How do you stop glacier disappearance or glacier retreat?
By initiating another glaciation. Glaciers have only been around, this ice age, for about 3 million years. Before that time there were other ice ages and warm periods between them.

The Varangian Glaciation occurred during the Neoproterozoic Era. It is significant because there are deposits found on almost every continent, and deposits are found interbedded with marine limestones. This indicates a mass glaciation which affected even low altitudes. Glaciation was caused by the distribution of the continents. All the continents were situated at low latitudes with open oceans at the poles, a configuration that has never happened since.
