Cosmic Journeys - Earth in 1000 Years

This edition of COSMIC JOURNEYS explores the still unfolding story of Earth's past and the light it sheds on the science of climate change today. While that story can tell us about the mechanisms that can shape our climate. it's still the unique conditions of our time that will determine sea levels, ice coverage, and temperatures.
Ice, in its varied forms, covers as much as 16% of Earth's surface, including 33% of land areas at the height of the northern winter. Glaciers, sea ice, permafrost, ice sheets and snow play an important role in Earth's climate. They reflect energy back to space, shape ocean currents, and spawn weather patterns.
But there are signs that Earth's great stores of ice are beginning to melt. To find out where Earth might be headed, scientists are drilling down into the ice, and scouring ancient sea beds, for evidence of past climate change. What are they learning about the fate of our planet... a thousand years into the future and even beyond?
30,000 years ago, Earth began a relentless descent into winter. Glaciers pushed into what were temperate zones. Ice spread beyond polar seas. New layers of ice accumulated on the vast frozen plateau of Greenland. At three kilometers thick, Greenland's ice sheet is a monumental formation built over successive ice ages and millions of years. It's so heavy that it has pushed much of the island down below sea level. And yet, today, scientists have begun to wonder how resilient this ice sheet really is.
Average global temperatures have risen about one degree Celsius since the industrial revolution. They could go up another degree by the end of this century. If Greenland's ice sheet were to melt, sea levels would rise by over seven meters. That would destroy or threaten the homes and livelihoods of up to a quarter of the world's population.
With so much at stake, scientists are monitoring Earth's frozen zones... with satellites, radar flights, and expeditions to drill deep into ice sheets. And they are reconstructing past climates, looking for clues to where Earth might now be headed... not just centuries, but thousands of years in the future.
Periods of melting and freezing, it turns out, are central events in our planet's history.
That's been born out by evidence ranging from geological traces of past sea levels... the distribution of fossils... chemical traces that correspond to ocean temperatures, and more.
Going back over two billion years, earth has experienced five major glacial or ice ages. The first, called the Huronian, has been linked to the rise of photosynthesis in primitive organisms. They began to take in carbon dioxide, an important greenhouse gas. That decreased the amount of solar energy trapped by the atmosphere, sending Earth into a deep freeze.
The second major ice age began 580 million years ago. It was so severe, it's often referred to as "snowball earth." The Andean-Saharan and the Karoo ice ages began 460 and 360 million years ago. Finally, there's the Quaternary... from 2.6 million years ago to the present. Periods of cooling and warming have been spurred by a range of interlocking factors: the movement of continents, patterns of ocean circulation, volcanic events, the evolution of plants and animals.
The world as we know it was beginning to take shape in the period from 90 to 50 million years ago. The continents were moving toward their present positions. The Americas separated from Europe and Africa. India headed toward a merger with Asia. The world was getting warmer. Temperatures spiked roughly 55 million years ago, going up about 5 degrees Celsius in just a few thousand years. CO2 levels rose to about 1000 parts per million compared to 280 in pre-industrial times, and 390 today.
But the stage was set for a major cool down. The configuration of landmasses had cut the Arctic off from the wider oceans. That allowed a layer of fresh water to settle over it, and a sea plant called Azolla to spread widely. In a year, it can soak up as much as 6 tons of CO2 per acre. Plowing into Asia, the Indian subcontinent caused the mighty Himalayan Mountains to rise up. In a process called weathering, rainfall interacting with exposed rock began to draw more CO2 from the atmosphere... washing it into the sea. Temperatures steadily dropped.
By around 33 million years ago, South America had separated from Antarctica. An ice sheet formed. In time, with temperatures and CO2 levels continuing to fall, the door was open for a more subtle climate driver. It was first described by the 19th century Serbian scientist, Milutin Milankovic.
He saw that periodic variations in Earth's rotational motion altered the amount of solar radiation striking the poles. In combination, every 100,000 years or so, these variations have sent earth into a period of cool temperatures and spreading ice.

[@kathyyoung1774]

y2knoproblem Cycles of warming and cooling as a result of changes in earth title, path around the sun, sun activity, and other factors.

