In a little over a decade the world could be plunged into a 'mini ice age', scientists have warned.
Temperatures will start dropping in 2021, according to a mathematical model of the Sun's magnetic energy.
This, they say, will lead to a phenomenon known as the 'Maunder minimum' - which has previously been known as a mini ice age when it hit between 1646 and 1715, even causing London's River Thames to freeze over.
The study says that between 2020 and 2030 solar cycles will cancel each other out.
The model of the Sun's solar cycle is producing unprecedentedly accurate predictions of irregularities within the Sun's 11-year heartbeat.
It draws on dynamo effects in two layers of the Sun, one close to the surface and one deep within its convection zone.
Researchers, led by maths professor Valentina Zharkova at Northumbria University, built up on previous research that predicts magnetic waves produced by the sun.
However, she has warned her model could not be used as proof of a mini ice age - in part because of global warming.

I think that looks so crazy because her eyes are too far apart.
Wonder what she looked like at 18?

Well, since there will be no bugs and we can’t burn coal because of global warming, I guess us common folks will have to eat coal...after we dig it out by hand.
Isn’t liberal utopia a wonderful place?!

In part because of Global Warming. Somethings are so absurd they need no comment.

Quick, restart all the coal fired plants, outlaw electric vehicles and solar power, get cars to produce more CO2...

In other words, don’t you worry about the weather just send Al Gore money.
To: Oshkalaboomboom
Temperatures will start dropping in 2021How about that? Right after Trump is inaugurated for his second term. Cause and effect obviously.

I took the garbage out about 5PM. It was 5F.
It wasn't too bad.

The global warming crowd is all prepared. They can claim they were right since they changed the term to "Climate Change" just a few years ago.
It will be the same old damn solution if this happens-- turn over the levers of economic and political control to them, the "smart people" for our own good.

I read a report some years back that it will only take 100 years fo the 2 mile high Ice Cap to reform. Might be outdated info though.
