What's going on with the Sun?
http://physicsworld.com/cws/article/news/46387 "Earlier this month a lot of column inches were devoted to the news that the Sun continues to behave in a peculiar manner – and that solar activity could be about to enter a period of extended calm. The story emerged after three groups of researchers presented independent studies at the annual meeting of the Solar Physics Division of the American Astronomical Society, which appear to support this theory. But are the new findings really that clear-cut and what implications do they have for the climate here on Earth? "Finally, even if the Sun were to head into a quiet period, others argue that the reduction in solar irradiance on Earth would still be small compared with the heating caused by man-made global warming. Mike Lockwood, a researcher at the University of Reading, estimates that the change in climate radiative forcing since the Maunder minimum is about one tenth of the change caused by man-made trace greenhouse gases".

See: http://physicsworld.com/cws/article/news/46387 And no mention that recent research indicates there is more going on with the Sun's influence on the Earth's climate than just "radiative forcing". See: http://physicsworld.com/cws/article/news/45982 "According to Svensmark, cosmic rays seed low-lying clouds that reflect some of the Sun's radiation back into space, and the number of cosmic rays reaching the Earth is dependent on the strength of the solar magnetic field." "he latest experiment provides evidence for a major component of this theory - how ionization enhances cloud formation." One sentence in the first article Sam should read over and over until it sinks into his aging, change terrified brain: "Also, the Earth's climate is evidently a highly complicated system, involving interconnected feedback systems, so it is difficult to disentangle causes and effects." -- Jim Pennino Remove .spam.sux to reply. |

Then, the usual suspects from the AGW crowd will offer their support, claiming that the "majority of climatologists" support it. |

It's all part of the big conspiracy to befuddle those of us who see science that tells us things we don't want to hear as part of the plot to confuse us. |

You mean "Among the FOX 'News' obeying public." -- Science can best be thought of as the endeavor by which humanity works to move the answer "I don't know" back one "Why?" at a time. If you aren't at least three deviations from the norm, you're just part of the crowd. |
