Interesting site! And a pleasant idea to veer with the voque and simlpy enjoy the exceptional, summerhot , rainless month of april we are having. Good! A swim and a sunbath without guilt .

One little edited question:
[Earth's climate and atmosphere have varied greatly over geologic time. Our planet has mostly been much hotter and more humid than we know it to be today, and with far more carbon dioxide (the greenhouse gas) in the atmosphere than exists today. The notable exception is 300,000,000 years ago during the late Carboniferous Period, which resembles our own climate and atmosphere like no other.]

I have no notion of all those millions af years , but in the period written about her above, were there humans around or only life forms that could wel support this heat and humidity? Time scale Triassic gives:Dinosaurs,mammals,birds. Mammals being also humans?

BTW, the seawater is icy cold, worth no more than just a dip of the toe.
