The reading and the lecture are both about The Little Ice Age which attributes to hard weather and an increase in glaciers. More specifically, in regard to the passage, the writer presents three theories about what are the reasons for this phenomenon on the earth. The lecturer disputes the claims made in the article. His position is that unfortunately these reasons are little dated and there is new information that could account for these claims.
First and foremost, the author of the reading states increase temperature before the ice age led to the melting of the glaciers, which assisted to move them to the Gulf Stream. The article mentions that these currents affected the earth's climate by decreasing the temperature. This argument is challenged by the lecturer. He claims that these currents which transferred the Gulf Stream could affect Europe and North America, but not other places. Additionally, he points out that Africa and Newzyland also were also affected by ice ages not because of this, so what is the reason for the other continents.
Secondly, the author suggests that volcanic eruptions caused unleash dust and other gases to the air which makes the sun invisible. In the article it is said that the of sun lights caused a decrease in the temperature. Again, the speaker specifically addresses this point when he states these eruptions from volcanic are not enough to cool down the climate. He goes on to say that it must be some visual effects on earth like a change in snow's color from white to gray or brown, but no reports about these occurrences had been submitted.
Finally, the author brings his argument to a close by suggesting that the decline in people'snumbers in the world assist assists with theory because this helps increase trees in forests which led to absorbing carbon dioxide and making the earth cooler. Not surprisingly, the professor takes issue with this claim by contending that this period was not long enough to cause all these changes in greenhouse gases. He notes that people quickly back to cut trees to feed their population.
