The term climate change is widely used but often understates the severity projected in secular climate literature. Within mainstream science, climate change frequently functions as shorthand for catastrophic climate change, with careful phrasing employed to minimize questioning of the prevailing consensus. The observational record does indicate a clear warming trend since the mid-twentieth century; however, creationists do not dispute these data. Instead, the point of contention lies in the secular interpretation of paleoclimate records, particularly those extending far beyond the period of human observation. This paper reexamines Cenozoic Era sediment and ice core records, which secular scientists cite as evidence for catastrophic climate change. It will be shown that the Biblical record—specifically the Global Flood and post-Flood Ice Age—offers a superior explanatory framework for paleoclimate data, challenging the historical basis for climate alarmism.
