I agree with Kunarian. the only difference: our current global society is much more fragile because we need every inch of land intensively. if we only get a few degrees plus, whole harvests will fail - year after year - and with a few billion people that means certain starvation of thousands to millions. in the ancient times it was just one or two civilizations that went down because of climate change; we're all depended on each other now.
