Around 14,500 years ago, toward the end of the last ice age, melting continental ice sheets drove a sudden and cataclysmic ...

A group of scientists think they can now predict when the next ice age could grip Earth, but don't worry, it's not for a very long time. An ice age should begin in about 10,000 years, but its ...

Samples drilled from deep beneath the sea have revealed just how much global sea levels changed following the last ice age. Melting ice caps in North America, Antarctica and Europe caused sea ...

A new study suggests that Earth’s next ice age should begin within the next 11,000 years - except our impact on the planet may delay it, potentially by thousands of years. Scientists have long ...

A new analysis suggests the onset of the next ice age could be expected in 10,000 years' time. The findings are published in the journal Science. An international team, including researchers from ...

The last glacial maximum, which lasted from 26,500 to 19,000 years ago, was the most severe phase of the Late Pleistocene ice age. During this period, massive ice sheets and polar ice caps covered ...

Kerem Yucel/AFP/Getty Images Earth's last ice age ended around 11,700 years ago and a new study predicts the next one should be 10,000 years away. But the researchers say record rates of fossil ...

A new analysis suggests the onset of the next ice age could be expected in 10,000 years’ time. An international team, including researchers from UC Santa Barbara, made their prediction based on a new ...

On the 23rd anniversary of the "Ice Age" franchise, let's take a look at some of the funniest memes that blend a ridiculous ...

On its own, Earth would shift toward another ice age in about 10,000 years, scientists say. But humanity’s greenhouse gas emissions may have radically shifted the climates trajectory.

Without any human influence, scientists believe the next ice age would have started in about 10,000 to 15,000 years. This is ...
