I’m more concerned with a Real Ice Age. In the past the warm periods have lasted 11,000 - 14,000 years in between the major glaciations. (Mile thick ice over Seattle type glaciations). We are at 10,000 - 11,000 for the current warm period.

I don't know how civilization as we know it survives the next ice age. Ice covering our financial center, Manhattan. New England under the ice. Upper Midwest, under. Seattle gone. Where I am is likely tundra. The British Isles, Europe's financial center, uninhabitable. Last Ice Age Europe's population fled to Southern Spain, Southern Italy and Greece.

So the most productive farmland in the world, gone. Massive populations moving south. It's going to be nasty fighting over the land and food that's left. (Shudder)
