The Times: New Ice Age is On The Way
Posted by Paul, at 05:23 AM
'Climate: New ice age is on the way.' That was a headline from The Times newspaper on 21st October 1972.
On 23rd March 1970 the headline read: 'Antarctic may be key to ice ages.' According to Dr A T Wilson of Wellington University, New Zealand, the Antarctic may once again be approaching the point of instability at which an ice age is triggered off.

Gosh - and they were right. I've a big glacial moraine problem here I'm trying to deal with and if any more penguins come walking down Hay steet I swear I'm going to move North.
