Morphic resonance is a hypothesis proposed by biologist Rupert Sheldrake (b. 1942, Cambridge-trained plant physiologist) that proposes nature operates by habits, not fixed laws, and that organisms and systems are influen

E_3_06 — The 8.2 Kiloyear Event: Sudden Cooling and Neolithic Disruption

The 8.2 kiloyear event (~6200 BCE) was the most severe abrupt climate oscillation of the Holocene, triggered by a catastrophic outburst flood from glacial Lakes Agassiz and Ojibway into the North Atlantic via Hudson Bay.
