Danish solar scientist Henrik Svensmark declared in 2009 that the sun is “heading towards a grand minimum as we saw in the Little Ice Age.” Because of that “sleeping sun,” Svensmark warned, “global warming has stopped and a cooling is beginning…enjoy global warming while it lasts.” Professor Eirek Solheim of Norway has reached similar conclusions. Leading solar physicist Dr. Pal Brekke, senior advisor to the Norwegian Space Centre in Oslo, foresees possibly 50 years of global cooling due to the emerging solar cycles. Brekke has published more than 40 peer-reviewed scientific articles on the sun and solar interaction with the Earth and served as a referee for scientific journals. He was the deputy project scientist for the international Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO), a collaboration between the European Space Agency (ESA) and NASA.

Australian scientist David Archibald predicted in 2012 on the basis of solar cycle trends that global temperatures will decline by nearly 5 degrees Centigrade over the next 20 years. In April of this year, Prof. Cliff Ollier of the School of Earth & Environmental Studies at the University of Western Australia presented a paper at a climate conference in Poland projecting “serious cooling” on the basis of the same solar cycles.

Harvard’s Willie Soon has published path breaking, peer-reviewed studies regarding the sun’s impact on the Earth’s climate, which also indicate extended cooling for global temperatures. In 2012, famed hurricane forecaster Dr. William Gray, Professor Emeritus, Dept of Atmospheric Science, Colorado State University, predicted 20 years of global cooling on the basis of churning ocean temperature cycles.

These guys are pulling a massive scam. They're claiming trends from observations over a matter of years is like saying a single skipped heartbeat is a trend. It takes hundreds if not thousands of years of repeated observations of similar events to call something a trend in a system that is more-or-less steady over millions if not billions of years.

These people have no idea just how puny and insigmificant we really are.

"In 2012, famed hurricane forecaster Dr. William Gray, Professor Emeritus, Dept of Atmospheric Science, Colorado State University, predicted 20 years of global cooling on the basis of churning ocean temperature cycles."

Really? Where is it? Does anybody actuall check these people and their forecasts?
