I don't see how they relate biological homeostasis to climate. If homeostatic systems are functioning, like in blood sugar or oxygen control, their values are kept in a very tight range near the setpoint. In contrast, temperature has varied greatly over the millennia, as have ocean acidity and other variables, thereby showing Earth is very much not like an organism.
