Thread: 30-Year Cold Spell Strikes Earth

A quote from Lucie Green, a Royal Society fellow at the Mullard space facility:

It will have a small cooling effect, but from speaking to people who do climate studies, the cooling effect is not going to be able to outweigh the global warming that we have at the moment. So yes, the Sun, when it gets dimmer it will not be providing us with as much energy, so the consequence of the Earth from that will be cooling, but then you got all these other factors playing out as well; greenhouse effect, trapping of radiation. So I don't think that the cooling of the Sun will in any way counteract the global warming we have.

absolutely. cherry picking is just bad science.

Eevo, do not attribute that quote to me. I did not say it.
I would say I would probably be right if I were to say Lucie Green knows more about the sun than anyone on this forum.

sorry, i did it like that so i dont lose it. and edited

i dunno, i did stellar evolution at uni
but yes, i have knowledge but am no expert.
having said that, even if Lucie Green knows more about the sun than anyone else in the world, that doesnt mean he knows everything. there is plenty of unknown and undiscovered knowledge out there, especially about the sun.

From reading your post, Eevo, I get the impression you didn't fully explore my post.
You seem to have missed a rather important bit of information I offered.

Eevo can you explain what you mean. I am to understand the Ecliptic is the apparent path the Sun traces against the background stars,as viewed from the Earth. I am trying to figure out what that has to do with the Earth warming up or cooling down?????
