Our Next Ice Age: Tomorrow
by John T. Cullen
Price: $0.99 USD. 11540 words. Published by Clocktower Books on March 1, 2011. Nonfiction.
There is no doubt that the Earth is warming up. The only question is: how much of it is part of nature's cycles, and how much is man-caused? But there are startling, counter-intuitive theories today, one of which suggests that global warming will actually cause a new ice age. Not only that, but an even newer hypothesis suggests the cold snap could hit very fast, once the trigger is pulled.
