Summarize the points made in the lecture. Being sure to explain how they cast doubt on specific points made in the reading passage.
The reading and the lecture are both about different reasons that may be caused the Little Ice Age. The author of the passage believes that there are several possible reasons for this phenomena. The lecturer challenges this statement made by the author. He is of the opinion that none of these reasons have caused Ice Age.
First of all, the author suggests that before the Ice Age, the temperature of the Earth increased exceedingly. It is noted that this enhancement of the temperature has caused that glaciers melted, so these melted glaciers decreased the temperature of the oceans. This argument is challenged by the lecturer. He says that if this is the reason for the start of the Ice Age, just temperature of North America and Europe have to be enhanced. Furthermore, he argues that the temperature of the Southern hemisphere increased too.
Secondly, the writer contends that the Little Ice Age initiated since a large amount of volcanic eruption increased in that time. The article says that volcanic eruption emits dark cloud to the atmosphere which blocks sunlight. The lecturer, however, refutes this by asserting that if volcanic eruption had increased in that time, a large amount of dust produced which people would have noticed. He elaborates on this by asserting that there is no report of this phenomena.
Finally, it is stated in the article that the number of people decreased dramatically for various reasons before and during the Little Ice Age. The author establishes that forest trees started to grow more, then these trees absorbed carbon dioxide that caused that the Earth became cooler. The lecturer, on the other hand, posits that the decrease in the population of people took place in a short period of time. He puts forth the idea that forest did not have enough time to be the cause of decreasing the temperature of the world.
