So, what makes anyone believe this attempt will be any different? Think of it, someday most of modern Britain will be ground back down under the ice.
The climate alarmists in Britain had better hope their AGW theory is right - and that nothing is done about it.
I believe it is unlikely that these major cold waves have been gradual. Just look at the map in the article. For example around 74 thousand years ago Toba volcano exploded leaving a crater 18 miles by 65 miles. Around 640,000 years ago Yellowstone exploded leaving a crater at least 30 miles in diameter. Both of these dates show a major drop in temperature. Other drops may have been caused by major bolide hits in the ocean we have not yet discovered. We have no idea why they are occurring at a little more than 100,000 year intervals. The next one could easily happen in the next few thousand years and even in our life (or death) time. When that happens, if not directly destroyed I imagine the British will migrate to Australia, India, and South America, wait a hundred thousand years and then move back. ;-(
Regarding North Sea finds, I think you could Google Dodger Banks for more information.
This is some catch-up work I wound up doing, older topics, and there were more than just one about this.
It not a suitable place for man nor beast.
