The theory - the Milankovitch cycles - has been around for some years. it's hardly new. The suggetion of the carbon emissions putting off (not saving us from) another ice age was on a Discovery programme a few years ago. Alos in theat programme was the suggestion that when all aircraft were grounded in the wake of 9/11 the temperature in the USA rose a measurable amount due to lack of contrails.
It's an interesting exit strategy...human emissions saving the planet (oh the irony) from an ice age.
Unfortunately apart from providing the aforementioned previously 'mission impossible' exit strategy for the embarrassed faithful and conned politicians, should they choose to accept it, it has nothing to offer regarding prevention of any ice age.
There is no visible causal human signal in global climate data - in effect, no attributable human impact on global climate has been seen. How it could be asserted that we are saving the planet via tax gas, in spite of no previous sightings that we were harming it that way, is a mystery that's fathomable only to those in receipt of the mystical powers of true belief that let them see invisible things.
As a result we can safely assume that the next ice age will happen when it's going to happen.

"Ice Age" is climate, not weather.
Why were there no ice caps at all for around 200 million years?
Weather - when the weather doesn't fit the theory, it's just weatherWhy were there no ice caps at all for around 200 million years?
Climate - when the weather does fit the theory
Dear Met Office, can you tell me what the weather will be like at the end of the week, no?, I won't make any plans yet then.
