I think the general consensus I have heard is that we'd be entering a cooling period if it were not for anthropogenic global warming. Today's rising temperatures are unprecedented in their rapidity, as well as the highest in thousands of years. It is too hard for life and civilization to adapt to this result of industrial greed. We entered a warmer period after the ice age over 10,000 years ago, and the oceans rose. Now they are rising again. The models have been relatively accurate, and can't be expected to be as exact as the skeptics demand. They say much more rising seas are ahead. The bulk of global warming has been deposited in the oceans. Warming waters and greater water vapor in the atmosphere resulting from global warming feeds hurricanes like Katrina and Harvey, and the many other deadly, destructive storms that have racked many places in the world recently.
In the very distant past, there have been much warmer periods, and life at that time was adapted to this. There must have been heavy storms and floods. Palm trees are well adapted to these times and are very resilient because they are well adapted to tropical climates.
