Welcome to my website. Thank you for visiting. Cycle50.net refers to the fifty climatic cycles within the Quaternary. The Quaternary is a period of our recent geological past, characterised by major glacial cycles from expansion to retreat. Currently, we are in an interglacial period and hence warming. Had you been asked this question in the 1940s or 50s, you would have been told that we were colding and heading into another ice age. I am less concerned about getting warmer than I am about the possibility we could tip into Global Colding, driven by reconfiguring oceanic currents. Given Earth’s climatic gyrations, I am sceptical that we can, through human intervention, be confident of influencing the climate. If you want to read more deeply into the alternative view, I encourage you to download the Shrinking Glacier Conundrum in the book section.
