The paper introduces the dominant opinion interpreting the cooling of the global climate since the Cenozoic—the hypothesis of “the climatic change driven by tectonic lift”. The main events since the Cenozoic include: (1) cooling of the global climate;(2) decrease of concentration of the atmospheric CO2;(3) ascent of the marine 87Sr/ 86Sr, and (4) lift of a large areas driven by tectonics. The four events and the connection between them are explained reasonably by the above hypothesis. The paper also introduces the recent advances in researches on the continental weathering and the global climatic change, and the controversies about silicate or carbonate weathering, weathering and burying of organic carbon, the continental weathering and temperature, concentration of the atmospheric CO2 and temperature. For the above questions, the results in the Loess Plateau derived by the Chinese researches are introduced also.
