Their research suggests that during the ancient Ice Age, global warming was curbed through the burial of organic carbon that eventually lead to the formation of oil – including the 'hot shales' of north Africa and Arabia which constitute the world's most productive oil source rock.

An Argentine glacier continues to grow and generate icebergs the size of apartment buildings despite rising global temperatures, reported the Associated Press.
“We’re not sure why this happens,” said glacialist Andres Rivera. “But not all glaciers respond equally to climate change.”
The 3-mide-wide Perito Moreno glacier has grown large enough every few years that it can touch land across Lake Argentina, the country’s largest freshwater lake.
When this expansion occurs, the glacier acts as a natural dam, cutting the lake in half.
In turn, the damming process initiates the glacier's rise-and-fall cycle. The water on the side of the dam crashes against the glacier until large chunks of ice fall into the water.
The glacier, about 200 feet above lake level and 19 miles long, attracts a lot of fans.
“It’s like a massive building falling all of a sudden,” said Javier D’Angelo, a park ranger, who has witnessed large blocks of ice falling off of the glacier.

I dont know if global warming leads to new ice age,
the ice melt due to the change in climate temp so as i know we ar going to be Ankle deep in water
