[Mike Fieschko]

I read a science-fiction novel some years ago in which the Earth had plunged into an ice age, because the sun's 'output' had gone down. Turned out that it had been going down for quite some time, but only industrial 'greenhouse gases' kept our temperature normal.

So, when the enviro-wackos got into power and reduced 'greenhous gas' emissions, we got an ice age.

I wish I could remember the title and author(s).
