Choices of a Lifetime
About 20.000 years later…. H32.021
Disclaimer: The story Choices of a Lifetime, is a work of fiction. Names, characters, places, and incidents are the products of the author’s imagination or are used factiously. Any resemblances to actual events, locales, or persons, alive or dead, is entire coincidental. All numbers are by rough approximation, as I have no scientific evidence at my side to make truly correct. Neither I am not able to vouch for the genuinely of the made-up environment in this world in the Holocene Period 32.000th millennium. There are no official scientific data as these time have yet to happen I can fall back on, so this is done by explorative approach and responsibility of the writer. The Julian Calendar is not used for this tale. The Pleistocene en Holocene form together the Quaternary Period. It’s for a reason why I chose H32.021 as the year to start with, after all today it’s the year of Holocene 12.021. This tale is descriptive mostly, and knows little conversation, bit like what a silent movie would be. Sorry for the disappointment there to make it more exciting.
The planet was receding from an interval period of about 10.000 years that a large part of the planet had been in the grip of a warm period. The tropical forests had covered many acres of continents, up as far the Mediterranean. And even further more north up the most northern point of Europe deciduous forests, just as it had been at the height of the last interglacial period Eemian. But that had broken and the climate was returning to a state that was more favourable in the time era H9247 (begin Roman Times) to about H17.000. After that, the interval kept on going to H27.000 roughly. From then it began to cool down in the polar regions again. Currently the movement of the earth around the sun was circular, but could become bit more elliptic with a difference of a half percent, caused by the gravitational pull of Jupiter and Saturnus. When the latter happened a long ice-age lay in waiting once a 100.000 years, otherwise the intervals were much shorter and less effective.

The second millennium of Anno Domini had been a time period of much upheaval, ever from the start in H12.000. It was an era dominated by digital technology and marked it profoundly. Climate change had always been an ongoing process, one that could neither be speeded up or stopped. Human control over the landscape had some effects on the carbon levels in the atmosphere. But that was not the main cause why in intervals of about 41.000 years there happened a full circle of a cold peak and a hot peak, and a milder periods between those two. Holocene had really just begun when human consciousness grew about climate change, and questions rose if the human was responsible? However in the mainstream of the media at the time was one setting totally forgotten. And that subject was the obliquity of the planet, that moved anno H12.000 in a full interval of 41.000 years between the 22.1° and 24.5° grades forth and back. And when it was almost at 24.5°, the mark was an ice-age and when it reached almost 22.1°, the mark was a green-age. Two grades on the axial tilt was not much, but held extreme consequences. The margins were very small, but meant much if a planet was pleasantly habitable, or much lesser. The highest point in the last ice age was about 24.2° grades, and then returned slowly over a time-span of 20.000 years towards 22.5° grades. Anno H32.000 it was becoming a moderate climate again, very much as in the digital era so long ago knew over the northern hemisphere of the planet.
Note from the writer: I made an interpretation mistake with 24.5°, it should have been warmer times, and with 22.1° colder times. Still as it is a tale of fiction and not reality, I leave the tale as it is. - Aikari
