Glaciations were attributed to variations of the Earths orbit (Milankovitch cycles). But the best ever dated paleoclimatic record (from a speleothem from Devils Hole, Nevada) demonstrated that the end of the last glacial period (termination II) happened 10 000 years before the one suggested by the orbital variations, i.e. the result appeared before the reason. This fact suggests that there is something wrong in the theory. Glaciations and deglaciations drive changes of the sea level. Changes in the speed of Earths rotation during glacial- interglacial transitions produce fracturing of the Earths crust and major earthquakes along the fractures. The intensity of this process is as higher as faster is the change of the sea level and as higher is its amplitude. Much higher dimensions of this process may be caused by eruptive increasing of solar luminosity, which may be caused only by collision of large asteroids with the Sun. Such collision may cause Bible Deluge type of event.
