For me, the most telling bit was here: “And if the cooling continues, our descendants could find themselves heading for another ice age — and, ironically, desperately searching for ways to warm the planet.” Either way (warm or cold), people will adjust. Humanity has survived worse disasters in the past (the volcanic winter of 1816, for instance). Why should we spend our time worrying about something that may never happen? More to the point, why do we assume the grown adults of the future won’t be able to take care of themselves?
