Chicken Little Science in UK

Independent:

"Global warming will plunge Britain into new ice age 'within decades'" says the headline.

"Britain is likely to be plunged into an ice age within our lifetime by global warming, new research suggests.

"A study, which is being taken seriously by top government scientists, has uncovered a change 'of remarkable amplitude' in the circulation of the waters of the North Atlantic.

"Similar events in pre-history are known to have caused sudden 'flips' of the climate, bringing ice ages to northern Europe within a few decades. The development - described as 'the largest and most dramatic oceanic change ever measured in the era of modern instruments,' by the US Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute, which led the research - threatens to turn off the Gulf Stream, which keeps Europe's weather mild."

The logic of this analysis in convuluted enough for Al Gore. Perhaps, they should work on making the globe warmer. They may need it.
