The reading and the lecture are both about the little ice age, which is the period of unusual cold temperature in different parts of the world. The article of the reading provides three reasons for the causes of the little ice age. However, the lecturer cast doubts on all the points.
First of all, the reading passage points out that one of the causes was the disrupting of ocean currents in the gulf stream. The professor rebuts this point by saying the gulf stream happened in Europe and America, and the little ice age also happened in Newzelend and southern Africa. As a result, the disruption of ocean currents cannot cause the Little Ice Age.
Secondly, the writer suggests that volcanic eruption was another cause. It is mentioned that volcanoes send dark clouds of dust and these clouds consequently decrease the global temperature. The lecturer, on the other hand, posits that bb saying it is true that volcanoes sent dark dust, but it was not that strong to change the ice color. Also, he mentioned that no one reported that there was any change in ice colors or extraordinary phenomenon.
Finally, the author of the reading avers that one of the causes was the substantial decrease in the human population which contributed to the change in climate. Moreover, the forest trees caused some changing in climate. The professor refutes this idea. He contends that there was not enough time to the effect of decreasing the greenhouse effect. Also, the forest is not that big to change the climate.
All in all, the lecturer debunks all the points that the author of the reading made.
