EXCERPTS: A new theory relating the sun’s changing activity levels to climate undercuts global warming alarmism and the Biden green programs. The theory’s prediction of colder winters over the next three decades takes on especial importance given the mid-February near-collapse of the Texan and German energy grids. When faced with an unexpectedly severe cold spell, they lacked the surge-demand reliability that an adequate reserve of coal and nuclear power plants affords.
[...] Will the next few solar cycles bring on the very cold winters of the 1645-1710 Maunder minimum? ... The anticipated cold spell could prove embarrassing to the flacks in the major media and Democratic Party talking up the inevitability of a global-warming climate catastrophe if fossil fuel production and consumption aren’t halted, whatever the costs to the economy and standards of living.
Astonishing as it may seem, the physics of two primary determinants of earth’s climate — sun and clouds — is poorly incorporated into the climate models upon which the Biden administration’s trillion-dollar green-energy spending blowout is based. This is the greatest scandal in the history of science — an even greater scandal than Stalin’s promotion of the false genetic theories of Trofim Lysenko, which devastated agriculture and the study of biology in the USSR.
The green program of the Biden administration is based on a misguided attempt to explain the modest natural warming of the earth since the second half of the 19th century as being driven by anthropogenic CO2 emissions from combustion of fossil fuels. It is furthermore claimed, especially by Democratic politicians and their media supporters (as opposed to most climate scientists), that unless fossil fuel use is reduced to zero within a few decades, runaway warming will destroy the planet and its species.
Like Lysenkoism, this is a false, politically-driven theory that is easily debunked, so easily in fact that its journalistic proponents must endlessly tell their gullible listeners that “the science is settled.” But to even utter that phrase is to identify oneself as an enemy of science, for the flourishing of the sciences have always depended upon evidence-based skepticism.
Far from the science being settled, a surprising number of scientific papers – over 400 in 2020 by one count – “support a skeptical position on climate alarm.”
[...] If Professor Zharkova and colleagues prove correct, this could be an important breakthrough for the so-called climate skeptics — the scientists and others who believe there is no scientific justification for alarmism over CO2 levels now and for the coming decades. This is because Zharkova’s theory of the physics and timing of solar cycles integrates well with the cosmic ray / solar activity / cloud formation theory of Professor Henrik Svensen and his collaborators...
