Use an Amazon S3 lifecycle.

Can you link any docs for that? I believe a lifecycle is attached to an S3 bucket, and there's no bucket for EBS snapshots as they're tied to EC2.

IIRC you can do this by using AWS Backup. There's a setting in the... Plan? Policy? Sorry, it's been a while and there was a weird mismatch between the terraform documentation and the official Amazon documentation... anyways, there's a setting somewhere that says to move the backup to cold storage after a certain amount of time.
