Our planet’s history includes episodes of cold so extreme that glaciers reached sea level in equatorial regions.

For much of its history, our planet has been hotter – sometimes much hotter – than it is today. But our planet has also been colder. Scientists may never know which period in our planet’s 4.54-billion-year history was the absolute coldest, but research has revealed a few contenders. All of these periods have been identified as ancient ice ages.
Some of the coldest conditions struck over 2 billion years ago, after the rise of atmospheric oxygen. More deep freezes occurred between 750 and 600 million years ago. Although scientists debate exactly how extensive the ice coverage was during these times, the evidence indicates that ice reached sea level in equatorial regions.

A group devoted to land conservation in Ontario is one step closer to acquiring a huge piece of wilderness in the Willisville and Whitefish Falls area south of Espanola.
The Escarpment Biosphere Conservancy announced on Wednesday it had reached a deal for the purchase of the nearly 2,000-acre property which encompasses a portion of the Heaven’s Gate hiking trail.
Conservancy treasurer, Ted Cowan, says they submitted their proposal last Tuesday for $1.65 million and it was accepted.
