So you believe in all that science crap, right? OK, here's some science for you.
According to scientists, there was a time, called the Cretaceous, when there were no ice caps - even the Antarctic had a temperate climate (see graphic below, and if you can read science [which I doubt, "reading comics" is not a good predictor of being able to read science]
here's an article). There were shallow seas where now are plains, and the equatorial area was probably too hot to live. And you know what? There were millions of species of plants and animals that thrived on that "hot house" planet. They went extinct when an asteroid hit the planet, thus obscuring the skies and cooling the planet. Well, they didn't really go completely extinct, we eat their descendants' eggs scrambled for breakfast these days.
Well I think that as a species, on average, we are smarter than dinosaurs. (People like you don't really help to increase that average, though). If the dinosaurs were able to thrive on a super hot planet, why wouldn't we?
