This is being promoted by msn & other lefty outlets to qualify the CO2 basis of their junk science, rooted in continuously biased 'models' to reinforce their ridiculous orthodox bias.

This is an excerpt from the study published on Geology:

The two plate motion models diverge in their predictions of the timing and progression of Rodinia break-up, ocean-basin age, ocean-basement depth, sea-level evolution, and mid-ocean ridge (MOR) carbon outflux. One model predicts MOR outflux and ocean basin volume−driven sea level lower than during the Late Cenozoic glaciation, while the other predicts outgassing and sea level exceeding those of the Late Cretaceous hothouse climate. The second model would preclude a major glaciation, while the first model implies that the trigger for the Sturtian glaciation could have been a combination of an extremely low MOR outflux (∼9 Mt C/yr) and Franklin LIP weathering. Such minimal outflux could have maintained an icehouse state for 57 m.y. when silicate weathering was markedly reduced, with a gradual build-up of MOR CO2 in the atmosphere paired with terrestrial volcanism leading to its termination.

Duration of Sturtian “Snowball Earth” glaciation linked to exceptionally low mid-ocean ridge outgassing

I do know one thing. Plants need CO2. And a green earth requires enough of it to keep it that way.

Low volcanic activity and low CO2 count.

The last ice age was caused by the dinosaurs switching from gas powered SUVs to electric vehicles, lowering atmospheric CO2 and cooling the Earth too much.

[Da Coyote]

The “scientists” revealed their theory. Their theory is...uh...right there in the D- range.

[cqnc]

Pure conjecture at this point ouch. YCFS

[DesertRhino]

More of that “fragile delicate balance” crap. Meaning we must tip toe around lest the earth be destroyed.
This is a religion we are dealing with.

[Bobbyvotes]

Next ice age will kill more mammals by orders of magnitude than any global warming caused by cycles of Sun activity. If humans can delay next ice age by 1%, it will mean mammals can live a bit longer.

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

Had nothing to do with the big ball of burning hot gas in the sky.

[crusty old prospector]

FYI - this was during the Precambrian. There wasn’t much life around but some algae.

[norwaypinesavage]

"Australian geologists have solved the mystery of what triggered and sustained an extreme ice age that gripped the Earth more than 700 million years ago. The study, published in the journal Geology, reveals how the Earth's thermostat works and how sensitive the climate is to changes in atmospheric carbon dioxide... The team used the EarthByte computer models to explore the ice age's cause and duration."

You don't SOLVE anything with computer models, particularly those that are preprogrammed with guesses as to the causes of glaciation (such as low CO2). If you program something in, you get the same thing out. When used properly, computer models can give technical insight, they can never give "proof".

If I wanted a research grant from the federal government, I would draft a proposal on how homosexual abortionists positively impact the climate by limiting world CO2 emissions.

I’m surprised Planned Parenthood isn’t getting money from the EPA yet.

What we call “science” today would pass as a science fair project for my 7 grade teacher.

[muir_redwoods]

Low CO2 would be a problem but high CO2 is regulated by plants. As CO2 climbs, plants flourish. The ratio of CO2 to the rest of our atmosphere is like comparing 1-1/4 Oz to a ton.

[FatherofFive]

They found that the onset of the ice age coincided with a period of very low volcanic activity

This is bizarro logic. The last 'little ice age' was caused by a volcano in 1250s and the associated volcanic winter. They seem to want it both ways.

[Ruy Dias de Bivar]

Popular Science reported on this during THE COMING ICE AGE hoax back in 1980!

From POPULAR SCIENCE, Feb 1980..

Changing the weather intentionally or otherwise weather modification..(Earth cooling vs Greenhouse effect)

“Do you suppose we can learn enough, soon enough, to pull off a balancing act with the CO2 blanket saving us from another ice age?”

AND WE DID IT! Stopped THE COMING ICE AGE in it’s tracks! Now they are weeping about too much CO2!

Earth is not 57M years old. If you extrapolate from the 20K - 40K RC values they’ve gotten for dinosaur soft tissue (and just plug that into the standard 24-hour clock model), you get an age of a few hundred thousand to a few million years, but not ten million and certainly not 57 million.

[Sacajaweau]

Yeh...Saw that was the "point" of their report. They're so full of cr**. Wonder how much Grant Money was received.

We are talking 57 million years ago..they talk like it was 10 years ago.

[redangus]

So now we are being told we need to be carbon neutral. Isn’t that kind of like what they are saying happened 700M years ago.

[nagant]

The study’s lead author, Dr. Adriana Dutkiewicz from the University of Sydney, said: “Imagine the Earth almost completely frozen over. That’s just what happened about 700 million years ago; the planet was covered in ice from the poles to the equator, and temperatures dropped.
~~~~

Well that’s just horse puckey. Salt water would not freeze that way. The reason why today’s continents freeze and thaw in 100,000 year cycles is the distribution of continents. Today the southern hemisphere is all but devoid of continents. The Milankovitch orbital cycle shows that whenever the southern oceans point at the sun during earth’s closest orbital paths to the sun it warms the earth and we experience interglacials.

Interglacials last 20,000 years and ice ages last 80,000 years.
