NASA Admits Sun Plays Significant Role in Global Warming

By Ian Brockwell  

Whilst this news may seem like a statement of the obvious, many of the leading researchers involved in studying climate change have long insisted that man is to blame for the increased temperatures seen in past years, and that solar activity played little or no part in this factor.

However, a recent study by NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center has accepted that solar activity over the last century has made a 'significant' impact on our planet's climate.

Confirmation of this fact has readily been available on the internet for some time, when it was discovered that cooler periods on the Earth coincided with very low solar activity (few or no Sun spots). The opposite was also true, with increased temperatures seen when activity was high.

Our Sun goes through eleven year cycles, where we experience solar minimums and solar maximums. At present we are heading towards another solar maximum, which is expected to take place in 2012.

Until quite recently, we went through a period where no Sun spots were recorded at all, which may account for the colder weather seen in many countries over the last few years, although we are still being told that our planet is experiencing record high temperatures and that these are increasing.

It is true that some countries have seen higher than normal temperatures, but in the past few months parts of Europe and North America have witnessed the coldest weather in more than a hundred years.

Clearly, the Sun is a factor, but you don't need to be a scientist to know that. However, the regional climate changes may be due to other reasons, which exclude the Sun and almost certainly any contribution from man.

Historic research has shown that many parts of our planet have experienced different climates in the past. Some deserts used to be much more fertile, with forests and a plentiful supply of water. Areas currently covered in ice (for most of the year) once enjoyed much milder temperatures, which suggests that changes can and will take place (for whatever reason). Maybe the period prior to a pole shift can affect regional climates?

Climate changes may also be due to as yet undiscovered 'Cosmic' factors. Just because our technology or scientists are unable to notice anything, does not mean that the possibility can be ruled out.

There are many who believe that our leaders know exactly what is causing the changes, but prefer to keep this information to themselves. This may explain the existence of 'Chemtrails', which appears to be an attempt to create a shield of some sort (against cosmic rays?), although views vary considerably on their true purpose.

Manipulating the facts about Climate Change appears to produce two results at the moment, fear and profit, but it remains to be seen whether other motives may become apparent.
