TPO-27 - Integrated Writing Task The little ice age was a period of unusually cold temperature in many parts of the world that lasted from about the year 1350 until 1900CE. There were unusually harsh winters, and glaciers grew larger in many areas. Scient

The article is talking about the reasons for the Little Ice Age, and it suggests that the disrupting of ocean currents, volcanic eruption and decreasing of human population are the main reasons; however, the professor believes that those explanations are not the real causes. The discussions are provided in following passages.

First, the cold fresh water will not effect the whole climate of the earth. While those melted glaciers sent a large amount of cold water into the Gulf Stream, the temperature drops only happened in Europe and America. It had limited disruption on the Earth’s climate and cannot explain the Little Ice Age happened in South Africa and New Zealand. The professor states that this reason is not the cause of the Little Ice Age.

Furthermore, the article states that the volcanic eruption could have caused the Little Ice Age; on the contrary, the professor mentions that the volcanic eruption would also trigger the striking visual effect, for example, brown sown and colorful sunset, but there was few record about it. Thus, the volcanic eruptions had released too little amount of dust to have the impact on the Earth’s climate.

Finally, the article comments that the decreases in human population will lower the content of carbon dioxide at the same time; in contrast, the professor suggests that the decreases in population happened just in a short period and the population recovered quickly. To be more specific, the reduction of the greenhouse gas was not so obvious that to cause the Little Ice Age. The absorption could not have such a great impact on the Earth’s climate.
