Truth #5

There were 7 ice ages.

1. http://www.amnh.org/science/biodiversity/extinction/Intro/Iceage.html

• American Museum of Natural History
• Made up of info gained by scientists that study the history of the Earth
• Very Credible
• It says there has actually been only 6 cold cycles throughout history.
• I believe it because the History Museum should have the right answers

2. http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/ice/chill.html

• Kirk A. Maasch
• Kirk A. Maasch is a professor at the University of Maine, in the Department of Geological Sciences.
• Credible
• Says there were 12 hot/cold cycles in the history of the Earth
• I believe it because he has a masters in geological sciences.

3. http://www.geocraft.com/WVFossils/ice_ages.html

• Many scientists
• They have Ph. D's
• Credible
• Says there were 5 major ice ages and 1 minor one.
• I believe it because 5+1=6

I believe that the fact in the movie was false, beause the 3 sources I found said that there were only 6 ice ages instead of 7.
