Lost World Warning From (Under) North Sea

Anthropologist Brian Sykes says that the Rhine and Thames were once the same river.

Genetic studies done by professor Stephen Oppenheimer show that a genetic group was split by the 'opening' of the English Channel. This genetic split is still detectable on both sides of the Channel.

If the stupid idiots hadn’t heated with wood, they wouldn’t have created globull warming and they’d still be around today.

Obviously the global warming that overcame their communities was caused by their oil economy and addiction to SUVs.

Anthropologist Brian Sykes says that the Rhine and Thames were once the same river.

That is an odd conclusion, since each flows downhill.

Sigh.... If they had only used ONE square of toilet tissue per day.

Savages.

It also serves as a warning for the scale of impact that climate change can cause, says Professor Gaffney. Human communities would have lost their homelands as the rising water began to encroach upon the wide, low-lying plains.

These must be the people who invented "moving to where the water ain't."

Somehow, I think we'll find a way to rediscover their invention as we, and our children's children's children, face the eternal changes in weather.

” protected from activities such as pipe-laying and the building of wind farms.”

Protecting the sea bottom from a wind farm? First there was NIMBY, then there was BANANA (build absolutely nothing anywhere near anything). Now we just have Luddites masquerading as scientists.

That is an odd conclusion, since each flows downhill - I am pretty sure most rivers do.

"That is an odd conclusion, since each flows downhill."

North Sea subsidence would cause this. A lot of weight redistribution occurred as the glaciers melted.

North Sea ? Bush’s fault !

North Sea

A flooded portion of the northwest continental margin of Europe occupying an area of over 200,000 mi2 (500,000 km2). The North Sea has extensive marine fisheries and important offshore oil and gas reserves. In the south, its depth is less than 150 ft (50 m), but north of 58° it deepens gradually to 600 ft (200 m) at the top of the continental slope. A band of deep water down to 1200 ft (400 m) extends around the south and west coast of Norway and is known as the Norwegian Trench.

If what this bunch is putting forth is true there should be similar evidence worldwide (at least where human populations are known to have existed simultaneously) along all/most coasts - WHICH WOULD HAVE ALSO BEEN SUBJECT TO SUBMERSION if the “rising sea level” is to blame. I suspect that tectonic plate shifts/sinking is the actual truth, being passed off as “rising sea” level to further the global warming fraud.

Apparently all the survivors of this global warming scenario were able to drive themselves out of harm’s way in their Toyota Highlanders and GMC Yukons which then were presumably dissassembled and sold for scrap, since no memory of these ancient SUVs exists today.

What the h#ll kind of archaeologist describes the discovery of a "huge prehistoric 'lost country'" as "terrifying"?

Um, hello, shouldn't he be jumping for joy at such an amazing discovery?

What a [insert that word that you can't use anymore unless you want to go to rehab]!

[xJones]

You may well have a point. And one thing is for certain, the prehistoric human inhabitants couldn’t have caused the global warming claimed at that time. The ultimate truth is that the earth has a habit of abiding like it wants to and we are scum on it’s surface.

Global warming hysteria.

EXACTLY! I am certain that we will find their evil "advanced technology" soon! Wait, I need to readjust my aluminum foil shield.... Get back to you soon...

Prehistoric rivers, hills and valleys are mapped off the east coast

I really enjoy anthropology, archeology, history etc...but couldn't this statement be made for just about any area "under the sea" ?

[blam]

Here's a map of the world with the oceans water level reduced by about 320ft. Notice that England is still connected to the mainland.
