There have been many ice ages, large cycles of 150 million years interspersed with retreats and reglaciations. According to the URL below, there have been 20 glaciation, retreat and reglaciations in the last 1.6 million years.

A little known fact is that a band of radical neolithic evironmentalists were running around even then sounding the alarm that human caused global warming was threatening the survival of all other species by the unconscionable misuse of energy in the form of fire. Fire was being selfishly used to extremes for ridiculous things like cooking food and keeping warm and creating art with charcoal on cave walls. Why oh why didn't our selfish ancestors listen?

<<I have often wondered how fish got into the 100's of thousands of lakes up north which appeared in the wake of the retreating glaciers about 2 seconds ago (geologic time).>>

Birds. Fish eggs will stick to duck's feathers and be transported from lake to lake. My neighbor put in a water garden and had a pair of mallards sit on it. She put in 5 goldfish but she has 5 goldfish and 3 bass.

What amazed me was we built a bog garden and 3 days later it had water striders and little water beatles.
