Greenland glacier advancing 7.2 miles per year!<SPAN style="mso-bidi-font-size: 9.0pt">The BBC recently ran a documentary, The Big Chill, saying that we could be on the verge of an ice age. Britain could be heading towards an Alaskan-type climate within a decade, say scientists, because the Gulf Stream is being gradually cut off.
