I don't mean to disagree or argue, but I still think this is a delicate point.

We are moving Earth out of the climate in which humanity emerged, survived, lived and prospered.

Some point out how terrible it would be to stop using oil and coal. Which it would. But on the other hand - we survived 200'000 years without oil and coal, but we never had to endure the climate in which we are speeding right now.

I think we mostly have the same point. I just find it worth noting the climate has not been this hot ever in the whole of mankinds existence.
