‘Real Risk of a Maunder Minimum ‘Little Ice Age’ announced the BBC this week, in reporting startling findings by Professor Mike Lockwood of Reading University. ‘Professor Lockwood believes solar activity is now falling more rapidly than at any time in the last 10,000 years [raising the risk of a new Little Ice Age]…, explained Paul Hudson, the BBC’s climate correspondent. If Earth is spared a new Little Ice Age, a severe cooling as ‘occurred in the early 1800s, which also had its fair share of cold winters and cold summers is, according to him, ‘more likely than not to happen.” via Andrew Bolt
‘Global warming hysterics at the BBC warned us in 2007 that by summer 2013, the Arctic would be ice-free. As with so many other doomsday predictions by warmists, the results turn out to be quite the opposite. The UK Daily Mail reports: A chilly Arctic summer has left 533,000 more square miles of ocean covered with ice than at the same time last year – an increase of 29 per cent.’ via American Thinker
Decreased Solar activity and increased Vulcanism = colder and longer Winters simple as that and we are seeing both.
We look to get slammed early,moist air is being pulled up from the GoM and being hit head on by Artic air coming down from the north.And it’s not even Winter yet,temps look to drop from 70-75 down to 20f this weekend.
Seattle is colder this fall than last fall – Temperature down to 26 Degrees Fahrenheit this morning – and the northern Great Plains were mugged by the Arctic last month with record breaking lows and high winds.
Gee, I can hardly wait for WINTER
Up here in the Great Northwest of snow capped mountains and vast forests of evergreen trees, I have no trouble believing we are headed for a New Ice Age – mainly because the Leftists say we are headed for AGW.
As is well known, anything the Left believes is the opposite from the truth.
We are overdue for another Ice Age. (Major one at that.) I read a report that the so-called Globull$hit Warming is the precursor for it. Trying to cool down the world will make it worse.
The best thing to do is nothing. The Earth is in no danger of being destroyed. It has survived much worse than the Human race. And doing something stupid WILL destroy the economy of the Western World while doing nothing to stop the so-called warming trend.
“…..WILL destroy the economy of the Western World….”
Do you seriously NOT believe that this was the intention all along? Take from the rich ‘white’ developed nations and pour it all into the black hole of Africa, the ME, Central America, etc, flood their countries with migrants to overload their welfare, housing and health systems, and destroy their currencies. And we can thank the unelected, faceless ‘progressive’ bureaucrats who are the ‘United’ Nations, the IMF, the World Bank and the EU.
“We cannot expect Americans to jump from capitalism to Communism, but we can assist their elected leaders in giving Americans small doses of socialism until they suddenly awake to find they have Communism.” – Nikita Khrushchev.
Create “crisis” and you gain power over the populous–(can’t tell you what ‘progressive’ RULE that is under)-and will not bother to look!

Man-made climate warming = the unbelievable broached by the unthinking.

Oh the weather outside is frightful,
But the fire is so delightful,
But as long as we’ve no place to go,
Let it snow,let it snow,let it snow!
Oh the weather outside is frightful,
But the fire is so delightful,
Especially if you use the Obamacare law for firewood. It burns hot for hours.
I doubt it would burn,nothing else about it works afterall.
It’s the only thing about that law that works.
The oldest con in the book…manufacture a crisis and cash in.
Little grey company managers do it all the time.
Enron just had the brass balls to go global with a scheme to tax fresh air. Lucky too, their timing (in the macro sense) was pitch perfect.
I had hoped reality wouldn’t make it to mainstream for a couple of years. I’d like to get a couple of hundred acres of ‘on the cheap’ land in Queensland, with exactly this scenario in mind.
*Figuring it’ll take me at least 10 years to get sorted after purchasing said red dirt
dondiego:
Do you mean to say AGW is a fraud and some people made big bucks on it
I’m shocked
SIMPLY SHOCKED 
@Darin:
Actually Obamacare DOES BURN
It burns the people who see their health insurance go up 300% per year – if they are lucky enough to get insured
….not worry….just a bunch of dead old white people will be the end result of Obamacare
Yup and all the folks who have tax returns coming and no longer have insurance will see their returns lighter to cover the fine.
Of course it will be the middle class that will take it in the neck,but that was the plan all along wasn’t it?
By the time these idiots figure out that it’s cooling not warming, we’ll have spent ourselves fighting warming. One thing won’t change though, cooling or warming or both, it’s all mans fault and some sort of tax is the only solution.
The forecast for us is days of 42ºc this coming week.
