Earth's last Glacial Maximum period began around 33,000 years ago,

Earth's LAST Glacial Maximum???

You mean there's been more than one? What happened in between?

But rapid regional warming saw the ice sheet collapse over a period of just 500 years,

Whoa. What caused that?

“33,000 years ago”

I owned beachfront property back then.

There was global warming 13,500-14,700 years ago? That is NOT Trump”s fault!

40 miles inland and 600 feet above sea level. Not worried.

This has to be one of the worst Fake News articles I have ever read. At first I had missed that it was MSN. It was so poorly written that I assumed that it was some juvenile scare blog with a readership of less than a dozen. It confuses past with present, regional with world-wide, and much more. The author clearly doesn’t understand the concept of a “tipping point”. He (,she, it) doesn’t even seem to understand that when an ice age ends, the glaciers melt.

Grade: F

Today, the Earth’s axis is tilted 23.5 degrees
from the plane of its orbit around the sun.
But this tilt changes.
During a cycle that averages about 40,000 years,
the tilt of the axis varies between 22.1 and 24.5 degrees.
Because this tilt changes,
the seasons as we know them can become exaggerated.

We are thus suppose to fear global warming more, in spite of today’s ice sheets in the northern hemisphere being only shadows of what they were when they covered most of Eurasia.

I think our age is an age where the real end of the last ice age actually takes place; leaving a greener world capable of feeding a larger population.
