This could get interesting; I’m still watching the arctic ice loss and we seem to have slipped into a pattern similar to that of 1910-1920; this disclosure, scandal, bump-in-the-road, etc. has probably scotched a series of doomsday releases from the advocacy press, at least.
There does seem to be a strong element of ‘suspicions confirmed’ here, though.
The "we are in a warming trend" meme is becoming less sustainable every day. If the lack of sunspots continues into January, we may find ourselves in a Dalton-type solar minimum. I'm hoping that we don't find ourselves in a Maunder-type (eg, "Little Ice Age") solar minimum, as that would be a bit too much to just prove the global-warming crowd wrong.
