While most of us are worried about the planet getting warmer and the polar caps melting, some are apparently looking at the bright side. Their battle cry? Climate change is natural and worse things have happened before.

According to an article published in Canada.com, the only thing constant with climate, as the case is with all things in the world, is change. The planet runs from hot to cold throughout the eons, and a lot of it depends on solar climate. The bottom line? Everything's fine and can't be helped, so just chill out.

The Canadian website reports that it was warmer by 3 degrees celsius 6,000 years ago and all ended up well leading to today. 10,000 years ago, the planet's temperature rose 100 times faster than it does today, and everything's all dandy when we came around.

It was also explained that even if resources are spent on reducing carbon dioxide emissions, the sun and cosmic rays ultimately determine how hot or cold it gets. The sun, according to the site, does not glow in constant fashion and there are such days when our home star is dimmer or brighter. When it's brighter, there is less rain, while when it dims down, cosmic rays penetrate the atmosphere and cause more cloud formation for more rain.

The article even suggested that as big of a concern as global warming is now, it might only be a matter of time before global cooling becomes an issue. That, of course, may be some millennia away as climate change takes its sweet time when it comes to showing us its different flavors. Will the woolly mammoths make a comeback? Who knows?
