What is an ice age?
Key points:
The last ice age was 12,000 years ago
At that time the sea level was 120m lower than today
The onset of an ice age is related to changes in the Earth's tilt and orbit
The Earth is due for another ice age now but climate change makes it very unlikely
An ice age is a time where a significant amount of the Earth's water is locked up on land in continental glaciers.
During the last ice age, which finished about 12,000 years ago, enormous ice masses covered huge swathes of land now inhabited by millions of people.
Canada and the northern USA were completely covered in ice, as was the whole of northern Europe and northern Asia.
At the moment the Earth is in an interglacial period - a short warmer period between glacial (or ice age) periods.
The Earth has been alternating between long ice ages and shorter interglacial periods for around 2.6 million years.
For the last million years or so these have been happening roughly every 100,000 years - around 90,000 years of ice age followed by a roughly 10,000 year interglacial warm period.
The onset of an ice age is related to the Milankovitch cycles - where regular changes in the Earth's tilt and orbit combine to affect which areas on Earth get more or less solar radiation.
When all these factors align so the northern hemisphere gets less solar radiation in summer, an ice age can be started.
Are we due for another ice age?
Based on previous cycles the Earth is probably due to go into an ice age about now. In fact, conditions were starting to line up for a new ice age at least 6,000 years ago.
"If you look at what was happening prior to the industrial revolution, summers were actually getting colder in the northern hemisphere. They've been getting colder for at least the last 6,000 years, so we were definitely on that trend," Dr Phipps said.
But that trend has now been comprehensively reversed because of greenhouse gas emissions, according to Dr Phipps.

072820210112 - Delta variant triggers dangerous new phase in the pandemic
Delta variant triggers dangerous new phase in the pandemic
By Kai Kupferschmidt, Meredith WadmanJun. 23, 2021 , 3:00 PM
From New Delhi, the variant has quickly spread, and it now looks set to sweep the globe in what could be a devastating new wave. In the United Kingdom, Delta already makes up more than 90% of all infections; it has driven COVID-19 case numbers up again after a dramatic decline and led the government last week to postpone the final stage of its reopening plan.
The two effects—increased transmissibility and immune evasion—are hard to disentangle, but

How climate change 'loads the dice' for heat waves
This week's sizzling temperatures may herald a climate reality that scientists thought was still decades in the future.
The intensity of the heat, particularly in a region of the country known for its mild conditions, has been shocking, said Nicholas Bond, a research scientist at the University of Washington and Washington's state climatologist.
"The tropical cyclones tend to disrupt the jet stream all across the Pacific Ocean," O'Neill said, adding that they can affect both high- and low-pressure systems. "If we get a tropical cyclone, we're three times more likely to get a high-pressure ridge set up close to where we see this one."
Average temperatures in the Pacific Northwest have warmed by roughly 1.3 degrees since 1895, according to the University of Washington's Climate Impacts Group, and most cities in the region feel more than 2 degrees warmer in the summer than they did in 1970.

A deadly autumn
Predictive modeling created by the University of Washington’s Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation suggests Murphy may be right. Under the IHME scenario for New Jersey, by late September and continuing through November as many as 9,000 people will be infected daily — although not all of these cases would be diagnosed — a rate not experienced here since early April 2021.

CANT VACCINATE DISEASE CVD - 33-year-old woman who was fully vaccinated against COVID-19 has died from the virus in a rare "breakthrough" case. 072720212303
33-year-old woman who was fully vaccinated against COVID-19 has died from the virus in a rare "breakthrough" case.
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says that fully vaccinated people are "much less likely" to be infected with COVID-19, but that a "small percentage of people" will still contract the virus.
The Pfizer-BioNTech, Moderna, and Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccines are the three that are currently authorized for emergency use in the U.S., and the CDC says that all three offer protection against "most" variants of the virus.
