Drawing on a recent Science study spanning 485 million years of climate data, this reflection argues for the necessity of historical perspective in today’s climate debates. While acknowledging contemporary concerns about warming and sea-level rise, it notes that Earth is currently in one of its colder long-term phases and that both temperature and CO₂ levels have fluctuated dramatically across deep time. A striking counterpoint comes from a Native American speaker in Vermont, who reframed climate change not as a cause for moral panic but as a call to human adaptability—something her people practiced through ice ages and warming epochs alike. By contrasting short-term anxiety with millennial and geological timescales, the piece contends that rootless thinking—whether about climate, politics, or history—leads to vanity and agitation, while true understanding requires depth, continuity, and perspective.
