Here Comes The Sun
Climate change CO2 skeptics have long argued that the sun's cycles are the most potent influence on the earth's climate. More research is surely a good idea:
Kenneth Tapping, a solar researcher and project director for Canada's National Research Council, is among those looking at the sun for evidence of an increase in sunspot activity.
Solar activity fluctuates in an 11-year cycle. But so far in this cycle, the sun has been disturbingly quiet. The lack of increased activity could signal the beginning of what is known as a Maunder Minimum, an event which occurs every couple of centuries and can last as long as a century.
Could the sun give us time to solve global warming?
