Thanks. I'll continue to just think for Myself.
Me too but I'll base my thinking on facts like these.
  1. Ocean currents establish climate.
  2. The ocean is the largest collector of solar energy.
  3. The ocean stores the majority of the planet's heat.
  4. The ocean is the largest feature of the planet.
  5. The mass of the ocean is 300 times the mass of the atmosphere.
  6. The ocean contains 1000 times more heat than the ocean.
  7. The ocean heats the atmosphere.
  8. The atmosphere does not heat the ocean.
  9. Physical evidence shows that when ocean currents change, the climate changes.
  10. Physical evidence shows ocean currents are responsible for northern hemisphere glaciation.
  11. If heat circulation gets disrupted from the Atlantic to the Arctic, the planet cools.
  12. Physical evidence shows ocean currents are responsible for northern hemisphere deglaciation.
  13. If heat is being circulated from the Atlantic to the Arctic, the planet warms.
  14. Physical evidence shows ocean currents are responsible for the initiation of the Little Ice Age.
  15. Physical evidence shows ocean currents are responsible for the end of the Little Ice Age.
  16. The current warming trend began 250 years before the industrial revolution.
  17. The geologic record is littered with examples of naturally caused warming and cooling trends.
  18. Empirical climate evidence shows the planet cooled for millions of years with >600 ppm of CO2.
  19. The last interglacial period was 2C warmer with 26ft higher seas and 120ppm less CO2 than today.

All of these arguments support the idea that the oceans are a stabilizing element. All of those changes are long events for millennials.

Number six is an interesting one. The oceans contain 1000 times more heat than....wait for it. The oceans?!? Ummmm...

Numbers 10 and 12 refer to climate change measured in the 1000's of years. It seems pretty stabilizing to Me.

Number 16 makes My point for Me.

Except when they state that changes to the ocean currents (i.e. disruption of heat transport from the Atlantic to the Arctic and restoration of heat transport from the Atlantic to the Arctic) result in abrupt climate change.

It's so commonly known Dave Borlace did a video on it.

Does the temperature record of the past 10 million years look stabilizing to you?

Nope. Read the papers.

Unlike the fake AGW narrative, changes from ocean currents (5C top 8C changes) are abrupt as in decades.
