Why did the Ice Ages for the last several millions of years happen if there weren't people and their activities (or at least many) to blame it on....??? We'll probably be waiting another few 1000 years, until the scientists start to agree about even the question. Let alone the answer. Posted this link in October 2005 on the Timeline for Ice Ages History.... ngdc.noaa.gov Summary of 1000 Years In the past 1000 revolutions around the sun, the Earth has experienced a wide variety of human activity against a background of climate change and variability. In Climate History the focus is on how drought-- some lasting several decades-- impacted cultures such as the Ancient Pueblo peoples who inhabited parts of the American Southwest a millennium ago. In Climate Science, we look into how paleoclimatologists are using clues from proxy records such as tree rings and layers of sediment and ice to piece together past climate patterns and events over the course of a millennium, far beyond the limited records from modern instruments such as rain gauges and thermometers. And Resources offers numerous links to paleoclimate resources relating to the past millennium and millennial scale climate variability.
