Just curious---thousands of years ago there was 2 mile thick ice on
the property I own here in western Washington. Since this no longer
is the case, doesn't it appear we have been in a global warming
situation since way before the industrial revolution. Could we blame
this whole thing starting on the original inhabitants of earth?

No, the recent and rapid rise in temperature is driven by the recent
rise (and rapid) rise in CO2 in the atmosphere, due to the Industrial
Revolution. The original inhabitants are blameless.

Still curious what caused the ice to melt. Any estimate as to when I can start a banana plantation here in SW Washington state? Also, kind of looking forward to launching my Electro 2 from Chehalis and routinely finding good lift immediately so I can soar the Cascades all day and return without running out of battery.
