YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

The glaciers didn’t melt in a straight line. Warming surged, then suddenly shut off.

The Younger Dryas slammed the planet back into deep cold, even regrowing ice in some regions. When it ended, temperatures rebounded fast into the Holocene climatic optimum...when Earth was likely warmer than today.

This wasn’t gradual. It was abrupt, pulsed, and driven by forces we still don’t fully understand.
