What caused the Ice Ages? For million years the earth had been a warm, humid planet, then 50 million years ago it started to cool. Ice sheets covered Europe and America to a depth of one mile. Filmed in one of the most inaccessible parts of the globe, this programme describes a radical theory relating climatic changes to the creation of the Himalayas and Tibet. Scientists trying to discover what caused the planet to cool now realise that the answer is part of a larger story linking the movement of continents to human evolution.
