What Causes an Ice Age?

Показать описание

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.

The production quality of this is just stunning. The editing and and the scenes really complement the whole plot of the video. Very nice work.

2:57 "The veil slowly lifted and the Earth transitioned back to a swampy lush jungle"
6:24 "For the first time in Earth's history plants began to grow on land"
It might have been warm and wet after the Huronian Ice Age but I don't think there were swamps or jungles.

It's unimaginable that 300 million years ago, the first dinosaurs started to exist.
And there's been an ice age that lasted 300 million years too.... 🤯🤯🤯

It's mind-blowing to learn that life and its evolution have directly influenced global climate, changing it drastically. This was an incredible video!

Imagine that there is a civilization milions of lightyears away with roughly the same tech that we have and they are watching our planet right now but our planet still has dinosaurs

Ah yes, the Cryogenian Ice Age - also known as Hoth.

The masterful use of text and image, audio and video, shows an uncommon understanding of how these interrelate in the “real time” that the brain requires to apprehend and comprehend incoming data. The natural processes by which our world was formed are complex and often difficult to visualize. By so superbly aiding our cognitive processes in this task of assimilation and integration, this production makes a significant contribution to the study of natural history. Heartfelt thanks to all involved!

Just found your channel. As a big fan of PBS Eons, it seems like your content is a perfect natural extension of that kind of subject matter. Great stuff!
