We are arguably in one of the most important blips in the history of mankind.
We are also in among the most important events of Earths history, just releasing all that trapped CO2 back into the atmosphere reversed many millions of years of robbing the biosphere of CO2, it will affect earth for many millions of years to come with more plantlife and warmth, maybe dinosaurs will be back in 100 million years if we release enough CO2 since they do better in warmer richer environments.
Birds are the only surviving branch of dinosaurs. They well in all climates, but specifically well in very cold ones.
