1 short term observation of 25 years does not a good analysis make.

Pretty lame.

Thanks you for playing.

Next.

I can't help but being reminded of scientists of the past that went against popular opinion and their being soundly mocked and treated derisively (or worse) because of their discoveries. Now we have the modern equivalent of flat worlders screaming that "everyone knows the world is flat" with the type of shallow science that doesn't do anything except give excuses for poor behavior. A lot of the persecution in the past was based loosely on religious fervor. It is the same today except the modern equivalent of religion is liberalism.

But a new analysis of data on the sun's output in the last 25 years of the 20th century has firmly put the notion to rest.

So I guess the science is again "settled."

Nothing to see here, just move along.

James Hansen, a Nasa climate scientist who was once gagged by the Bush administration for speaking out on global warming...

That's a damn lie. Hansen was not "gaged" in any sense of the word. He was asked, as any other employee on the payroll in any organization is required to do when speaking for the organization, to submit his articles for review before publication. He refused to do so and should have had his ass fired on the spot.

Hansen is a publicity seaking hustler.

Just maybe there is no global warming!

“There appears to be a solar “fingerprint” that can be detected in climatic time
series in other regions of the world, with each series having a unique lag time
between the solar signal and the hydroclimatic response.
A progression of increasing lag times can be spatially linked to the ocean
conveyor belt, which may transport the solar signal over a time span of
several decades.”

Burnt by recent discoveries that global warming is caused in large part by the sun, the left scurried around frantically trying to find a scientist who would betray the ethics of his/her profession. Having found one, they rushed to plaster his statements all over their media.

The data shows that even though the sun's activity has been decreasing since 1985, global temperatures have continued to rise at an accelerating rate.

Please provide evidence that supports this nonsense. You're accepting claims from charlatans with an agenda.

From the article;

“The data shows that even though the sun’s activity has been decreasing since 1985,”

I do believe the majority of studies (scientific consenus)have shown that the Sun`s activity has been increasing. It will be intersting to see if the Apocalyptic`s latch on to this study and turn their backs on scientific consensus.
