Are we heading toward another Little Ice Age? – Woods Hole ...
WEBSep 19, 2022 · During the Little Ice Age, volcanic activity blocked solar radiation from reaching the Earth, which, combined with naturally reduced solar activity, the build-up of solar-reflecting ice (the albedo effect), and other potential factors, all conspired to cool the northern hemisphere.
We’re Due For Another Ice Age But Climate Change May Push It …
WEBMar 27, 2017 · There have been five big ice ages in Earth's 4.5-billion-year lifespan and scientists say we're due for another one. The next ice age may not occur for another 100,000 years.
