Why Some Scientists Say Global Warming Is Out and Global Cooling Is In
American Thinker ^ | 10/23/2018 | By Justin Haskins and H. Sterling Burnett

In a world riddled with climate-change doomsday predictions, a small but growing number of scientists are saying the highly touted climate models predicting steadily increasing global temperature due to humans’ carbon-dioxide emissions are wrong and that Earth could soon face something even more dire: global cooling.

One such climate scientist is Valentina Zharkova, an astrophysicist at Northumbria University in the United Kingdom. Zharkova and her team of researchers say that based on mathematical models of the Sun’s magnetic activity, it’s likely Earth will experience decreasing magnetic waves over a 33-year period beginning in 2021.

Zharkova is not alone. In 2017, researchers at the Physical Meteorological Observatory Davos, the Swiss Federal Institute of Aquatic Science and Technology, ETH Zurich, and the University of Bern published a model projecting a cooling period “in 50 to 100 years’ time.” Numerous other studies have made similar projections. Indeed, the website NoTricksZone lists hundreds of peer-reviewed papers that argue solar activity and solar cycles have a substantial influence on global climate change on decadal, century-long, and millennial time scales. Some of these papers even argue that solar activity is often the dominant factor driving climate change.

The researchers say reduced solar magnetic activity has previously been linked to historically cool periods in Earth’s history, such as the Maunder Minimum, a period of lower magnetic activity associated with a “mini ice age” that occurred from 1645 to 1715. During the Maunder Minimum, temperatures plummeted to such an extreme degree that Londoners held “frost fairs” on the frozen Thames River.

Writing for the New York Times, historian Geoffrey Parker notes, “The unusual cold that lasted from the 1620s until the 1690s included ice on both the Bosporus

Have I have the Ford Torino Cobra? What a nice car...I think that car could keep the ice age away...

Oops... The first Have should be Can...I was dreaming about the Torino Cobra...

Knew what you meant, yep that was a great car! 429 Cobra Jet was freaking awesome.

Mine only had a little 302 in it, still a great motor for a standard Torino!

My friend had a Torino ‘Dega and he used to race on an unopened interstate in my hometown. The Torino was quick and it was fun...I lost to him, but I had an Opel Kadet, which was an underrated car...

Interesting, thanks for that info.

I see he even has a wikipedia link - passed in 2009

Global cooling more dire than global warming? Wow, I guess we should wish for the good old days of global warming.

Wait until they start telling us about the devastation we're in for with Anthropomorphic Global Climate Sameness.

No country on this planet has survived a full blown ice age. Not one. That’s the facts.

The Maunder Minimum does not produce a full blown ice age....whatever the heck that is. The Maunder Minimum produces what is called a mini ice age.....that has extreme cold and long winters but glaciation is not as great

Since a time with severe glaciation is much longer than recorded history there is no way to know if people survived.

All countrys survived ice ages else earth would have no dry land

How is a scientist allowed to question this? I thought it was universally accepted as fact and to even question warming means you are not scientific....can n9t compute.

For which there are images - depicted by artists of the time, before cameras.

Wow. Rivers froze. That is nothing compared to what is coming. No country has ever survived a full blown ice age.

Who is claiming an imminent ice age?

What is being claimed is an imminent, like starting today, Maunder-like minimum (aka, Eddy minimum, aka ManBearPig minimum) and lasting thru the next 75-150 years.

The next ice age is probably on schedule, to hit in about 10,000 years.

Two different animals.

They are claiming a Marauder Minimum. That cannot happen now. It must be much worse, simply due to the stupid ape factor. They have been attempting to cool this planet for decades. Add that into the stupid models and you might get a snowball Earth. The human component to warming was helping, but that little bit has been far out weighed by numerous stupid ape factors even worse than the actual intended cooling projects.
