Nope. 1) The next ice age would have been about 20,000 years from now; 2) An ice age is generally good for life - consider for instance all the mammoths & other things that went extinct at the end of the last one. (Admittedly with quite a bit of help from humans; 3) 2000 years is irrelevant, since on current trends humans - and most higher life forms - will be extinct in about 500.
Oh please! 500 years? Massive nuclear war wouldn't make humans extinct. The worst ice age in history wouldn't make humans extinct. Even Stevens Hawkins said 1000 years and that was the dumbest thing he has ever said. Yeah, let's terraform some planet that is 100 times less habitable than our own because our own might be 5 degrees warmer than it is today or Terminator robots might be out hunting us.
