the Earth has been going in cycles between ice age and what we have now back and forth for a long time. right now they estimate that we are in the warming mode, but soon (geologically) it should begin cooling again.
human involvement and our massive output of greenhouse gases may impair the next ice age though.

actually I'm fairly sure ice ages an cold snaps coinside with a critical point in the rise of atmospheric carbon, and we are overdue. I don't know, more than likely the fact that we are stopping the overrun of vegetive and small animal overgrowth that would probably usually have occured in our rainforests to bring back down carbon levels is the reason?
people will probably die of starvation before they need to deal with cold, the ones who survive that will likely face a mother of a winter and crazy animal system..
