The Climate, Environment and Energy Thread

[Thryleon]

I don't know about what LP posted, but i listened to a podcast on iceages and they agreed with Thry and his trivia master. We are still in the latter stages of an ice age.

I cannot recall the exact definition and where it came from, but if i had an educated guess at it, it would be the fact we still have ice on our caps.

From memory there was 3 stages. ice age, middle bit aka lesser ice age which we are in now and non-ice age. Obviously the technical jargon is not there, but the point remains.

That was the rationale too in his explanations.

The technicality was that we have periods where the ice levels increase.
