That is why I said 'somewhat (stable) climate.' I put stable in paranthesis - for a want of a better word. But your graph proves my point between 1870 and 2005 the mean temperature hovers around 29 C if you look at the graph after 450 kya it changes more drasticly. I know that is comparing the last century to thousands of years, but when you see that there were dramatic change in the past and and the fluctuation of the Earth's temperate around the average temperature seems is less dramatic, you should understand a little what I was trying to mean by (stable).

Your chart also shows that the Earth climate had dramatic changes in the past without modern industrial age and it's greenhouse gases. So if the Earth climate change in the past wouldn't some of those same factors change Earth climate now? I can't put the whole blame on mankind throwing the Earth climate out of whack and raising the mean temperate of the planet.
