (See Mexico city) Alexandia Egypt sank by natural causes. None of this in a modern phenomenon.
