Welcome to Solar Minimum

Unfortunately for Democrats, global warming is much more complicated science than what their theories predict. The greatest contributing factor to global temperatures isn’t atmospheric carbon dioxide, it’s the sun. The sun’s release of energy has natural variations and it is currently in a state known as solar minimum; the lowest energy output by the sun as it oscillates through an approximate 11 year cycle of activity, also known as the Schwabe cycle.

This is the primary reason for the colder than normal temperatures recorded across the country this summer.

If the globull warming crowd can ignore the solar minimum, just wait until we hit the solar maximum!

So true. I shudder to think of the outcries about man-made global warming if we were in a solar maximum. Being in a solar minimum buys us a bit of time to not only update the science but use it to try to convince real-world scientists of the actual climate cycle.

On the other hand I remember one global-warming activist saying the opposite. Since we are in a solar minimum, we have a little more time to enact laws, rules and regulations to get ready for the solar maximum.
