It's an interesting discussion. It seems our planet goes through natural hot and cold cycles. We have been in a hot cycle for some time... around 8,000 years ago, people lived on the land that is the English Channel and North Sea between England and Europe. The ice melted, this land flooded, it is now the sea. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doggerland
All global warming says is that we, as humans, have set the weather on a trajectory to becoming a little hotter than it has ever been during a hot-cycle before, at least since the earth began to support life. we have, or had, the potential to slow all this down, the planet would still have gotten hotter, but not so hot or not so quickly. We may, however, have already passed the tipping point. I think the real 'inconvenient truth' is that we caught on too late. We need to stockpile canned goods and hunker on down.
Time will tell. Should we worry? Only if we still have time to change it... otherwise, why bother?
