Before we can enter an ice age, we first have to exit the current ice age.

We are in an ice age and have been for about the last two and a half million yeas.

Uhmm, what?

We are in an interglacial - a period between major glaciations - but still in the same ice age.

Let's just face it - Man is the cause of global warming.

20,000 years ago glaciers started melting that resulted in the Great Lakes. There were maybe 2 million people worldwide, burning wood , and they got us in the mess we are in today.

It has nothing to do with, well, the Sun.

It was warmer something like 7,000 or 8,000 years ago. At that time, sea level was a couple meters or so higher than today.

More than a few meters, the current coastal plains of Texas were underwater and the coast was closer to DFW area.
Years ago they discovered the skeleton remains of a swimming dinosaur while working on the DFW airport

I think that would have been long before the Holocene, wouldn't it?

before the Holocene, the dance scene, the dating scene... all of them.

Climate change idiots are 99.9% made up of lefties and dems. It's in their DNA to lie and spin the truth.

The older I get the more I admire the wisdom in old nursery rhymes. Some things never change.

In all seriousness, what the hell happened to y'all in the 70s.

60s was the year of rock n roll, beautiful cars. Women's clothing was sexy, mens clothing was sharp. The style of the 60s was sophistication.

Then the 70s came about and its like people just went full ret***. Cars sucked ass, the clothes should have been burned and the music was god awful. What the happened?

Must of been the drugs. We'll go with that. Blame the drugs.

Not going to read it, yet I feel confident it's conclusion is that we need more tax funded research into this, which pays their salaries. And they also need more control of societal policies, feeding their egos.

What a truly shocking discovery.

Actually, the 70s was the high point of great rock music, it just was also the era of disco.

Considering 25% of incoming UCSD students could not answer the problem 7+2=x+3, I will take their mathematical models and predictions with a slight grain of salt.

Cars are easy to explain. The EPA and pollution controls happened

Wake me up when we can measurably determine that the sun is dying or dead.

True. But, the 70s was also an era of some incredibly cool cars. There are the Firebirds, Camaros, Corvettes, Challengers, Chevelles Gran Torinos, and on and on. I still remember when I was about 17 and got to climb into my sister's Datsun 260Z and take it for a drive. It was truly a thing of beauty.

Entropy guarantees everything is dying but I would hazard a guess that daytime is a pretty good indicator that it is not dead.

So global warming and global cooling both cause sea levels to rise?

They forgot to tell us they are idiots - these fools don't even know that more ice equals sea levels receding - but the sheeples are dumb and believe it

My older bro had a 1970 GTO. Talk about a muscle car! That car was fast and pretty stable at high speeds.

An ice age was/has always been more probable than a massive global warming event (the big lie) - and way more impactful/disastrous. The earth has been through numerous ice ages and there will be plenty more to come. Humans have no control over this.

---

Yeah, those were caused by mammoth and mastodon farts.

---

Earth will, with 100% certainty, have another cool down period (ice age), probably hundreds or thousands of years from now, and there is nothing humans can do about it. It is relatively cyclical.

Randall Carlson is a good primer to listen to about the subject of Earth's heating and cooling cycles, and many other fun topics. The Rogan interview of Richard Lindzen is a good listen too.

This is also not some admission that we need to spend trillions of dollars on the climate change hoax because we don't. Just that ice ages have happened all throughout earth's history and it does cause a major impact (negative) on humans and life on the planet, during those times.

---

Actually, we are IN an ice age right now (Late Cenozoic Ice Age). We're just in an interglacial period of warming. And if the historical ice core records are correct, then we're getting pretty close to the end of this interglacial.

I never paid any attention to any of that bull***** Didn't watch Captain Planet. Didn't watch Ferngully. I was pissed when they got rid of the McDLT, though.

Ok, Constanza...

Well, if another glaciation (the correct term) is on the way, we'd better start cranking out the SUVs! Pronto!

Didn't the communists get the memo? AI requires mass amounts of energy. Real energy from oil and gas, not the BS stuff they try to force on everyone.

A sweet song to be woken up to, or a loud obnoxious ringing sound.

I guess the best thing to do is bankrupt the economy throw trillions of dollars to stop the cold. Thank God it's not heating up anymore. I was getting hot.

The North American plate (on the whole) is rising (see Rocky Mountains growth), due to overriding of the Pacific plate. 34 million years ago there was a sea connecting the gulf of America to the artic.

Interesting fact, if you walk around Brazos county you will find (rounded) quartz rocks. The nearest source of quartz is in the DFW area. Most of these rocks were not transported by people but by floods and normal erosion from the DFW area.

The ozone layer problem didn't just "not happen". The world took action against ozone depleting chemicals and solved the problem.

This is just one study being interpreted by "science journalists" so we should take it with a huge grain of salt. But it seems like what they are saying is not that it would be a global ice age, or even global cooling, but regional cooling in Europe due to less heat being shipped north from the equator, which of course means even hotter temperatures in the tropics.

If you look at the latitude of England, and compare that same latitude in Canada, you see that England is far warmer than its latitude would suggest, due to the warm ocean current. If that stopped, then yes, England and the rest of Northwestern Europe would have a really bad time.

The "world" of humans has never taken collective action for or against any singular thing.
