Richard Harrison of the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory in Oxfordshire, UK You remember the UK, the place were Global Warming is celebrated like the Earth is a giant Stonehenge and all the Brits are druids all over again.
Dick and Rutherford say the Sun is at a 100 year low. The two even refer to the Maunder Minimum, a time in 1645 when a mini ice age hit, freezing the river Thames.
Mike Lockwood at the University of Reading concurs noting that the lower temperatures could affect the global jet-stream, causing weather systems to collapse. 'We estimate within 40 years there a 10-20% probability we will be back in Maunder Minimum territory,' Mike said.
NASA notes 2013 year was supposed to be the year of 'solar maximum,' the peak of the 11-year sunspot cycle. It didn't happen. 'Sunspot numbers are well below their values from 2011, and strong solar flares have been infrequent,' NASA observed.
So what? Well, remember Obama is busy unleashing his junkyard dog EPA on the energy industry under the mistaken and even malicious notion that the globe is still warming. But schizo Europe appears to be reversing their idiotic green agenda with a fracking frenzy now.
