An Indefinite Period
[Intro]
How long?
Sighin’: a long, long, long, time
(To fix what’s wrong)
An indefinite period
(Period)
[Verse 1]
The next ice age?
(No!) No time soon
If we make that stage
And, live to play the tune
[Bridge]
How long?
Sighin’: a long, long, long, time
(To fix what’s wrong)
An indefinite period
(Period)
[Chorus]
Thousands (if not millions, of years)
Delaying (or preventing altogether)
Crying (millions of tears)
Denying (human’s changed the weather)
[Verse 2]
Too much carbon dioxide
Due to selfish pride
Greenhouse gasses passes
A sustainable ride
[Bridge]
How long?

A SCIENCE NOTE
Given the current trajectory of human-induced climate change, it is unlikely that the Earth will enter the next natural ice age anytime soon. In fact, the acceleration of global warming is expected to delay or even prevent the onset of an ice age for thousands, if not millions, of years.
Ice ages are part of natural climate cycles, which are influenced by factors such as Earth’s orbit, axial tilt, and long-term shifts in greenhouse gas concentrations. However, the levels of carbon dioxide (CO2) and other greenhouse gases in the atmosphere have dramatically increased due to human activities, such as burning fossil fuels and deforestation. This increase in greenhouse gases is trapping heat in the atmosphere, leading to global warming, which counteracts the cooling needed for the onset of an ice age.
Research suggests that the next ice age could have begun around 50,000 years from now, based on Earth’s natural climate patterns. However, human influence on the climate could significantly alter these natural cycles, delaying the cooling process or preventing it altogether for an extended period of time. In essence, the current human-driven climate crisis is creating a new climate era, one that could push back the timing of the next ice age for an indefinite period.
