Mapping Climate Proxy Records

This is great: Mapped: How ‘proxy’ data reveals the climate of the Earth’s distant past. The interactive map is great, but also the background information. Obviously, this type of research is extremely important, after all: the past is the key to the future. That being said, nobody is really interested in this - people want to learn about the climate change impacts on their own lives. I used to include paleoclimatology as a significant part of my Climate Change course, but dropped it in-favor of exploring solutions in more depth.
