More likely to be his missing spine, but no. Although given that he is a climate denier you're probably not too wide of the mark.
Studying an ice core was the method used by scientists to determine the beginning/end of something, but a group of them has now agreed to use a different method - one involving a lake in Canada.
The scientists involved are geologists - they'll be studying the silt in Crawford Lake near Toronto, hoping to confirm/mark the end of one thing and the beginning of another.
The end of the world and the beginning of a new one The end of a certain ice age ? You can probably tell that I've got nee idea
The end of a certain age - not necessarily an ice one. I'm sure you'd get an idea if you googled Crawford Lake.
"The sediments found at the bottom of Crawford Lake provide an exquisite record of recent environmental change over the last millennia," says AGW secretary Simon Turner, a geoscientist at University College London." Indicates when humans started to chnage our planet
Almost there - what ends and what begins? Or, to be more precise, what will it confirm that scientists believe happened around 1950?
The Anthropocene — and derived from the Greek terms for "human" and "new" — followed the Holocene Epoch, which started about 11,700 years ago at the end of an ice age.
That's Ken and Barbie. I'll just have to watch it to see if it's as god awful as I suspect it is!! (in a parallel universe I am Barry Norman and Mark Kemode rolled into one)
