SE era's volcanoes + Lizard climate adaptation + Can we suppress the next ice age? - C C - Jan 18, 2016
Claim: Explosive underwater volcanoes were a major feature of ‘Snowball Earth’
http://wattsupwiththat.com/2016/01/18/claim-explosive-underwater-volcanoes-were-a-major-feature-of-snowball-earth/
EXCERPT: From the UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHAMPTON, the “splode” department, comes this interesting claim that tries to make CO2 the driver rather than volcanoes themselves. It looks like a big leap of speculation to me....
Weather-worn lizards might adapt to new climates

EXCERPT: Lizards exposed to rain, hail and shine may cope better with extreme weather events predicted as a result of climate change than their fair-weather cousins, suggests new research....
Human-made climate change suppresses the next ice age
http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2016/01/160113160709.htm
EXCERPT: Humanity has become a geological force that is able to suppress the beginning of the next ice age, a study shows. Cracking the code of glacial inception, scientists have found the relation of insolation and carbon dioxide concentration in the atmosphere to be the key criterion to explain the last eight glacial cycles in Earth history....