[@michaeldeierhoi4096]

@y2knoproblem. No actually the climate of the last 22,000 years has been explained in detail, but you never read it! Did you expect someone would deliver the story directly to you? At any rate here is what you don't understand about the climate for the last 22,000 years. 22,000 years the earth was still deep in an ice age especially in the northern hemisphere. The glaciers did not even begin to retreat from that latest of glacial periods until about 3,000 years later. By 10,000 years ago most the ice had retreated to the Arctic. The Milankovitch cycles returned to a pattern closer to today's and because of warming of the oceans CO2 was released back into the atmosphere which amplified the warming started by the change in the Milankovich cycles. CO2 returned to a level of 270 ppm where it remained stable until the start of the industrial age when it began to rise. CO2 has gradually increased since then and starting about 1900 began cause slight warming in the climate. This was not apparent until about 1980 and since then the warming has been a steady upward trend as CO2 continues to rise.

[@kathyyoung1774]

Great explanation! I hope s/he reads it1 The warming and cooling cycles of the earth are tens of thousands of years long, not a few years long. One extra hot summer doesn't mean the earth is warming. One extra cold winter doesn't mean the earth is cooling. An occasional year of bad hurricanes doesn't mean anything about the long cycle.

[@michaeldeierhoi4096]

@Southeastern777 Your explanation needs some help so how about this? During the ice ages CO2 did follow temperature. When it started to cool BECAUSE the Milankovitch Cycles reduced the sun light reaching the earth the oceans also began to cool. This allowed the oceans to naturally absorb CO2 from the atmosphere which amplified the cooling. And when the M Cycles changed and allowed more sunlight to reach the earth the oceans began to warm and the CO2 was returned to the atmosphere to AMPLIFY the warming. But this is not what is going on now. WE humans are the ones adding CO2 to the atmosphere which in turn is forcing CO2 into the oceans. That CO2 in turn changes to carbonic acid and bicarbonate. Over time like, decades, temperatures increase depending on how fast CO2 is added to the atmosphere. The heat increase in the atmosphere is also adding heat to the oceans warming the oceans. It is true that water vapor is a stronger green house gas, but it doesn't raise temperatures by itself because if it did we would see a viscious cycle of ever increasing temperatures as when temperatures rise the atmosphere holds more moisture causing temps to rise again and so on. THAT is NOT what we are seeing. Water vapor is a feed back. It is the GHG's of CO2 and methane increasing which actually lead to an increase in warming with water vapor enhancing the warmth by increasing humidity. Ever notice how 90 degrees F FEELS much warmer at 90 % humidity then 90 degrees at 0 % humidity?? That's the effect of water vapor at higher concentrations. The temperature is still 90 degrees, but it FEELS warmer. This is all thoroughly explained at realclimate.org

[@kathyyoung1774]

I remember that. I'm still laughing. Instead we had about 15 years of few hurricanes. They can't tell you if it's going to rain in 4 hours. I don't trust their projections for 20 years from now.

[@jkfz5661]

I think we will be living on earth for a very long time before we inhabit another planet, simply because it is far far easier to sustain the livability on our planet than to establish livability on another one. The effects of low g and atmospheric inconsistencies on other planets alone would take a very long time to deal with compared with altering our own climate which is already relatively fine tuned for our survival regardless of its fluctuations.

[@glich123456]

I'm not a scientist or anything but isn't pollution one of the reasons why the caps are melting? And if so why didn't they mention it?

[@DotaLife]

The direct effect of pollution over the melting is the increase of CO2 in the atmosphere which increases the global temperature. They mentioned it, the "industrial age" is basically the point where because of industry the world began polluting the atmosphere with CO2 along with other shit. The increase of CO2 amounts because of pollution is one of the causes, which is why an international law has been adopted that gives each country a limit of how much CO2 they can produce in a year. Many countries that have a small developed industry can actually sell the rights to another country to pollute on their account. But as the video says, beside the pollution there are other causes as well, the pollution being the only one we can directly influence though.

[@auchucknorris]

thats were the debate lies, no one is arguing that climate is changing, but the cause of it is very uncertain and hottly debated, yes co2 does have an effect but how much is unknown

Ah yes, the usual suspects (links) jolly good! All I can say is: haha, have fun with your "big head"

[@christertokvam5409]

I see so many ppl talking about the last 10-20 years. This is a big planet, and if we inflickted so mutch changes that we see a big diffrents in so sort time, we whould be dead whitin 200 years. this time scale is mutch bigger. but the things is that we alone cant do it, in the best we just help it along. just think about all the co2 that are in the ice. But non the less. this is doomed to happen whitout us or not. better to find way to adapt then to try and stop the cycle of our dear planet;)

[@Patricia-un6kv]

Apart from agreeing with you, I find your comment quite fascinating because of how you've spelt some of the words. Obviously, English is not your first language, but your gist is a good use of the language, and very comprehensible. Stay well, wherever you are...;-)

[@desertflower5724]

I do love these information educational Vids! Thank you so much to the narrator whose voice is smooth & inviting! Without our scientists, we'd know hardly anything, practically nothing about our beautiful planet, BLUE, as I like to call her. We should all care a lil more about our only place called home. Without Blue, our wonderful Earth, we'd be nothing, nobody, history, a sure thing of the past. We should all care & do what we can... ★ "What the world needs now, is LOVE sweet LOVE!". † A big thank you to God who gave us this special home! Mars or nowhere else will ever be home to humans, animals, & plants. Only BLUE! 💓. 🐕. 🐈. 🌾. 🌱.

