In this video, we report on the ‘Eemian interglacial’, which started around 130,000 years ago, lasted around 15,000 years, and was the inter-glacial. One of the periods of Neanderthal dominance was during this interglacial’ a late stage of Marine Isotope Stage 5, starting around 125,000 years ago. This sun-drenched period was the warmest and lushest experienced by Neanderthals. In fact it was the warmest planet humans have ever known. It is also during this period that anatomically modern humans moved Out of Africa and into Arabia. Indeed, Neanderthal bodies were adapted for colder conditions. Their stocky, barrel-chested build lost less heat and offered plenty of insulating muscle, and their systems were streamlined to extract calories from food and turn them into body heat. The early Homo sapiens slender physiques were better at getting rid of heat than making it. Neanderthals liked cold and dry, and Our ancestors liked warm and wet climates.

Can’t wait, hope a full documentary…
👆 – MY PRIVATE PHOTO ON THIS SITE 💑💥r🥰
earths history , vast spaces of time with glaciers everywhere interspersed with really short spaces of warmth ……..anybody still believe global warming is an issue ?
125,000 From Africa/Adamu, 331,000 the missing link appeared in 450,000/unidentified ,from South Africa to Arabia/Ancient Sumer (modern man) ,pre history Neanderthal…plus the European Denisovan migration to America and Australia ,75,000 tools found in north america 27,000 -37,000 ..then more warming a unidentified event caused a huge piece of ice to break off into the sea causing a huge tidal wave ,then all the melted water caused a great flood about 12 or 13,000 years ago wiping out the native proto humans, and native giants it was many type existing before that last great flood …except for modern man who had help from (Unidentified) modern man was then raised to the status of Civilized man thru Noah and a new Sumer 10,500 construction of the great pyramid ,everything keep falling into place ,from many different angles these event happen in cycles,se ,the same cycle took out the dinosaurs 65 million years ago & nice objective research
Europe, and much of the rest of the world, during the Eamian was likely not a forest ecosystem but a shifting mosiac of grassland, savanna, brushland and closed canopy forest driven by the megafauna of the time.
Enjoyed your short video about the Earths past changes. 💪🏻🙏🏻✨
I was hoping for a scientific and factual description of the world 130 thousand years ago as per the title, not yet another speculative lecture about global warming catastrophe. In any case, your extrapolation about ice accumulating on Antarctica leading to sea level rise doesn't even make sense.
no matter what man does, the earth has been there and done-it and worse! all we are is dust in the wind- your soul is the only thing that endures.
Global warming only reversed when a volcano put enough gas and ash into the atmosphere to reflect sunlight, we are coming out of that volcanic winter, but it is nowhere near as warm as it was before the little ice age. I am going to need to see visual evidence of sea level rise.
If the earth is warming up as they say it is, it's probably a good thing.
Great Summary! Clearly Neanderthals cooking, burping and farting caused Climate Change and their Socialist taxation and population reduction efforts successfully reduced Neanderthals population. Cheers 🍻😂
I hope no anti-warming militants can impeach our Earth to return to this state of climate beatitude. Your video is not great
Last year was measured the coldest summer in history on South pole. And the ice exent in Arctica is the highest on 11 years.
Core data taken from Cambrian deposits indicates a CO2 content on the order of 4,900ppm. We are at 370 to 410 ppm today. The Cambrian was arguably the most fecund and productive time on the planet. We should pray the earth is warming because the alternative is a global, species ending, mass extinction event.
Meters and Celsius don’t tell anybody anything.
How many times are we supposed to be submerged before it actually happens. I’ve lost track. MAN isn’t responsible for climate change and we flatter ourselves to think so, and even more so , if it were true, that man can do anything to stop it or turn it around. Ciao. I’m gonna go fart on a cow. Or a democrat.
this is pretty crap; the narration is disjointed, the video is often irrelevant to the narration, and surely that narration is computer generated.
Is it possible to tell how much the sea level will rise with one degree centigrade rise in average global temperature?
Was going to suscribe, but an tired of 'climate change' propaganda. I thought this would be a real science video, but, once again, bombarded by propaganda even from 100K years ago. Will it ever end?
Please get a human narrator. Script is good. Graphics are alright.
