Well, every year there's a new layer of ice that is deposited on the ice caps, Antarctica, at the South Pole and Greenland and the North Pole. And when that ice forms, Danny, it captures little pockets of air.

And from that air in the ice, and it's preserved in another layer, another layer, another layer. Right now, the deepest layers of the ice cores, to the best of my knowledge, are called Vostok, V-O-S-T-O-K, and they go back over Vostok Lake, a Russian-named lake under the ice. Right. They go back about 420,000 years. Okay, so drill down, and you can see every year what was happening.

It was 420,000 years. So what does it tell you? It tells you the temperature of the Earth. It tells you how much methane was in the atmosphere, how much CO2 was in the atmosphere. It will tell you, and it'll tell you about the magnetic strength of the planet. And if you want to get into details of, I mean, the way they can do that, there are gas bubbles that are captured. There are sea life.

There are certain forms of sea life called globigerina that their shells will actually, in the sea course, the shells will grow clockwise or counterclockwise depending upon the temperature of the water. I mean, there's all kinds of stuff.

Yeah, yeah. You can tell the metals. You can tell about the magnetic strength of the earth. You can tell how strong the sun, all of those things. So the ice cores are showing us. A couple of things. First, they're showing that the temperatures rise, and I'll share with you why.

Well, this is atmospheric temperatures.
Well, this is atmospheric temperatures.
Well, this is atmospheric temperatures.
That we're talking about. And what you will find, first of all, the temperatures rise. This is called the inconvenient data because it doesn't support the narrative.
