    That is a fair point, and I should clarify what I mean.

    There are two options of how to interpret the the doomsayer.

    1. Global ice cover, which is how I initially interpreted it as meaning, then we are truly gone.

    2. Partial Ice cover, here we can interpret “we” as the current civilization, that will be gone.

    I did not consider scenario 2 as much as I should have, but since the author didn’t specify closer, I jumped to scenario 1 and worked from there
