re: #149 Cheechako
So, can anyone answer the question: “What is the “normal” temperature and normal range of temperatures for the earth and the oceans?”.
It’s irrelevant what the “normal” temperature is or even if such a thing exists.
But to answer this, the ‘range’ of global average temperatures going back to about the end of the Precambrian is 5° C to 25° C. We are in the middle of that obviously, but closer to 5 than 25.
