Unless the
Lord intervenes, it looks like the earth is heading into a protracted cooling
period caused by a decline in solar activity.

Valentina
Zharkova is a Ukrainian solar researcher with a solid academic background,
world-leading research, and numerous groundbreaking publications. She graduated
with top honors in applied mathematics from Kiev National University (KNU) in
1975. Zharkova obtained her doctorate in astrophysics, specializing in
"Radiative Transfer of Solar Prominences," at the Astronomical Main
Observatory in Kiev in 1984. She worked as a researcher and lecturer at KNU for
many years.
In
1992, Zharkova moved to the United Kingdom and became a leading researcher at
the University of Glasgow, studying energy particles in solar flares. After
extensive research, she discovered that solar flares were triggered by solar
quakes, and in 1998, her groundbreaking discovery was published in the
prestigious scientific journal Nature.
In
2000, Zharkova became a lecturer at Bradford University, and in 2005, she
became a professor of applied mathematics. In September 2013, she was employed
by Northumbria University as a professor of mathematics and physics. During her
time there, Zharkova published over 200 articles, including 3 articles in
Nature-affiliated journals. It was one of these articles that predicted the
modern Grand Solar Minimum, which she believes will affect the Earth between
2020 and 2053. Interestingly, 2020 was also the year when the alleged
coronavirus pandemic was used to implement extensive lockdowns and the
introduction of “The New Normal,” which several countries have since made
permanent, with the explanation that the world will never be the same again.
Professor
Zharkova has authored a monograph on particle kinetics, served as an editor for
a book on automated recognition and classification of digital images, and wrote
the RHESSI book on high-energy particles. The solar researcher has also
contributed to 18 other books. Zharkova has previously received funding from
the European Commission, EPSRC, STFC, Royal Society, RAS, and the US Air Force.
In
a 2019 interview with the award-winning Canadian journalist Stuart McNish on
his program “Conversations That Matter,” Zharkova explained with great
seriousness and caution that solar researchers have been observing signs since
2015 that solar activity is decreasing in a manner only seen during the Grand
Solar Minimum, which last occurred during the Maunder Minimum 400 years ago.
She cites NOAA, NASA, and other research organizations that have noted this
trend in various ways but have not communicated it to the public. Zharkova
asserts that the significantly reduced solar activity, which we have barely
witnessed the beginning of, will inevitably lead to dramatic climate and
weather changes as well as global cooling. She also specifies the time period
she believes will be the worst:
“Between
cycle 25 and 11 years of cycle 26 [the least active cycle], and between cycle
26 and 27, will be the coldest period on Earth, and we will feel it through a
lack of vegetation.”
Therefore,
starting after the active period during this cycle SC25, from the second half
of this decade until the early 2050s, Earth will experience exceptional cold,
extreme weather, earthquakes, and volcanic eruptions. She points to 2030 as the
year when it will seriously begin, warning that the 2030s will be so cold that
it will result in a severe food shortage.
A longer
analysis of this phenomenon is presented here.
Even if the
cooling and its consequences aren’t as severe as the worst-case scenario
discussed above, this forecast still raises serious questions about energy
policy in the US.
First,
regarding carbon capture – with lower temperatures, farming will be more
difficult, but as was mentioned in this
article, lowering carbon dioxide levels in the air will also hamper the
growth of crops (sunlight + CO2 + H2O = food for plants; i.e., photosynthesis). It would be extremely foolish of us, knowing
what’s coming, to try to drastically lower carbon dioxide levels; we should not
by any means make it more difficult to produce food. This consideration alone is sufficient reason
to scrap carbon capture projects altogether.
Second, any
State government with a shred of good sense needs to scrap major green energy
projects (solar and wind) for more reliable energy production methods (mainly
hydrocarbons and nuclear). . . .
