Another ice age?

Staff

Jim,

The Antarctic volcano may do just the opposite. When volcanoes erupt they throw a lot of fine particles in the atmosphere. This has shown to cause a cooling due to reflecting the sunlight back into space. Some say that because we cleaned up the smokestacks, global warming was accelerated and has caused the Greenland icepack to melt as it is in line with the prevailing winds from North America.

I think there will be another ice age eventually.
