And it is strange indeed that this short, stubby "article" chooses not to mention the cyanobacteria in its paragraph on the causes of the glaciation.--

The causes are interesting, but so is the other end. I've read that total glaciation could be totally catastrophic and irreversible; what produced the heat to melt the glaciers?--

I agree that the ending should be discussed in the article, provided there's any information to be had. Perhaps something could be taken from
Snowball Earth or that article could just be referred to.
In my limited and non-geologist understanding about Snowball Earth periods, volanoes would thaw out the world. Volcanic eruptions on land would melt holes in the ice, spewing CO2 and other greenhouse gasses into the atmosphere. With all the rocks covered up by glaciers, nd no plants on land, there would be nothing for the CO2 to react with. Eventually so much would accumulate in the air that the greenhouse effect would overcome the ice albedo and melt everything.

Lo normalmente, la glaciación es uno de los periodo más frios de la historia. A causa de la glaciación Huroniana era desde 2400, la primera glaciación de el mundo, y esa glaciación es la más larga qué ha pasado. A cargo de aproximadamente 300 millones de años.
Desde hace 2400 años hasta hace 2100 años.
