What Causes an Ice Age?
Although I'm sure many of us have heard the phrase "ice age," what exactly does that mean? Is it true we're in an ice age right now? Today we're exploring questions like these to better understand this climatic phenomenon.

@@tomasvrabec1845I get what you're saying, but from a purely semantic standpoint, Red Ice is correct. Swamps are a sub-type of wetlands characterized by inundated forested land, so trees are a requirement. Definitions aside, I assume waterlogged areas could probably occur without plants, but they might only be temporary features. I may be mistaken, but I believe a big part of what lets wetland stay wetland are the root systems of plants keeping the water and soil from eroding.

Stupid CO2 is not the cause of climate change in this massive earth. Do you even know how much CO2 is in the air by %? Nope? That's why you are so ignorant and following the POLITICAL agenda with the guise of science. Even Venus's hot temperature is not due to CO2, it just got a thick atmosphere which happened to be mostly CO2, and the hot temperature is most likely due to volcanic activity than greenhouse effect which is named very stupidly too. Greenhouse has nothing to do with visible and infrared light to keep itself warm.

its also as he said, while global warming and cooling is very natural the fact is that during the former events the earth had systems in place to make the warming and cooling happen. However currently we are the system that is causing global warming while at the same time destroying any system that could kick in and cause global cooling thus making the planet unable to cool itself off when a certain treshold is reached. So we should either a) slow down our production of global warming so that the planet can catch up with us. b) actively start taking siphioning our waste products back and become the global cooling agents ourselves or c) create equalibrium in what we produce, mean that we cool the planet as much as we warm it meaning no climate will change overtime. all of these require massive amounts of planning and foward thinking, and in our current system of short term profit thinking this aint working

why at 9:50 do you misrepresent the CO2 and temperature correlation by not illustrating the well documented 800 year lag?
Two important tectonic processes that lead to the Quaternary Ice Ages are missing: 1. The formation of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current about 34 ma (million years ago). Antartica was separated from Australia and South America, resulting in ocean passages between the continents (Tasmanian Seaway and Drake Passage). Antartica was cut off from warm tropical ocean currents and the cold circumpolar current caused the glaciation of Antartica in the Southern Hemisphere and a first drop in global temperatures. 2. The formation of the Isthmus of Panama about 3 ma. 3 ma the strip of land between North & South America was closed completely. This had profound effects on the fauna and evolution of animals (aka GABI - Great American Biotic Interchange), but more importantly it prevented equatorial tropical ocean currents from circulating around the globe, redirecting warm currents towards the poles. This lead to a second drop in global temperatures and the glaciation of the Northern Hemisphere (which is what we generally call the last Ice Age, in reality Earth has been in an ice age for about 34 million years, the Quaternary only describes glaciation in the Northern Hemisphere). Another very important factor of Ice Ages are the Earth's astronomical cycles, known as Milankovic cycles, which cause fluctuations of about 100 thousand years during which warmer interglacial periods succeed "real" ice ages. We are living in such an interglacial period right now, the Holocene, which has lasted for 11.700 years now, so the next age is probably 80-90 thousand years away.

We may die, but Earth will be around, the 400 ppm of CO2 we have today is nothing compared to what the Earth has had in it's history, like over 2000 ppm in the Jurassic period, or nearly 8000 ppm in the Cambrian.

Mighty Ant yup, we are going to keep adding CO2, so it will get much higher than that, potentially as high as 800 ppm by the end of the century and we could see really bad news.

Starfire Storm yes, but I think your forgetting the rate of increasing CO2, we could surpass 1,000 ppm within a couple hundred years.

John Peric why 0.5C? Current CO2 is at 413 ppm and we have already warmed by 1.1C. CO2 could rise enough to warm the planet up to 4C or hotter by 2100 on the current rate of warming. www.climate.gov/news-features/climate-qa/how-much-will-earth-warm-if-carbon-dioxide-doubles-pre-industrial-levels

John Peric they have gotten the 100 year projects right. If you look at models, they have been correct. climate.nasa.gov/news/2943/study-confirms-climate-models-are-getting-future-warming-projections-right/
Thanks for the break from all the corona virus videos. Best 14 minutes of the month!
I love these videos! Thank you!
5:45 are you saying we can combat global warming by putting dust in the atmosphere?

Yes and no, dust can form massive fires while making a shield from the sun making the temprature hot and cold

there are actually proposals to dump dust-like particles into the upper atmosphere in order to counteract global warming, this is also how nuclear winter works.

Because the ash and smoke block the sun it lowers the earth's temperature. In the Roman period there was a three year period where they didn't see the sun which coincided with the eruption of Krakatoa.
An absolutely stunning video! Amazing job.
seriously awesome video! Thanks so much for sharing!

Am I the only one that notices his voice is different this video? It's like his intonation is different. It's very distracting

He does this in a lot of his videos, in different ways even. It's super weird and I'm not sure what could be behind it.
