Essentially, you have become accustomed to hearing arguments in the news about air temperatures changing or not changing over time, calling Global Climate Change a hoax and so on.

Global air temperatures take many decades to follow the ice trend, as the ice causes the shift in the AMOC system (Atlantic meridional overturning circulation).

The Gulf Stream is an example of this. The change in density by adding cool fresh water will change the thermohaline system, it has done so in the past, and the planet froze under miles of ice.

L81112, you appear to have a very good understanding of what is going on, including the impending swing into a Glacial Period [or Ice Age]. Not many people are aware of that. But you are right about that, as far as I can tell. Not sure about how much ice there will be then, but all indications are that the earth will become frozen again, at least as bad as it was during the previous Glacial Event.

Most think we are either headed towards a warmer earth or nothing at all is going on. And in fact, we are headed towards a peak in temperature, before it starts getting cold again, but I'm sure you are aware of that also. The ice will take thousands of years to form, and there will be many migrations between now and then, as the sea levels continue to encroach until they start heading back the other way. I'm thinking the survivors of the "peak event" will be prepared to handle the sudden plunge in temperatures brought on by whatever cools us off. I think that is going to be a Supervolcano, as I posted in another reply. Before then, there will be a lot of problems related to weather and natural disasters like forest fires, and coastal inundations that we will have to be concerned about. Not to mention wars that are already going on, and those that will come as we begin to fight over remaining resources, including land that is capable of producing food.

But anyway.......back to why I am responding to this post, really.

Your understanding of what our future holds appears to be from science, as opposed to where my understanding comes from. Science supports the notion that we are headed for a peak average temperature event, followed by a plunge [to use the term loosely - it will take thousands of years to actually bottom out] into the next Ice Age. I didn't realize that until I studied the earth's past climate, during my original research into Global Warming. My understanding originally came from the Bible, when I tried to figure out where the term, "End of the World" came from. To me, that is an obvious misnomer, since there are those who survive the supposed end of the world. What I found out is that the term originates from yet another term, that appears to be either a paradox or misnomer. That term is "End of Days." If you consider that term, then you can understand why it got twisted into the "End of the World," because if days ever end, so does the world. Well, at least for those who count on another day. I'm sure the world gets to keep right on spinning regardless.

The term "End of Days" does not mean that days will end. But two thousand years ago, when the understanding of that term was locked into religious dogma, that was the only conclusion a person could make from it, when taken literally. To the Hebrews, it meant either the End of Days, or the End of Summers though, because the Hebrew word that is translated to "Day" actually means "warm part of a cycle," literally. And it was what they called both daytime and summertime, as opposed to nighttime and wintertime. That was the only two warm/cold cycles that people were aware of then, so the meaning was totally lost on them.

We know of another meaning now, which we refer to as Glacial/Interglacial Periods. So what the prophets were actually warning us about was what would happen at the end of this warm period.

Sounds to me like you basically got that figured out. Just wanted to agree.
