From the article
We don't exactly have records from millions or billions of years ago, so I don't know why you think this article is lying to you.
We sort of do have so e idea when using the fossil records and core samples in ice. You can tell a lot about the atmospheric content an infer temperatures and rainfall.
That's all well and good, I'm not trying to deny that those methods work, but booty was claiming that the article telling us this year is the hottest on record was a lie without any real clarification why he thought that.
So either he read the he only read the headline and wanted to feel smug about it, or he was trying to downplay the seriousness of the situation by saying it used to be worse millions or billions of years ago. I don't really care which, the outcome is the same either way.
