The new formulas describing the relationship between CO2 content in the atmosphere, temperature and sea level are derived using climatic data from different time periods within the last 20 million years.

All data used have previously been published in acknowledged papers, and should therefore be well known. References are provided to simplify source check.

To ensure human activity does not affect the results, all data used are from time periods when the climatic effects of the man made increase in atmospheric CO2 content were still insignificant or non existing.

Climatic data from the following time periods are used:

1) Pre industrial (50 years ago, 1967)

2) The ice ages

3) Prehistoric periods of warmer climate (3-4 & 20 mill years ago)
