As I live in Edmonton, Alberta, I believe that a mini-ice-age would be
much harder for _me_ to survive compared with global warming. Since
most of mankind is poor and lives in the tropics near the Equator, I
can't be sure about how they would fare, although they might indeed
have problems surviving of an *indirect* nature... such as _being_
that part of humanity's numbers being reduced to facilitate a
migration of the rich and well-armed part of humanity towards the
Equator.
