Must admit I think there was a time in my youth (about 2.8 seconds) I thought if the planet stopped rotating we'd all float away.

The whole point of checking sunspot activity is to see if they correlate to temperature rises. The GRAPH shows that they clearly don't. Sunspot activity was also 75 in 1860 when temperatures were cool. On the other hand temperatures correlate closely with CO2, from the GRAPH.

That is a 50% increase.
You didn't look at the graph you read the text.
The text is an unproven claim.
Yes they maybe right but if you LOOK AT THE GRAPH, then there is an increase in solar activity. That is even a website which supports your opnion. So I think its true.

"...only the 11 and 22 year cycles are clear in the observations..."
That is a 50% increase.

Originally posted by scooterscotYou be surprised how many people believe the planet is closer to the sun during the summer months. Probably the same who have MP after their names.
