As for your "ocean acidification" alarm-ism:
The Myth of ‘Acidification’ of Oceans

Ok I'll bite..
So your article claims that CO2 is good for the oceans as it encourages plant growth. Once again on the surface, this sounds great. Yet it isn't.
The author of that article is very much right, the added CO2 does increase plant growth.. Unlucky for us, is the fact that the plant growth that is increasing is algae. Alge is over running the oceans at an alarming rate. Killing coral reefs and other plant life around the world, when it blooms it also kills fish.
Does that sound good for us?
Also you mention we have to look at Geological time lines. Ok.. that's fine and dandy but we aren't dealing with geological time lines. the CO2 levels are rapidly increasing and have done so since the industrial revolution as we have added more and more pollution into the skys. We have speed up the rate that normally would have taken thousands of years to achieve.
It doesn't matter what happens over 5 thousand years when a super volcano randomly blows up and throws all the levels out of whack. We are that super volcano..
