Do you have a source on that? We have been in an ice age for roughly the past million years. Pretty sure it was warmer in almost every other era prior.

It's not solar radiation forcing that has made things relatively cooler, but it is cooler than 20M years ago. Of course, we could actually reach those temperatures again soon. https://environmental-geology-dev.pressbooks.tru.ca/chapter/changes-in-solar-output-and-in-the-earths-atmosphere/ https://environmental-geology-dev.pressbooks.tru.ca/chapter/... See fig 3.1.2. "The present rate of solar warming is about 8% every billion years. That’s 0.008% every million years or 0.0000008% every century."
