It gets hotter in some places, colder in others, but previously it was to a very, very, very small extent, discounting ocasional disasters affecting the climate somewhat.

So there being Global Cooling, as in the great majority of the world getting colder, enough to "ravage the fertility in the regions", in WC's words, back then, seems unbelievable.
