Global Cooling:
Decline in Solar Activity Could Chill Earth
Solar activity may decline in the next few years according to recent research.
This may lead to a drop in temperatures here on Earth.
From Network World:
"This is highly unusual and unexpected," stated Dr. Frank Hill, associate director of the NSO's Solar Synoptic Network, in a statement. "But the fact that three completely different views of the Sun point in the same direction is a powerful indicator that the sunspot cycle may be going into hibernation. We expected to see the start of the zonal flow for Cycle 25 by now, but we see no sign of it. This indicates that the start of Cycle 25 may be delayed to 2021 or 2022, or may not happen at all."
