Sea level on Earth has been rising and falling ever since there was water on the planet. Scientists were already able to use sediments and fossils to roughly reconstruct how sea levels changed over time steps of a million years or more. | |||

Earth formed about 4.6 billion years ago, during the geological eon known as the Hadean. The name “Hadean” comes from the Greek god of the underworld, reflecting the extreme heat that likely characterized the planet at the time. | |||

Climate scientists in the United States are to be cut off from satellite data measuring the amount of sea ice — a sensitive barometer of climate change — as the U.S. Department of Defense announces plans to cancel processing of the data for scientific research. | |||

===== The ‘Great Dying’ wiped out 90% of life, then came 5 million years of lethal heat. New fossils explain why ===== | |||
[https://edition.cnn.com/2025/07/02/climate/great-dying-extinction-tipping-point-tropical-forests by Laura Paddlson 2/7/25 CNN] | |||
A team of international researchers say they have now figured out why using a vast trove of fossils — and it all revolves around tropical forests. | |||
===== Ancient wooden tools show human ancestors ate their veggies ===== | |||
[https://www.science.org/content/article/ancient-wooden-tools-show-human-ancestors-ate-their-veggies by Andrew Curry 3/7/25 Science] | |||
Proponents of the “paleo diet” like to imagine the deep past as an all-meat barbecue buffet. And thus far, the kinds of tools dating to the dawn of humanity—countless stone blades and choppers, along with a few wooden spears and throwing sticks—seemed to support the idea of a pre-historic diet heavy on mammoth steaks. | |||
