Once the
ice reaches the equator, the equilibrium climate is significantly colder than what would initiate
melting at the equator, but if CO2 from geologic emissions build up (they would, but very slowly — geochemical processes provide a negative feedback by changing atmospheric CO2 in response to climate changes, but this is generally very slow, and thus can not prevent faster changes from faster external forcings) enough, it can initiate
melting — what happens then is a runaway in the opposite direction (until the
ice is completely gone — the extreme warmth and CO2 amount at that point, combined with left - over glacial debris available for
chemical weathering, will draw CO2 out of the atmosphere, possibly allowing some
ice to return).
Climate Alchemy and probably most scientists not taught
chemical thermodynamics don't realise that the main heat transfer term in the oceans is the partial molar enthalpy transferred when the fresh, cold water sinking from
