I don't deny that it could be a climate factor. It accounts for the seasons.
But it's too regular to account for climate.
Earth tilt does not coincide with the Ice Age cycle test cores which measure
CO2. At the end of a cold period and beginning of the warm period in a cycle,
CO2 is at it's lowest in the atmosphere. This is because of the proliferation
of plant life, especially forests. Halfway through the 10,000 year warm
period, plant life starts losing its ability to absorb CO2. This is a slow
process. By the end of the interglacial ( warm ) period, forests start
weakening rapidly due to natural circumstances, and CO2 begins to greatly
increase in the atmosphere.
We are at this point now. Humans are not responsible for this. It is a natural
cycle. But cutting down the forests is insane because it accelerates the
results of the process which include unstable weather and rapid climate
change. It is the INSTABILITY which is problematic for animal life. Especially
humans whose food and water supply depend on climactic regularity.
Secondly, earth tilt is a regular phenomenon. It doesn't account for CO2
amounts being variable at different times in the past irrespective of the
earth's tilt. In other words, there were times in earth's history when high
CO2 coincided with different " tilts."
There is a geologic record of this in tree rings, and a longer one in ice
cores, and mud cores.
We don't need to be disputing this. It's just not that important compared
to other possibilities.
