What Causes an Ice Age?

Summary Earth has experienced five major ice ages each due to a different combination of circumstances. The current ice age resulted from the sequestration of water at the south pole due to restricted water circulation at the poles caused by the placement of the continents and the growth of the Himalayas. During ice ages, the non-uniformity of the Earth's orbit causes periods of moderate warming and cooling.
