TPO-27 - Integrated Writing Task The little ice age was a period of unusually cold temperature in many parts of the world that lasted from about the year 1350 until 1900CE. There were unusually harsh winters, and glaciers grew larger in many areas. Scient

The article discusses the causes of little Ice Age cooler and provides three reasons of support. However, the professor states that unfortunately, the author’s arguments are out of date, there is new information that comes up. And he refutes each of the author’s reasons.

First, the reading posits that ocean currents disruption might be the cause of the cooling. The professor opposes this point by explaining that if this idea is true, we would see the effect of ocean current disruption only in Europe and North America. But, the cooling effect reached the southern hemisphere in area, such as New Zealand and Africa. So, if this idea can not explain how the cooling effect reached these places, It cannot explain the little Ice Age too.

Second, the article claims that the dark clouds of dust and sulfur gas resulted from volcanic eruption could have caused the little Ace Age. The professor, on the other hand, says this eruption is true, however, if the dust was so enormous, it could produce visual effects. Such as, people would notice change in the color of the sunlight. He also adds that, unlikely no person in that area had noticed any change. Therefore, this point of volcanic eruption is not strongly enough to justify the lower temperature.

Third, the reading avers that substantial decreases in human populations may have contributed indirectly to the cooling of the climate. As a result, tress became highly growing, Earth became  cooler. The professor refutes this point by saying that there was no enough time for forests to stop greenhouse effect. Because the human populations did not take so long time to get back to area, and consequently, more populations, means more trees cut down to clear roads and provide crops. The professor emphasizes that forests do not consider that the caused of little Ice Age.
