WUWT
However, Excess Winter Deaths are not the worst threats to humanity. The
glacial cycle averages about 100,000 years, consisting of about 90,000
years of the glacial period, when mile-thick continental glaciers
blanketed much of the Northern and Southern Hemispheres including
Canada, Russia, Northern Europe and Northern USA, and about 10,000 years
of interglacial, the warm period of the present. Earth is now 11,500
years into the current warm interglacial, and our planet may re-enter the glacial period at any time. ......
Increased atmospheric CO2, driven by fossil fuel combustion
and/or other causes, will have little impact on the onset of future
glaciation. Climate is not highly sensitive to increasing atmospheric CO2. Paradoxically, CO2 concentrations are not alarmingly high; in fact, atmospheric CO2 concentrations are alarmingly low – too low for the long-term survival of terrestrial life. Photosynthesis of C3 food crops ceases at 150ppm – CO2 starvation."
