Ray Dalio, the investing guru, says he’s been most surprised by events that hadn’t happened before in his lifetime, but have happened repeatedly if you look a century or two back in history. Global warming is not only new in our lifetimes but also in recent recorded history which makes it particularly hard to anticipate and plan for.

The "Medieval Warm Period" is well-documented, as is the "Roman Warm Period". Sadly, they and their significance as well as positive effects are being downplayed by activists lately.

Those climate events are worth studying but may have been regional instead of global in scope.
