geologic time and polar ice cap time are far different things. It is true that in the earths 4.5 billion year old history it was hotter in Precambrian times, BUT humans, primates, mammals or any endothermic organism didn't and couldn't survive under those conditions.
For our species, in its 130,000 year history, this is the hottest ever recorded, and way off the cyclical charts.

(Jan 9 07, 14:32)what in the sam hell are you talking about?
Precambrian!? That's super ancient.
CO2 levels during the Mesozoic Era, which includes the Jurassic (maybe you've heard of it from the movie), Triassic and Cretaceous Periods. Endothermic animals lived during this time period as well among dino's. It's subcategorized and range from 65 to 250 million years ago.
We are currently still in the Holocene Epoch, part of the Quaternary Period, part of the Cenozoic Era, etc. in case you were wondering. And there are dated rock formations in this geologic period that contain higher levels of CO2 than what you see today for various reasons, one of them being vulcanism.
