Sunspot Drop Won’t Cause Global Cooling

Sunspot Drop Won’t Cause Global Cooling Wired Science Wired.com
"Most Little Ice Age cooling appears to have been the result of coincidentally high volcanic activity that cloaked Earth in sunlight-blocking soot.
As for the sun, a study published in 2001 in Science found that reduced solar activity produced a cooling effect of about 0.5 degrees Fahrenheit.
In other estimates, the cooling is even more insignificant."
