Global warming out of control, likely will lead to a ice age as a follow up. Here is the problem.. The ice caps are like a conveyor belt. They cause the circulation of cold and warm water around the earth's oceans which is what creates the ocean's currents.
That moving water around the oceans is what keeps our planet with stable temperatures that we can live in. Once the ice caps are gone, the currents will also stop. When that happens the Earth is expected to go into a ice age as the balance will be lost.
