With respect to Reply #17, I never heard the end of the Chicken-licken/Chicken Little story, but I see a "moral of the story".      

Nothing can ultimately be done to stop impending ice ages.  Particularly in our lifetime.

True perhaps but they don't just happen because they feel like it. Something causes it or prevents it and we are learning. So far the science states what the influences are and how it can be avoided. Would you stand under a bridge if someone told you that it could collapse?

It was stated elsewhere on this OU.com site:  Without both the water vapor and carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, we would all freeze---and these are in flux all the time.

Ice ages occurred regularly in the past and the moon is said to be partly responsible.  Its orbit affects the balance and rotation of the Earth, so scientists say.
But, you're right, in that regard, if that was your precise point.
