Yes, one of the major pieces of evidence IMHO in the climate debate is that the ice core data clearly shows CO2 levels are a lagging indicator behind temperatures. Yes, the two data points correlate, but saying CO2 levels drive temperatures is a classic post hoc ergo propter hoc fallacy.

The ice core data also support that the onset of an ice age is rapid. I'm glad I won't live to have to cope with it.

Food production will rapidly decline. Glaciers don't come as far south as Colorado (mountain glaciers excepted) but this land will be useless. Weld County, Colorado, is one of the most productive agricultural counties in America. Next ice age, it will be tundra. Great Plains agriculture will be lost. Populations will flee south and there will be great wars over the reduced livable land.

If only the warmist fantasy was true.

*Very* rapid. And nothing much to do with CO2.
