Sure, man made pollution is foolish if nothing else.
Yet, between wayward solar activity.
Undersea volcanic activity.
A weakened earthly magnetic field.
There's far more to the whole story.
Then there's Milo Yiannopoulos's claim on the Joe Rogan podcast that he witnessed forgery / manipulation during the earlier 'global warming' conferences.
While the info is valid one thing is the solar activity which shifts every few decades or centuries as it seems. That little Ice Age would just mean a colder climate, but you could still grow food in Sweden for example.
A real Ice Age from 18.000 years ago however is only possible via a massive magnetic shift and usually the disruption of the gulf stream. That does not happen overnight but takes centuries. Nothing we do as humans for now comes even close to make this happen - not even a nuclear WW3.
So yes- mini Ice Age is not uncommon and could happen, real Ice Age where we are covered with glaciers up until Germany and there is tundra until Italy - well that is something else altogether. Unless there are massive cataclysms and tectonic shifts with billions of dead beforehand, I don't see how this will happen within years or decades. Also - there is nothing we can do about it.
Advance in technology however is always a good idea.
