Say we have been collecting atmospheric data for 100 years, so show me data for 100 million years & we'll talk. Who can say this has not occurred prior; what was it like before the dinosaur's demise. Tell me about the cooling period just before the War of Northern Aggression. The magnetic poles will change and so might the title angle, so have the poles experienced their greatest weight and are not shifting back to nominal weights? Who knows as we just do not have enough data to speculate. Speculate we can, but to develop a model and predict the future we cannot. The data is much over sampled as 1000 years of date, albeit more like 100 years or cycles, is pale in comparison to the required 100 million years.

Kind Regards,
