I saw an article recently that predicted with the influx of fresh water from the polar ice caps the Gulf Stream would shut down and trigger another ice age in Europe.

Just build nukes and drill......

Aerial spraying of black dust particles onto ice fields or glaciers will engineer the climates.

Some so-called experts claim soot from European industry has done that to the glaciers on that continent.

To shut down the gulf stream in this target region, you would have to shut down the sun. The possibility you mention would affect the higher latitudes only, if it were ever to occur. This is similar to those who argued against the Hoover Dam because someday there may be a drought. I support Drilling and Nukes, but I also support free energy, and building a societal consensus for a progressive future.
