The dramatic draw-down of carbon dioxide cooled the atmosphere, the new study suggests, and set the planet up for two ice ages, 80 million and 50 million years ago.

I swear the stupidity in science today is astounding !

CO2 went down because of the ice age ! the plants which consume CO2 DIED because of the ice age and thus CO2 went UP. CO2 didn't CAUSE the iceage! it was a result OF the ice age.

I swear! I kindergartner could figure this out!

And don’t forget that cold water holds more CO2 than warm water. Cold oceans during ice ages hold tremendous amounts of CO2. when the ice age ends, the CO2 is released.

And more than likely, volcanic activity coincided or caused the global cooling. But hey, that is the logical scientific conclusion, not the corrupted science needs more money solution.
