Scientists named the exact date of a new catastrophe on Earth

Earth on the threshold of a new ice age: sensational discovery by a Russian-Finnish scientific group

The work was published in the scientific journal Geosciences.

Scientists from the Kola Science Center of the Russian Academy of Sciences, together with colleagues from the Finnish Institute of Natural Resources, have made a disturbing discovery. Analyzing tree rings over a period of more than 7,600 years using advanced artificial intelligence technologies, researchers have concluded that our planet will experience a sharp cooling during the period 2063-2073.

According to Elena Kasatkina, a leading researcher at the KSC RAS, the upcoming cooling could cause extreme weather conditions and serious social consequences. History already knows examples of such climatic upheavals - for example, the little ice ages in 1310-1370 and 1645-1715.

Scientists believe that the causes of such changes are cyclical decreases in solar activity and major volcanic eruptions. Although this may temporarily slow down global warming, the long-term consequences for humanity could be extremely serious.

The study also confirms that the Earth's climate changes cyclically with intervals of 300-400 years.
