Talk:Next Ice Age

I would suggest rather than a large meteor smashing into the world, I would suggest that a string of largish meteors begin passing the Earth in the 1800's. Such passes could gradually pull Earth back in its orbit. This Article talks about that. Having a meteor of sufficient size to move the Earth actually strike the Earth would cause an extinction event that would kill off humanity, and probably everything above a bacterial level.

Just a suggestion, as far as plausibility goes. Louisiannan 19:49, June 11, 2010 (UTC)
