Is continental drifting a cause of climate change?

In the past climate change has been a very short-term thing compared with continental drift. The have been several ice-ages in the last 100,000 years, and the continents have drifted imperceptibly in that period. On a scale of 100s of millions of years then continents drifting towards or away from the poles will of course see very slowly changing climate over that very long period.
