Where are we now and where are we headed?
The last interglacial (the Eemian [1]) lasted 15k years and was warmer than what we experience today; sea level at peak was probably 6 to 9 m (20 to 30 feet) higher than today; Scandinavia was an island. Then the glaciation returned for 100k years with mile-thick ice sheets covering huge parts of Europe and North America, until the current interglacial got going almost 12,000 years ago. [2]
"The axial tilt varies between 22.1° and 24.5°, over a cycle of about 41,000 years. The current tilt is 23.44°, roughly halfway between its extreme values. The tilt last reached its maximum in 8,700 BCE. It is now in the decreasing phase of its cycle, and will reach its minimum around the year 11,800 CE. ... decreasing tilt may encourage the onset of an ice age ..." [3]

How do you determine the exact position in a cycle of 400000 years?
