More 'reactive' land surfaces cooled the Earth down

In a new study, researchers show that a paradigm on a global temperature drop that started around 15 million years ago cannot be upheld. With the help of a computer model they explain the Earth's cooling with an increased 'reactivity' of the land surface that has led to a decrease in carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, reducing the Earth's natural green house effect.
