Weaker solar activity usually means weaker solar wind. The solar wind makes it more difficult for cosmic rays to reach Earth. So a declining solar wind output means more cosmic rays enter Earth's atmosphere. According to Svensmark, cosmic rays promote cloud formation. At any rate, they have to include all ocean temps at all depths to get an accurate heat content analysis of the biosphere. Right now the global warming zealots claim the missing heat is located deep down in the depths of the ocean.

(PhysOrg.com) -- Sunspot formation is triggered by a magnetic field, which scientists say is steadily declining. They predict that by 2016 there may be no remaining sunspots, and the sun may stay spotless for several decades.
The last time the sunspots disappeared altogether was in the 17th and 18th century, and coincided with a lengthy cool period on the planet known as the Little Ice Age....and lasted 400 years.
Good luck surviving with no electricity and GE modified seeds.
