Is Earth Entering Ice Age at Leah Tom blog

Is Earth Entering Ice Age. For the past two and a half million years, earth has experienced regular ice ages, but with carbon dioxide levels now over 400 parts per million, the next ice age is postponed for a very long. Large amounts of methane wafting from tropical wetlands into earth's atmosphere could trigger warming similar to the termination events that ended ice ages — replacing frosty expanses. we should be heading into another ice age right now, columbia university paleoclimate doctoral student michael sandstrom told live. Oddly enough, an ice age has gripped the earth for most of the last 2.6 million years, and we’re currently experiencing an unusually warm break. The trajectory of earth’s orbit is very slowly shifting the northern hemisphere away from the summer sun, gebbie says, so that could help preserve some arctic ice. The last one began about 2.5 to 3 million years ago. Indeed, studies of the past million years indicate a repeatable cycle of earth’s climate going. That’s right, we’re living in an ice age. When most of us think about ice ages, we imagine a slow transition into a colder climate on long time scales.
