Then click on: Temperatures past 420'000 years. You see that in the last 420'000 years we had 5 global warnings of about 10'000 years and 4 global cooling of about 100'000 years! The Earth is oscillating every 110'000 years between most Teraton C in form of CO2 into the atmosphere ( Global warming: -330'000, -240'000, -130'000, now) and most Teraton C in form of methane hydrate+calcium carbonate on the ocean floors (Glaciations: -340'000, -250'000, -140'000, -10'000 before Jesus Christ)

You see that our planet temperature is now 3 celsius below the last maximum from -130'000 years before Jesus Christ. And you also see that we could soon start the next 100'000 years of global cooling, that will bring us to the next earth glaciation, in +100'000 after Jesus Christ!

What will happens the next 110'000 years?

For creating 7 billions peoples (=0.35 Gigaton humans), many Gigaton seafood has been eaten. So there are now less fishes in the oceans. Less seafood eat less phytoplankton. So there are now more phytoplankton in the oceans. More phytoplankton is reducing more CO2 into sugars and oils. More phytoplankton dies, fall on the ocean floors, and decompose into methane and calcium carbonates. But the methane does not bubble up: it freeze the cool ocean water into solid methane hydrate, stable under 15 centigrade under high pressures! Google in pictures: methane hydrate, then click on the blue world map "Energy from ice": you see that we have now 3'000 billions tons of carbon, fixed in methane hydrate! (3 Teraton C in methane)! Compare it with less 1 Teraton C of known (Natural gas +crude oil +coal)!

Now our 7 billions peoples are sending more and more fertilizer into the oceans. This will make the phytoplankton proliferate. This will change the albedo of our dark blue planet into a less dark yellow-green phytoplankton planet. This will make our planet absorbing less heat from the sun. And also much more phytoplankton will finally reduce the excess of CO2 into our atmosphere, transforming it into methane hydrate and calcium carbonate down the oceans floors. So our yellow green planet will cool down. And, 100'000 years after Jesus Christ, we will have the next glaciation, with many km of ice accumulating on all continents, and all ocean level will drop 1 km. This will make the ocean water more salty, as in the dead see. This will kill many fishes, creating more methane hydrates on the ocean floors. Finally, the ocean water will be so dense, 100'000 years after Jesus Christ, that, with the first really big earthquake, all the methane hydrate, less dense then the now salt saturated water, will suddenly rise up from ocean floors to ocean surface, where it will float, and then it will melt. So Teraton of methane will flow into the earth atmosphere. And so the next global warming will suddenly begin, for the next 10'000 years, melting more and more methane hydrate from the ocean floor! Until 110'000 years after Jesus christ!
