Default Sun Spots During an Ice Age?

There were very few sunspots during the last "Little Ice Age"
from about 1645 to 1715. Might we be entering another one?

That has been on my mind also. We do having a significant slowing of the
current known as the Atlantic Conveyor over the last several years. That
does not bode well for Europe/England just by itself.

I was looking forward to one more active sunspot cycle before I died (I'm a
six meter fan), but it doesn't appear that we are going to have one, if
present trends continue.

Of course, just when you think you have Mother Nature all figured out - she
comes out of left field with some new phenomenon that catches us by
surprise. For instance, the Yellowstone super caldera. If that were to
erupt, it would mean an Ice Age for sure. Or would it?
