I agree with the premise, weather variability is due to solar activity (sunspot or no sunspots).

But, who was keeping score in 1600 to give us this data. What assumptions made it possible to speculate at sunspot activity that long ago.

There were those who watched the sun then, but it would not have been consistently been organized since then.

Help me out here. With the consensus that all climate change is because of anthropogenic global warming, why are scientists wasting their time on real research?

From Wikipedia:

“The Maunder Minimum occurred between 1645 and 1715 when very few sunspots were observed. This was not due to a lack of observations; during the 17th century, Giovanni Domenico Cassini carried out a systematic program of solar observations at the Observatoire de Paris, thanks to the astronomers Jean Picard and Philippe de La Hire. Johannes Hevelius also performed observations on his own.”

I wonder if there are any studies showing the incidence of skin cancers from a select population over 70 years?

And since we have a solar theme: this site at UCCS has a neat size comparison and an impressive moving image of solar activity. Go ogle.

Yeah, I'm totally sure, now that I see this, that the few percent that humans contribute of an atmospheric gas that is less than 0.04% of the atmosphere is the driving force of climate change.

Next on Zeros Agenda ... “The Solar Flare Tax”

Lemme see ... “Water Tax” check
“Water Regulations” check
“Water Runoff Regulations” check
“Government Water Runoff Ownership” check
“Government Water Sole Ownership” almost
“Carbon Dioxide Tax” almost
“Carbon Dioxide Regulations” check
“Air Tax” check
“EPA Air Regulations” check

Zero asks “What is left to Tax?” answer Sunlight

Freedom won’t be Taxed... just taken away

The sun seems not to be in cooperative mood again this month. It has gone blank again.

And from SWPC, the brief upticks of April were not repeated in May:

I think the solar flares are due to man-made green house gases.
