Long before we had mountains of grain and vast lakes of wine accumulating to excess across the continent our ancestors had worked out that the best entrepreneurial way to stay ahead was through trade with as wide a market as possible.

University of St Andrews. Tuesday, 17 February 2015. The Southern CO2 that helped end the ice age. Scientists have long puzzled over the processes that caused CO 2. To rise and help end the last ice age. Leading theories have involved increased CO 2. Release from the deep ocean around Antarctica, but there has been no direct evidence to prove this happened. Our study used the geochemistry of tiny planktonic fossil shells to reconstruct the amount of CO 2. To the atmosphere, but 100 times faster, will do ...
