The Global Cooling Predictions

‘The present global warming occurs during a warm climatic cycle, suggesting that only part of it can be attributed to increased atmospheric CO2 If the cycles continue as in the past, the current warm cycle should end in the next few years, and global warming should abate, rather than increase, in the coming decades.’ –Don Easterbrook & Dori Kovanen, November 2001 THE NEXT 25 YEARS: GLOBAL WARMING OR GLOBAL COOLING?—GEOLOGIC AND OCEANOGRAPHIC EVIDENCE FOR CYCLICAL CLIMATIC OSCILLATIONS

Theodor Landscheidt 2003:

New Little Ice Age Instead of Global Warming?

"We need not wait until 2030 to see whether the forecast of the next deep Gleissberg minimum is correct. A declining trend in solar activity and global temperature should become manifest long before the deepest point in the development. The current 11-year sunspot cycle 23 with its considerably weaker activity seems to be a first indication of the new trend, especially as it was predicted on the basis of solar motion cycles two decades ago. As to temperature, only El Nino periods should interrupt the downward trend, but even El Ninos should become less frequent and strong. The outcome of this further long-range climate forecast solely based on solar activity may be considered to be a touchstone of the IPCC's hypothesis of man-made global warming."

Tsonis published a paper in March 2009 that found the world goes through periods of warming and cooling that tend to last thirty years. He says we are now in a period of cooling that could last up to fifty years.
