I'm not expert, but if you work on the 100,000 year theory, then we were due for an ice age starting around 6000 years ago, the theory is that fall's in to the time humans started farming and clearing mass amounts of land by burning it.

Which if true is good, because that's how we're all still here, but its also extremely alarming because we've take pollution to unprecedented levels in the past 100 years.
