At least five major ice ages have occurred throughout Earth’s history: the earliest was over 2 billion years ago, and the most recent one began approximately 3 million years ago and continues today (yes, we live in an ice age!). Currently, we are in a warm interglacial that began about 11,000 years ago. T

you leftist commies suck. the earth has always had earthquakes, the earth just had a major earthquake, 10, 20, 50, 100, 1000 years from now the earth will continue to have earthquakes.

the man made climate hoax you support so much does nothing but empower large global corporations. you're disgusting. The posters on the OT like you even less than the posters on PT. Democrat Underground is the site you seek.

Amazing that no one has the discipline to ignore your obvious troll. Good work.

He means that heat creates pressure, causing tectonic movement in response to try to relieve it. Don't construe this as me believing in the global warming hoax. I think he's correct, but it originates in the core, not on the surface. Continents have been moving for millions of years.
