Fig. 1.

Approximate 100,000-year cycles over the past 500,000 years, with a likely impending cooling trend and the role of anthropopressure. The color highlights the phases of warmth and cold, with a reference to the current average annual temperature for Poland. The segment of the graph to the right of time 0 (the present) represents a forecast, as discussed later in the text.

Converging trends of changes in selected aspects of nature during the last c. 130,000 years, according to different authors. The graphs reflect values specific to certain areas. The lateral variability applies not only to temperature, the annual averages of which, for example, for different areas of Eurasia, vary from around +20°C in the SW to –50°C at the NE edge. CO2 and CH4 concentrations are also characterised by regional as well as seasonal variability. Changes in CO2 content in the northern and southern hemispheres, as well as during summer and winter, are temperature and humidity driven (cf. illustration in ‘Dwutlenek węgla w atmosferze Ziemi’, Wikipedia – Polish version). Annual rhythms are also marked by fluctuations in the extent of so-called ozone holes (cf. ‘Dziura ozonowa’, Wikipedia – Polish version).
