What's this post doing on uber-alarmist DeSmogBlog?

Could Nature Be Planning a Sudden 'Surprise Party'? | DeSmogBlog
The Northern Hemisphere briefly emerged from the last ice age some 14,700 years ago with a 22-degree-Fahrenheit spike in just 50 years, then plunged back into icy conditions before abruptly warming again about 11,700 years ago. Massive "reorganizations" of atmospheric circulation coincided with each temperature spurt, with each reorganization taking just one or two years, according to a new study.
So are we no longer supposed to believe that a .6C degree rise over 100 years proves that humans are dangerously warming the planet?

Are we no longer supposed to believe that animals and plants can't handle abrupt climate change?

Are we no longer supposed to believe that we can somehow "stop" climate change by trying to lower the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere?
