What is a Grand Solar Minimum Anyway? Why wasn’t I taught about it in school? Global Cooling Facts

Grand Solar Minima occur when several solar cycles exhibit lesser than average activity for decades or centuries. Solar cycles still occur during these grand solar minimum periods but are at a lower intensity than usual. Grand Solar Minima have shown some correlation with global and regional climate changes. A list of historical Grand minima of solar activity[9] includes also Grand minima ca. 690 AD, 360 BC, 770 BC, 1390 BC, 2860 BC, 3340 BC, 3500 BC, 3630 BC, 3940 BC, 4230 BC, 4330 BC, 5260 BC, 5460 BC, 5620 BC, 5710 BC, 5990 BC, 6220 BC, 6400 BC, 7040 BC, 7310 BC, 7520 BC, 8220 BC, 9170 BC.

Casey’s theory, in particular, revolves around the belief that industrial CO2 emission is not severe enough to cause a change in earth’s climate and that climate change is entirely impacted by the sun. Dark Winter also makes note that global climate cooling would begin approximately 3–14 years past Casey’s initial discovery. According to Casey, the earth is currently going through an interglacial warm period, a rare time of reprieve from an otherwise cold earth. This period of warmth essentially serves as Casey’s explanation for the exponential growth of human civilization in the past few millennia. Moreover, Casey makes note that this period of warmth and prosperity, according to his calculation, is on the brink of ending. Casey’s theory also emphasizes the importance of sunspot patterns in determining the sun’s effect on earth’s climate. His belief is that the numerous sunspot patterns that have been observed throughout earth’s history have affected the global climate in various ways. Casey’s theory is that the sun is currently within a 206-year cycle and that a drastic cycle change is imminent. He believes this cycle change will lead to the severe cooling down of the earth. Another central point in Casey’s global cooling theory is the lack of counter strategy in regards to the advent of an ice age. Casey states that “solar hibernation“ is ultimately inevitable and that the sun will continue to cycle into its next stage regardless of the actions of the common man.

In fact, there are oodles of published technical papers based on proxy records that provide a relatively warm temperature profile for this period. This was before the Little Ice Age when it was too cold to inhabit “ “ Greenland Ice Core Data Graph Support our work on Patreon here: Support our work by purchasing some GSM gear: #pid=2&cid=2122&sid=front #pid=2&cid=2122&sid=front One Time Donations: Bitcoin: 17NV3vtcQhRnsRnjckCcYkKVEUcnirKQ62 Please Visit Our Facebook Resources: Solar Shutdown: Comet C/2017 K2 - Panstarrs: Plasma Geology: Oppenheimer Ranch Project: An experiment in high alpine sustainability.
