Civilization and Ice Ages

This quote is from:

On this time-space trip we found new anomalies in the new timeline you and I are presently on. We are not sure what they mean just yet. It is possible that there are off planetary elements that are not pleased that the Galaxy has granted earth 2 time lines that simultaneously prosper together. This is a very rare occurrence for any planet to be granted 2 basic time lines and other planetary systems may be jealous. However, they must realize that life on a galactic rim planet is very chancy at best. This is because of the ice ages that come at least once every 25,000 years or so. This usually causes a massive die-off of at least all the flora and fauna of the planet including humans of 90% or more. This is one of the reasons we don't have good present day records of civilizations back more than 10,000 to 15,000 years. When civilization is forced back to the stone age by massive die-offs of human population technology usually dies also within a few generations and group memories become legends like the ones we have of Atlantis, Lemuria, and Mu.
In order to maintain a high tech culture on this planet Earth in either timeline at least 10,000 humans localized in one culture are required to maintain both the gene pool and the technical and spiritual base of knowledge. This might also be true on many other planets especially ones on the rim like earth if they too have ice ages. end quote from above site. The above quote was written likely in Lake Tahoe on a skiing trip there in February 2002 by me.

I wanted to say a little more today about the problems of ice ages and human civilization. Though there are cycles where humans can build up civilizations there are also cycles where ice ages quickly end civilizations just like in the movie "The Day After Tomorrow". One way for civilizations to defend against this kind of thing is to build underground living and storage areas because once you get almost anywhere under about 2 to 10 feet in depth almost anywhere on earth the temperatures tend to stay a constant approximately 60 degrees Fahrenheit plus or minus. This temperature is a livable temperature year around. So even if the temperature goes 150 plus Fahrenheit or 150 minus Fahrenheit above ground it would be livable in such an environment underground where the underground temperature stays 60 degrees Fahrenheit all year long. As long as there is enough air to breathe and food and water to eat and drink many many people and their civilization could survive ongoing as long as they found a way to grow enough food    above ground during some parts of the year or they had grow lights underground to continue to grow their food. No matter the surface air temperature the sunlight could theoretically be converted to electricity with solar panels for grow lights for growing food underground where there would be no 100 mile per hour winds, no freezing temperatures, no flooding rains or droughts. The problems underground are much different than at the surface. Underground problems would be mold, clean air, changing underground streams during different times of the year and the like. However, all problems due to temperature would not be a problem at all because the temperature below 10 feet underground anywhere except next to lava or a volcano or hot springs would remain constant.

When you hear of Mastodons (ancient hairy elephants) with tropical flowers in their mouths being instantly frozen to death during polar shifts in Alaska like we may be on the verge of with magnetic north now moving 40 miles a year towards Siberia this might be something to think about and to consider for all of us who now live here on earth who don't want our civilization one day to be like that frozen mastodon with tropical flowers in its mouth.
