The solar cycle is entering a new Maunder Minimum and we'll see "global cooling" for the next ten to twenty years just like we did when I was a little boy in the 1970s. Remember the first Earth Day in the 1970s where the alarmists pushed "global cooling" followed by Earth Day around 1990 when the alarmists pushed "global warming" followed by "climate change" around 2010 when they couldn't decide if the earth would cool or warm?
"Climate change" grant proposals are the easiest way to siphon federal research funds to universities, allowing professors easy access to tenure based on money brought in.
The bottom line: The climate has been changing since the world began and the biggest climatic changes took place before man walked the earth.
Oh alright. (Of course there would be 10.000 things to respond, but that's another thread.) - Thanks for responding.
To call it global warming was originally the idea of a Republican pollster guy named Frank Luntz, though.
