(I.e: ice sheet lag time, meltwater pulses, ect).

The Younger Dryas was preceded by warming, and the warming caused meltwater pulses to flow into the Atlantic, essentially changing the direction of the Gulf Stream (glacial Lake Agassiz redirected it meltwater flow from Gulf of Mexico to St.Lawerence, hence AMOC change) , and thus causing dramatic cooling (I’m not taking into account the ridiculous hypothesis of a meteor impact). This along with 8.2 Kya events are known as D-O cycles/Heinrich Events, which isn’t happening now as IIRC ocean currents and air currents regulate temperature. While I think it would take millennia for change to occur, I also wanted to point out anomalies in the recent geological timescale of fast occurring events. I believe that we don’t really know too much about negative feedback loops. Do all feedbacks amplify or reduce in radiative forcing?

So you think all current climate scientists are wrong about the current trends?
