SCIENTISTS claim we are in for a decade-long freeze as the sun slows down solar activity by up to 60 per cent.
A team of European researchers have unveiled a scientific model showing that the Earth is likely to experience a “mini ice age” from 2030 to 2040 as a result of decreased solar activity.
Their findings will infuriate environmental campaigners who argue by 2030 we could be facing increased sea levels and flooding due to glacial melt at the poles.
However, at the National Astronomy Meeting in Wales, Northumbria University professor Valentina Zharkova said fluctuations an 11-year cycle of solar activity the sun goes through would be responsible for a freeze, the like of which has not been experienced since the 1600s.
From 1645 to 1715 global temperatures dropped due to low solar activity so much that the planet experienced a 70-year ice age known as Maunder Minimum which saw the River Thames in London completely frozen.

Good, it has been too damm hot.
It's that darned old Global Warming at it again.......OOPS, colder, oh my gosh, how can I spin this to keep perpetuating the global warming garbage....?????? LOL
Of course, what the sun does is a direct result of our use of oil, coal, and natural gas! Well, no, how could it?
Or is it the solar panels are soaking up all the sun's rays and THAT'S what's cooling everything down!
I've found it! Take down the solar panels and green energy projects!
