“The sun defines the climate, not carbon dioxide,” so says eminent Russian space scientist, Habibullo Abdussamatov (Dr. Sc. – Head of Space research laboratory of the Pulkovo Observatory).
Observations of the Sun show that carbon dioxide is “not guilty” for the steady increase in temperature observed over the past few decades, and that what lies ahead in the coming years is not catastrophic warming but a global and very prolonged temperature drop.
The slight warming we just experienced had a natural origin, the contribution of CO2 was insignificant — carbon dioxide does not serve as an explanation, the sun does.
The so-called ‘greenhouse effect’ will not avert the onset of the next deep temperature drop, the 19th in the last 7500 years, which without fail follows after natural warming.
“We should fear a deep temperature drop — not catastrophic global warming,” warns Abdussamatov, who was one of the researchers featured in the 2009 U.S. Senate Report of More Than 700 Dissenting Scientists Over Man-Made Global Warming.
“Humanity must survive the serious economic, social, demographic and political consequences of a global temperature drop, which will directly affect the national interests of almost all countries and more than 80% of the population of the Earth.”
The global average temperature has already dropped 0.5C since the start of 2016 (UAH V6.0). A further 1.5C or-so drop will see us down to Maunder Minimum levels (a.k.a. the Little Ice Age), and we know how well that went for humanity…
Desperate scenes — the Maunder Minimum (1645-1715)
Earth’s climate is cyclic, never linear; driven mainly by the sun.
And the sun is once again shutting down (relatively). According to NASA, this next solar cycle (25) “will be the weakest of the past 200 years” (for more, see the “NASA Predicts…” article at the bottom of the page).
Don’t fall for cherry-picked, UHI-ignoring global thermometer datasets — our future is one of ever-descending cold which in the past has led to crop failure, unrest, famine, and war.
