  • Researchers from universities across the country are searching for a continuous core of ice that is 1.5 million years old - or even older. National environmental correspondent David Schechter reports air bubbles trapped inside that ice can tell scientists what the atmosphere was like then and help us understand our own changing climate today.

    The study of Anarctica is important. So much frozen in time for eons that we have not discovered and probably in almost perfect preservation because of the extrememe cold.

  • @williamrbuchanan4153

    Think, the oldest remaining is being relieved compression as it melt on contact with Crust heat. We are loosing time and evidence by that reason. Compression is on and off by weight above and melt beneath. Highest mountain regions area, as on normal conditions , could be an easier way than looking back hundreds of thousands of years. We have not got a record of high carbon content as a comparison. So how does it mean we are going to be in danger of too much carbon.
    The Earth is full of carbon dependant things . Why , if out in open being rained down on Earth surface , will it be different . . .? Example centre of gravity of a spinning mass Earth , in the influence of Solar energy, in orbit following the Sun. Nothing else gives us energy but Solar, or what Solar gets we get some too.
    Hang a balloon up with a line around it middle . Stick a bit of putty above the centre line so way.
    Measure the tilt on the equator line . Put back the equal weight putty same distance below centre line .just one thing different , space has no Earth gravity. Slight puff of gas can align a spacecraft’s attitude to a docking aperture. Move ore over the distance South to North billions of tonnes over 10 to 20,years . Tilts axis of a rotating. Mass I, Earth, in space easily. Wobble occurs , up and down to alleviate the imbalance of Earth. But exposes more surface to heat n night -259 c space temp. Being attracted to more surface to suck out that heat excess. By unhindered greed of humanity to destroy its home planet for the IOU called money. Our ball and chains, of greed.,

      @fauxque5057 You are exhibiting the classis symptoms of "human myopia." Our brains didn't evolve to FULLY understand and appreciate changes at geological time scales. Or even multi-generational (human lifespans) timescales. Same problem with Exponential Growth... our brains sinply aren't wired to see dangers that happen that slowly...
      Not until they "ramp up" and start affecting us in a visible, day-to-day, often dramatic manner.
      We humans overcame this limitation using our *critical thinking* skills as well as our technology (we can predict the future with some level of accuracy).
      Make no mistake: The various effects of climate change are here. The changes are documented, indisputable, and irreversible. Big Agro, world militaries, insurance companies... they are ALLLLLL factoring climate change into their plans and strategies. YOU - like many of our fellow humans - just don't "see" the effects because you and the rest of the West are relatively comfortable in life.
      I guess you will only "see" them when YOUR specific living room is literally underwater 😆
