Climate change has been a perplexing problem for years. In Cold Sun, author John L. Casey, a former White House national space policy advisor, NASA headquarters consultant, and space shuttle engineer tells the truth about ominous changes taking place in the climate and the Sun.
Casey’s research into the Sun’s activity, which began four years ago, resulted in discovery of a solar cycle that is now reversing from its global warming phase to that of dangerous global cooling for the next thirty years or more. This new cold climate will dramatically impact the world’s citizens. In Cold Sun, he provides evidence of the
• The end of global warming • The beginning of a “solar hibernation,” a historic reduction in the energy output of the Sun • A long-term drop in the Earth’s temperatures • The start of the next climate change to decades of dangerously cold weather • The high probability of record earthquakes and volcanic eruptions
A sobering look at the Earth’s future, Cold Sun predicts worldwide, crop-destroying cold; food shortages and riots in the United States and abroad; signifi cant global loss of life; and social, political, and economic upheaval.
Actually, this book (published May 31, 2011) is not the book that I read. The book that I read is called "Dark Winter" (published Aug 19, 2014) but, while listed on Amazon, it is not listed on on goodreads for reasons unknown. I think "Dark Winter" is an updated version of "Cold Sun" and so both books deal with the phenomenon of the Grand Solar Minimum in which sunspot activity decreases considerably for a decade or more. This has the effect of driving down temperatures here on Earth and the book's claim is that such a decrease in solar activity is already upon us. The author warns that the planet needs to prepare for a period of sustained cold in which crop failures may lead to global food shortages. But what about anthropogenic global warming? The author claims that our Sun is the main driver of global temperatures and that humans have little effect on the climate. The Church of Climatology, led by its high priest Al Gore, would like to burn John L. Casey at the stake for such heresy but the evidence is mounting that Casey may be right (https://t.co/mIeCeAcxvg).
