Original Note:
The Taurids are annual remnants of a comet that disrupted only 10,000 yrs ago whereas the YD began 12,800 yrs ago. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taurids While an impact is one of several hypotheses for the YD, it is not a good one. Shutdown of the thermohaline circulation in the ocean is the best accepted. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Younger_Dryas#Cause
