Global cooling is a process created when greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide, iron oxide, and other chemicals are trapped in the atmosphere (Aisch, 2018). Some of the chemicals that help produce global cooling are associated with global warming. Two and a half million years ago an ice age developed across the world. This was due to what some scientists deemed as an asteroid crashing into the earth. The asteroid theory is what was believed to have set off a major cooling event called global cooling or the ice age. Global cooling is also associated with high levels of iron oxide in the dust across the world which helps cool the earth. New evidence brought forth by NASA of rust on the moon associated with solar winds, carrying oxygen to the moon over billions of years, brought a hypothesis to mind. Maybe, the rust was not associated with the deployment of oxygen but an enhancement of iron oxide, associated with climate change, brought on by global warming as a chain reaction and escaping through solar winds to the moon through the ozone layer. Volcanoes have an enhanced iron ore development near the core. This would then lean toward a new hypothesis of how global cooling develops and is the first sign of the ice age on earth. In order to stop global cooling, one must reduce parts per million particles in the atmosphere. This can be done by reducing car emissions, smokestack factory emissions, and other pollution-based gases (Amos, 2017) (Cassella, 2020) (Etheridge, 2010) (Damon P., Kunen S.,1976).
Parts per million in the atmosphere are how scientists gauge the number of particles of carbon dioxide and other aerosol chemicals that are related to greenhouse gases. These particles' carbon dioxide especially with the current parts per million at 413 shows an enhanced ppm rate. In the year 2000, the parts per million were over 368.1. Scientists believe parts per million were well over 400 in the Miocene Epoch of 10 to 15 million years ago. If this is true, then how did they lower to what we had in 2000 at 368.1 parts per million? The ice age is a natural way to lower parts per million in the atmosphere. This is how the earth replenishes itself. If this was not true, then parts per million found in ice droplets from the last ice age through glacier research would not have recorded them at 180. The theory of an asteroid impacting earth leads to a quick freeze in hours as the sunlight is blocked out by such a large impact of dust thrown into the atmosphere. This is similar to the downward motion hypothesis of a strong centralized current of air rapidly plunging upon earth to create an impact crater producing a cryogenic freeze (Etheridge, 2010).
My hypothesis is that the lower latitudes and higher latitudes have a balance in cool and warm air distribution. If this balance is overcome by warm air through carbon dioxide and other particles per parts per million then an implosion event occurs. Such a quick change develops a downward motion capable of an impact similar to the theorized asteroid ideology. The warm air in the southern hemisphere becomes unbalanced from the cooler temperatures in the northern hemisphere. Then comes the rapid onset of colder and in some cases cryogenic freezing air.
