Somebody tell me what caused

[Snapperhead]

the ice age 20 thousand of years ago to end .

I WANNA KNOW .

Lemme guess - some caveman let out some chlorinated R12 and R22 into the ozone which caused global warming in return made the ice age melt into what we have today ?

No .... then what was it ?

[DeltaT]

Women. Back then women were first taking classes on giving us the 'stare'...that cold, cold stare. The one where you know you are going to get it..or not. Too many women in one spot doing the stare - taught by Gloria and Jane - and the vibrations locked in and caused the ice age.

It took centuries of destruction to overcome that age...ya know, just about the same when you get the 'stare'............

The causes of ice ages remain controversial for both the large-scale ice age periods and the smaller ebb and flow of glacial–interglacial periods within an ice age. The consensus is that several factors are important: atmospheric composition (the concentrations of carbon dioxide, methane); changes in the Earth's orbit around the Sun known as Milankovitch cycles (and possibly the Sun's orbit around the galaxy); the motion of tectonic plates resulting in changes in the relative location and amount of continental and oceanic crust on the Earth's surface, which could affect wind and ocean currents; variations in solar output; the orbital dynamics of the Earth-Moon system; and the impact of relatively large meteorites, and volcanism including eruptions of supervolcanoes.

Some of these factors are causally related to each other. For example, changes in Earth's atmospheric composition (especially the concentrations of greenhouse gases) may alter the climate, while climate change itself can change the atmospheric composition (for example by changing the rate at which weathering removes CO2).

William Ruddiman, Maureen Raymo, and others propose that the Tibetan and Colorado Plateaus are immense CO2 "scrubbers" with a capacity to remove enough CO2 from the global atmosphere to be a significant causal factor of the 40 million year Cenozoic Cooling trend. They further claim that approximately half of their uplift (and CO2 "scrubbing" capacity) occurred in the past 10 million years.

Oh yea, I forget to add that when women deveoloped this 'stare' it cause men to get gas..that's when we first started farting. Then the earth developed a layer of CO2 so us men could protect ourselves.

Want proof? Just fart in a room and the women will leave.

cavemen were using unefficiant fuels for fires that were NOT sold by large corporations, and were breeding large air polluting dinosaurs for transportation .

Cavemen were breeding dinosaurs? That sure helps explain some of my friends. And that must have been when the ladder was invented too.

[wolfstrike]

by the way, the wood they were using for their fires was -4 SEER

Why Wolfer... Mate! I am bloody impressed.:D
Straight off the bat and not a whif of a hyperlink:).
Well done!

I myself thought it had something to do with woolly mammoth farts. They were BIG, those suckers and all that vegetation they ate would have made a shirt load of methane. Shoot me down if you must. It's... a personal theory of mine:o

[Jay 41]

They were using 4-seer wood way back then, guess we haven't progressed as far as we give ourselves credit for.

Good ol wikipedia, i like the woolly mammoth fart theory better though.

LOL:D:D:D Good theory.

[Snapperhead]

Certainly all of the above must be true , after all , its on the internet , I just read it right here .

Crap . I wish someone would have posted sooner about the ice age is comming back ... because I just spent 700.00 on the volvo's new compressor , condensor and evap . Pfft Thanks alot , wont be needing that anymore .

Lemme guess ... next you're gonna say gasoline wont be affordable soon huh .

Wonder where I can find wunna those wooly mammoths ? Might need to have a few of them in the back yard fartin methane into used refrig cans ....

OH Tool. You're such a pessimist!

On the other hand, My grand kids probable won't be.

Methane gas from dinosaur flatulence.

The end came because Al Gore sat in his 26,000 sq.ft. cave burning 12 times as much fuel to stay warm than his neighbors needed. He sat in his cave inventing the internet so he could communicate with his friends, Brad Pitt, Leonardo Dicaprio, Susan Sarandon and Sean Penn. They all rode giant brontosauruses instead of the smaller raptors that produced far less methane and berated the little folk that could only afford the out dated stegosaurs.

climate has always changed.

the RATE of change...is changing.

How do you know what the past rate of change has been?

[tonys]

apparently - through observation and measurement.

it comes from those people that write PEER REVIEWED articles, and use them big words - junior.

Theres another guy in politics that knows EVERYTHING about " change " and he's gonna fix it .

ahh darnit , what was that dudes name .

Osama ? ?

Crap , cant remember ....

[Snapperhead]

flatulence. DUDE ! Shhhhhhhhhhh , are you saying that causes ozone damage ?

Careful , them peoples in the senate might hear this and Ban that too .

Then how will we have fun in the supermarkets ....

Sorry fix, no second prizes. I've already done the fart joke:p
