Still, I haven't heard many global warming worriers warn about the threat of a new ice age.

Then you aren't listening enough, I'm afraid. This is a routine concern.

Right. And the problem is not only the concerns we have but those we don't have. The unknown unknowns. The climate system is so complex that no one can predict the outcome of further warming. What we know is scary enough to be worried.
