Next ice age would hit Earth in 11,000 years if it weren't for climate change, scientists say
Notably, a 1976 study found geological evidence showing that two of Earth's parameters — obliquity and precession, or changes in Earth's axial tilt and how the axis wobbles around itself, respectively ...

The next ice age is coming in 10,000 years — unless climate change prevents it
"Such a transition to a glacial state in 10,000 years' time is very unlikely to happen, because human emissions of carbon ...

Study Reveals How Earth's Orbit Triggers Ice Ages, And There's One in The Next 11,000 Years
Earth's history is a roller-coaster of climate fluctuations, of relative warmth giving way to frozen periods of glaciation before rising up again to the more temperate climes we experience today.

The distinct role of Earth’s orbit in 100-thousand-year glacial cycles
The findings highlight the roles of precession, obliquity, and eccentricity – factors influencing the tilt and movement of Earth's axis, and the shape of Earth's orbit around the Sun – in ...
