Recent research by Professor Valentina Zharkova (Northumbria University) and colleagues has shed new light on the inner workings of the Sun. If correct, this new discovery means that future solar cycles and variations in the Sun’s activity can be predicted more accurately.
The research suggests that the next three solar cycles will see solar activity reduce significantly into the middle of the century, producing conditions similar to those last seen in the 1600s – during the Maunder Minimum. This may have implications for temperatures here on Earth. Future solar cycles will serve as a test of the astrophysicists’ work, but some climate scientists have not welcomed the research and even tried to suppress the new findings.

Loooks like an “inconvenient truth” - for Al Gore.
Well, if we’re heading in THAT direction, our path is clear:
More communism
More taxes
More regulation
More punishment of the productive
It’s for the children!
[but some climate scientists have not welcomed the research and even tried to suppress the new findings.]
Of course, it threatens the meal tickets of the climate whores.
The article doesn’t mention the well documented Dalton Minimum, forty years of low sunspot count and lower global temperatures from 1790 until 1830.
These minimums are apparently a normal part of the Sun’s cycle.

Mini ice age coming
We have historical evidence of the solar cycles that produces minimums and periods of cold. The young lady has a hypothesis for how those cycles occur and a model that is prescriptive for an approaching period of cold that many of us will live to experience first hand. If she is correct, we face a coming period of famine when we can't produce sufficient food for the present population. The major Chinese dynasties have all failed coincident with such minimima.
Drive your SUV around in circles! Burn coal! Raise flatulent cows! Save the Planet!
The planet cooled and warmed several times, during the era of humans.
The humans advanced north into Europe as it warmed, and retreated south when it cooled.
It did so, without internal hydrocarbon burning engines, or hydrocarbon burning electrical generating plants.
No amount of fooling around on the edges, will stop mother nature’s physical laws.
Only a total brainwashed retard would think that we can control the climate. “Climate change” is a natural phenomenon and there isn’t a dang thing we can do about.
You're saying the Sun can effect the temperature of the Earth? Hold on now. This is crazy theoretical stuff right here.
According to Hillary's buddy Bill Ayers about 23 million should be about right.
I think the problem is, is that we’ve bought into the narrative that the Earth’s climate is perfectly balanced. When one believes that, he/she thinks that any little anomaly will tip the scale one way or another. It’d be perfectly reasonable to think that way until you factor in things like natural disasters. That’s when most common sense people realize that in reality the climate isnt some coin balanced on its side but a huge chaotic mess that nature compensates for by using things like natural disasters.
Cut off the natural gas from Texas and let the Yankees freeze in the dark!
One must always remember that "Mother Nature" is a bitch and does not suffer fools lightly.

OK!! Everybody pay attention!
Lesson for today:
1. The sun is 1,300,000 times as big as the earth.
2. The sun is a giant nuclear furnace that controls the climates of all its planets.
3. The earth is one of the sun’s planets.
4. The earth is a speck in comparison to the size of the sun.
5. Inhabitants of the earth are less than specks.

The earth is a pretty dynamic place from the top of the atmosphere to the inner core things are happening. Nothing is static, energy is being absorbed, moved, stored and exchanged in ways you can see and ways you can’t see. There are feedback mechanisms going on we only just barely know exist, understand or let alone accurately mathematically model. None if it implies “balance” we think “balance” because our observation time scale is so short.
You would think people supposedly trained in the geosciences would understand this.
Longer growing seasons allow crop varieties with about one-quarter more yield per acre. The shorter season stocks will still grow with short seasons and a lower growing degree day count.
