Even a 10 foot tall glacier would not be a happy thought. If we didn’t have global warming, we would have those glaciers.
Here in Indiana we had them also. Three different waves of them receding and expanding. The earth is not static.
Which poses the question how this modernized society will handle the next ice age ? More and bigger snow blowers, or suddenly no summers, no food, extermination and yet another burial by ice.
Yup,and the funny thing is that the glacier over Central Park as well as the one in Indiana disappeared *long* before the advent of central heating,etc.
Don't know if you've ever been to Central Park but I get there quite frequently (it's one of my favorite things in NYC).The documentary I mentioned made reference to the many strange (strange to *me* at least) rocky outcrops seen throughout the park...little mountains you could call them.The documentary said that they were dragged there from elsewhere and deposited where they sit today.I think it said that NYC was basically the southern limit of the travel of that particular glacier.
Pretty interesting IMO.
Texas has had a cooler summer than we’ve had in years.
