Beetles

The video discusses climate proxies, focusing on beetles like the Piecillus as indicators of past climates. Beetles' survival at different temperatures helps reconstruct historical climate conditions. Fossil records show sudden climate changes, highlighting the importance of studying past climates to understand future changes. Russell Coop's work is mentioned as a contribution to this field.

What evidence suggests a sudden climatic change in the past?

Why is it important for science to learn about past climates?
