New Scientific Study Proves Solar Activity Impacts Climate
Data provides evidence to back up theory previously rubbished
by warming alarmists

New scientific research has demonstrated that solar variations
have had major effects on the climate of the Earth as recently
as 2,000 years ago.
The research,
conducted by a team of scientists from the Universities of Ohio,
Minnesota, and Texas at Arlington ties a decline in solar radiation
to a drop in temperatures and diminished levels of rainfall.
The scientists calculated the data using stalagmites
that formed over thousands of years. Precise fluctuations in the
Earth's climate were recorded in the composition of the cave formations.
The new study also provides further evidence for
a 1500-year Climate cycle, the evidence for which was first discovered
in ice core data.
The Headline Experimental
Link Found Between Sun and Climate may seem
ludicrous, but the data gleaned from the new study will go some
way to countering claims that human CO2 emissions are the dominating
influence on the Earth's climate.
Global warming enthusiasts have sought
to dismiss past research linking solar activity to
changes in the climate of the planet.
In reality, warming was observed throughout
the solar system during the 1980s and 1990s, at a
time when the sun
was at its brightest. Since the end of the century
there has been a significant drop in sunspot activity.

Astronomers who count sunspots have announced
that 2008 is now the "blankest year" of the Space Age,
with 200 spotless days, the most since 1954.
"Sunspot counts are at a 50-year low,"
says solar physicist David Hathaway of the NASA Marshall Space
Flight Center. "We're experiencing a deep minimum of the
solar cycle."
Astronomers' forecasts for the rest of the year
indicate that 2008 could pass 290 spotless, the most for almost
a century.
In addition, NASA held
a media teleconference last week to discuss data
from the joint NASA and European Space Agency Ulysses mission
that reveals the sun’s solar wind is at a 50-year low. The
space agency has stressed that "the sun’s current state
could result in changing conditions in the solar system."
This lack of solar activity has coincided with evidence of a
cooling
trend across the world.
Earlier this year, China experienced its coldest
winter in 100 years while northeast
America was hit by record snow levels, Sydney experienced
its coldest
August for 60 years and Britain suffered its coldest
April in decades. African countries such as Kenya
and South
Africa have seen rare snow fall and ice storms as
temperatures have plummeted.
Rapid decrease in solar activity is an event that
has always preceded so called mini-ice age periods throughout
history, no wonder then that many scientists are predicting prolonged
global cooling.
