• Unlocking the secrets to ending an Ice Age

    Updated: 2012-04-28 12:25:12
    Guest Commentary by Chris Colose, SUNY Albany It has long been known that characteristics of the Earth’s orbit (its eccentricity, the degree to which it is tilted, and its “wobble”) are slightly altered on timescales of tens to hundreds of thousands of years.

Is it because of more awareness directed towards CO2? But then, why is more attention directed towards CO2?
