Just put them in the time frame. If a map of 1600 may look different (during the Little Ice Age), then it may have something to with something else altogether... namely: peat and salt. People dug up large swaths of peatland and mined them for both peat and brine. The peat and brine were both used for trade. This, of course, brought the land down and areas did get flooded but were later on won back over the years using the well known process.
Indeed: my country didn't drown during either the Roman Period or the Mediaeval Warm Period which was warmer than today. How do we know ? There are records of viticulture up to Friesland and Groningen Province. If you would try the same today - the Great Rivers would be as far as you can actually go and still have a decent harvest but even in most years, they would still fail. Indeed: after 1500, much of the viticulture in the Southern most part of the country, collapsed because of the cold spell that would last 350 years.

This is being needlessly politicized. Climate change is the most pressing issue of our time, and it effects everyone. The fact that some people will lose oil and natural gas jobs is small potatoes compared to the destruction of the entire Earth, such that organized human life itself is being threatened. We spend our time arguing about history, literature, art, etc. and none of that will mean ANYTHING if the Netherlands, Britain, Ireland, parts of Germany, Florida, California, northeastern India, several islands, etc. are under water. I wince in fear when I think of that level of loss of human knowledge.
But apparently, climate scientists, along with all of the world's major scientific journals, are running a hoax because they refuse to entertain the claims of an electrician who graduated from Georgia Tech, and every other dumb-fuck who appoints themselves an authority on the Earth's climate with no scientific credentials whatsoever.
No amount of shouting, "But muh JORBZ" will change my mind.
Nobody is saying that Westerners per se are at fault. This is an issue that effects EVERYONE.

WHY GOOGLE'S CENSORED SEARCH ENGINE FOR CHINA IS AN ETHICAL MINEFIELD
It seems that the tech giant is giving up its values in order to make money in China
The Great Firewall of China is the largest-scale internet censorship operation in the world. The Chinese state says the firewall is there to promote societal harmony within an increasing population of billions of people. It considers the internet in China as part of its sovereign territory.
Eight years ago, Google withdrew from China, pulling its search and other services out because of country’s limits to freedom of speech. But it is now planning to relaunch a heavily censored version of its services in China, according to a whistleblower who spoke to online news website The Intercept.

You are insane if you think Chinamen have more freedoms than Americans.

The media is mainly distracting us from real problems of humanity (corruption, liberalist bullshit, wars, hunger, etc.) by speaking about supposed global warming.
When I was a kid they were saying there would be no bodies of ice by 2020, polar bears would be gone and the ocean level would rise.
Thankfully, none of this is about to happen.
Besides, if one day our planet or, at least, the world as we know it, changes dramatically, there wouldn't be much (if anything) to do and I don't think it would have anything to do with this sort of stuff.
I am not saying we couldn't care for our home better. We certainly could throw less garbage in the oceans, cope with hunger, a cure for AIDS and cancer must be found, we should stop killing for nothing animals we don't consume (such as lions, crocodiles, tigers, rhinos, elephants, pythons, etc.), I agree. But this mass hysteria about global warmings, global coolings, seeking another planet where we could live is just too much and is used as a distraction source by governments and their media servants.
