As I nominate blackaignsti as the total clueless fool of this thread. Maybe point granted, nothing on earth drives the solar agenda, but the solar agenda will totally drive the environment on earth.
As right now, the old 11 year solar sun spot cycle is ending, and what a very minimal cycle it has been. And now the new 11 cycle is beginning, and shows early potential of spawning at least a 50 year high in the frequency and severity of mass coronal ejection solar events, aka MCE or sunspots. So far we have not had a repeat of the 1859 Carrington event. that was able to totally disrupt all electronic means of communication even in the early telegraph age. But in terms of disrupting earth communications, sunspots are like guns, their effects go the way they are aimed. If they are not aimed at earth its no big problem. But the Carrington event was caused by one big MCE aimed at earth, swiftly followed by a second MCE aimed the same.
But that still misses the point, following every big solar solar cycle is a great increase in net solar output. If we think MMGW is at a crisis level now, its going to get a hell of a lot worse in the next few years. In short, blackaigst1 the fool, we are maybe going to really wish that Bush had signed the Kyota agreement. BUT ITS TOO LATE NOW.
