Some 900,000 years ago, humans nearly went extinct.
Globally, December, January and February came in at 0.78C above average. But the last three months are part of a much bigger climate change picture.
Scientists have discovered in Antarctic ice a strange link between past levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide and centuries-long global pandemics, reminding us of just how easily humans - or the lack thereof - can shape planet Earth.
