There will be another ice age w/i the next 1000 yrs whether we like it or not, and regardless of our use of CO2. And yes, it will be the end of civilization as we know it, assuming BHO doesn’t get there first.I can't find the thread right now, but a recent one said the next ice age is about 2500 years overdue.

But I don't think it will end civilization.. unless the stresses lead to a global thermonuclear war. Otherwise, we just all move towards the equator. Lots of folks won't make it, and lots who live there now won't either. But civilization will make it.

Between 5,000 and 6,000 years overdue.

Couple of things to think about in that regard. Agriculture began to be developed toward the end of the last ice age circa 15,000 years ago. Writing was developed between 5,000 and 6,000 years ago.
Without writing and sandwiches (the end stage product of agriculture) no one would know about this stuff.
