the Little Ice Age
The material discusses the possible causes of the Little Ice Age. While the reading looks at the topic from one perspective, the listening challenges certain points outlined in the reading passage.
First, the reading claims that the cool climate happened due to oceans' disruption. On the contrary, the lecture opposes this and says that oceans' disruption occurred only in Europe and North America; however, the temperature was cold also in other areas, such as New Zealand and South Africa. Thus, this theory could not explain the cooling climate in these areas.
Second, the author mentions that volcanic eruption caused the Little Ice Age. One the other hand, the lecturer contradicts this and states that it is right that volcanic eruption could produce enough dust that causes cool climate, but it should produce also striking visual effects and change snow color to gray or brown. However, there is no report that these conditions happened during the same period, so volcanic eruption was not strong enough to lower global temperature.
Third, the reading posits that cool-climate happened due to a decline in human populations. In contrast, the professor challenges this and says that there was not enough time to cause cold temperature because human populations grew back quickly and cut down trees to cultivate more crops to feed more populations. Hence, none of these theories lasted a long time to cause a cooling climate.