Not only did this video not show the Earth in 1000 years, but it didn't even go into much depth. It would have been nice to see impacts of rising climates on ecosystems and extreme weather. Instead we got the narrator telling us that the melting ice will heighten water levels over and over.

... So... Antarctica is a complete separate continent on its own? Not just a huge ice sheet? Good lord... there's probably diamonds... oil... and other rare resources there...

[@UndergroundDev]

+Dave Strider (Future) ....

[@WeedDragon420]

+Dave Strider (Future) ... OIL??? Time to wage war against the penguins

[@patriot7260]

Bob Bobson I mean it would make sense... you find resources on a continent... unless it's just a huge ass sheet of ice. In which case then never mind. But if there's like, rock, and soil and other things like that under the snow and ice, then there's more than likely an entire continent of resources we can take advantage of if we could get over bitter cold.

[@MrMistercrow]

+Dave Strider (Future) Yes, and Aliens too.

[@anthonylongoria2638]

+Dave Strider (Future) its mainly just a continental glacier, so we can find minerals but it'd be extremely expensive and hard to get oil from it through all of the ice, wind and so on. so yes, there are resources, but it's probably easier to steal them from other countires

[@ronaldbrown9638]

So what your saying is climate change is normal ? 🤔

[@ronaldgraham4587]

Who said what when why? Ice ice more ice

[@PerJustert]

For the earth, climate change is normal. For the living life on our planet, the human-created climate change is dangerously abnormal.

[@iknowyoureright8564]

Per Eskelund human created??? Did you watch the video?? Temp increase of 1C in the whole of the industrial revolution. Carbon levels in the atmosphere are only 1/3 of what they were pre last ice age. What exactly do you think we could do to have an affect on the whole planet?? Nothing, that is what. Everything is cycles, there have been many nice ages before, and many warnings. How do you explain them?? But yet, “this” specific warming. (Of only 1C) is so crazy and Bad?? If humans think they are the cause of the weather then they seriously need to check their egos! Lol. We are a little blip.

[@PerJustert]

@@iknowyoureright8564 Sorry. I'm from Norway and trusted google translate. It should have been "man-made climate change". My mistake. But apart from the fact that the increase in temperature is closer to 1.5 degrees C, than 1, you elegantly fail to mention that the increase in temperature has occurred over the last 100 of the 200( give or take a few) years since the industrial revulsion occurred. In the first hundred, it was more or less stable.

7 metres of sea level rise would not happen overnight so there would be ample time to move or build up the land to compensate. 1000 ppm of CO2 is ideal for photosynthesis so not something to be fearful of.

1,000-2,000ppm Complaints of drowsiness and poor air. (from a safety site)

[@mray1255]

Shit for brains

[@GregNoblin]

Ah yes. Something you're not hearing is more and more people are now saying we're cooling and about to enter another ice age. And the Antarctic temperature rise may be due to the multiple active volcanos under 2 miles of ice.

[@thedeviluknow]

'People" perhaps, people who know what they're talking about? No.

[@CommanderHulio]

what if global warming is a conspiracy and we are helping the environment for nothing?

[@birdofhermest]

CommanderHulio A conspiracy for healthy athmosphere i suport that.

[@peterwilkinson4761]

We are actually still in an ice age as ice sheets currently happen in antarctica and greenland

[@dr.stinkypoo1705]

Dude the chances of a Ice age is so slim. I mean with the greenland and the artic melting because of global warming. Back then there were ice caps as big as the empire state building now the ice caps we have today are nothing compared to that and the ice caps we have today are melting so it would be a 1% chance of another ice age!

[@claredegroff1491]

Why doesn't the sea level rise every summer when we loose a good portion of sea ice. Not to mention the gravitational pull at the equator. I would think at least around the equator sea levels would be higher during summer months but try to find it on the web. Good luck

[@DevilTravels]

I think it has something to do with the different hemispheric climates and the shear volume of the ocean.

Very informative, but oh man! What a drag to listen to! It's like one of those relaxation recordings. Maybe if I were smoking some opium.
