A new study by a prominent Russian astrophysicist claims the “new Little Ice Age” started at the end of 2015 due to low solar activity, kicking off decades of “deep cooling” in the latter half of the 21st Century.
“As a result, the Earth has, and will continue to have, a negative average annual energy balance and a long-term adverse thermal condition,” Dr. Habibullo Abdussamatov, who is the head of space research for the Pulkovo Observatory at the Russian Academy of Sciences, wrote in a recent study.
“The quasi-centennial epoch of the new Little Ice Age has started at the end 2015 after the maximum phase of solar cycle 24,” Abdussamatov wrote. “The start of a solar grand minimum is anticipated in solar cycle 27 in 2043 and the beginning of phase of deep cooling in the new Little Ice Age in 2060.”

Everybody breathe harder, we’re going to need as much CO2 as possible to counteract the Sun......./s
Somebody forgot to inform Mother Nature here in Middle Tennessee. It’s 85 today. Ties the warmest October 31 on record.
Bring it on, because it sure has been warm in my neck of the woods this fall.
The holocence is overdue to end.
Maybe the extra co2 bought us a 100 years or so, but eventually Milankovitch/Earth’s orbit cycles will rule the day.
Ping.
I am not sure but didn’t this news actually come out a couple of weeks ago. It seems like I have read about it before.
If it happens, the warmunists already have an explanation that blames human actions. Something to do with the ice melt screwing up the gulf stream.
Fox had a Hillary sound bite: “someone has to take the lead on reducing emissions”.
Wrong. Let the other countries take the lead.
To take the lead on this is to diminish our power, literally and figuratively.
Which is what she and her base want.
The Russians might be right. I’ve also read that last Little Ice Age never really ended, but has only been interrupted for a few decades.
Unpossible, everyone knows there’s to much CO2 in the atmosphere for that to happen.
Normally, on Earth day, I dig a hole to show her who’s boss. From now on I’m cutting down a tree and having a huge bon fire.
John Casey has been making the case for this for a couple of years now. Supposed to be noticeable this winter. The worst effect is said to be very, very wet springs and falls. Could impact crop yields. I guess we’ll see.
If it is a Sun phenomena then the rest of the solar system would also show a cooling trend.
This agency in Russia has been saying this (correctly) for the past 25 years. For them, the key to projecting weather/climate is solar activity, especially sunspots.
Of course, that has proven to be correct. Our guys are tethered to their computer models; that has become orthodoxy and academics in the field cross that theme at their peril.

Sorry for the extra posts. I guess I get impatient.
