Your search term is 'Doggerland'.

As I recall there was a massive landslide, but depending on the timing it was the coup de grāce. Mostly it was glacial melt water. London was under kilometers of ice at one point

What was the extent of ice cover across the UK during the last ice age ...
There is no permanent ice cover in the UK today. However, 20,000 years ago, it was a very different situation when most of the UK was covered by an expanded Arctic ice sheet. The ice was three kilometres thick in places. Large bodies of ice, called glaciers flowed slowly from highlands to lowland areas. The Earth's climate warmed around ...
Yup

Storegga Slide
The three Storegga Slides are amongst the largest known submarine landslides. They occurred at the edge of Norway's continental shelf in the Norwegian Sea, approximately 6225–6170 BCE.Wikipedia

Younger Dryas
The Younger Dryas, which occurred circa 12,900 to 11,700 years BP, was a return to glacial conditions which temporarily reversed the gradual climatic warming after the Last Glacial Maximum, which lasted from circa 27,000 to 20,000 years BP.Wikipedia
6225–6170 BCE would be 8248–8193 BP.

www.ceres-science.com: New study suggests global warming could be mostly an urban problem
Quote:
A new study published in the scientific peer-reviewed journal, Climate, by 37 researchers from 18 countries suggests that current estimates of global warming are contaminated by urban warming biases.

The study also suggests that the solar activity estimates considered in the most recent reports by the UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) likely underestimated the role of the Sun in global warming since the 19th century.

...some scientists have been concerned that the current global warming estimates may have been contaminated by urban heat island effects. In their latest report, the IPCC estimated that urban warming accounted for less than 10% of global warming. However, this new study suggests that urban warming might account for up to 40% of the warming since 1850.

I see it the other way 'round. Somthing is either real or not (the Implicate Order), but which side to be on is an opinion.

Personally.... Runaway Greenhouse punctuated by a Vulcanic Winter.

Data is data. How one interprets that scarce data is influenced by a laundry list of real and imagined processes mostly internally held.

Lots of congruent self reinforcing data is harder to imagine away. Do not see that data tipping point yet.

Vulcanic winter? Interesting turn of phrase.

I was trying to pick an Otyken video for the What Are You Listening To thread, but this one fits better here.
