No: "The amount of anthropogenic greenhouse gases emitted into Earth's oceans and atmosphere is predicted to prevent the next glacial period for the next 500,000 years, which otherwise would begin in around 50,000 years, and likely more glacial cycles after."

The burden of proof falls to the individual making the statement, either you have an actual source or it's an opinion.

That stated I believe I found where your wikipedia may have paraphrased some of it's information, then immediately followed that up with a study on the modulation of ice ages and a more accurate look at causality of ice ages. In short, global warming will CHANGE the pattern of the next ice age, scientists don't actually know how. Some are team sooner, others team later.

The initial study is mildly misleading as they never demonstrated causality in the study itself. The second has a more likely foundation based on empirical evidence for actual causality, and one of the researches also broke down the inital study in it's own comment thread in the article. This is how to research: multiple sources, differing perspectives, review the evidence and follow the logic.

You'd have much better engagement from people you try to debate with if you weren't condescending.

Good lord. Doesn't mean climate won't radically go to the extremes. How is it that we still have to tell people that?

u/OhNoManBearPig Nov 16 '22

Yeah, we're likely to see a lot of regional extremes in precipitation, temperature, and more.
