#green #renewable #globalwarming #climatechange Climate change and spreading forests killed off the woolly mammoth and its big mammal cousins - not spear-wielding humans, a major new study has concluded.
The demise of the mammoth and other extinct "megafauna", such as the woolly rhino, giant deer and cave bear, is blamed on the loss of grassland across most of the northern hemisphere.
Findings of scientists from the University of Durham.are part of the most comprehensive study to date of northern hemisphere climate and vegetation during and after the height of the last Ice Age, 21,000 years ago.
The study concludes that a period of post-glacial global warming led to a massive loss of grassland over much of the Earth's surface.
As the prairies and steppes dwindled, spreading forests took their place. The changes made survival impossible for the big grazing herbivores and the predators that fed on them, it is claimed.

Post-glacial global warming was not man-made. Climate goes in cycles. There have been several periods where the average global temperature has been warmer than now.
Current global warming “science” is flawed and really is just an excuse to redistribute wealth.
