About this ebook

The effect of the sun's activity on climate change has been either scarcely known or overlooked. In this momentous book, Professor Fritz Vahrenholt and Dr Sebastian Luning demonstrate that the critical cause of global temperature change has been, and continues to be, the sun's activity. Vahrenholt and Luning reveal that four concurrent solar cycles master the earth's temperature – a climatic reality upon which man's carbon emissions bear little significance. The sun's present cooling phase, precisely monitored in this work, renders the catastrophic prospects put about by the Inter-Governmental Panel on Climate Change and the 'green agenda' dominant in contemporary Western politics as nothing less than impossible.

    This is a very good book, and does justice to the fact that we - or scientists - do not take the effect of the sun into their calculations when talking about climate change. I have been surprised that Germany has so many solar power installations, considering that it has very little sunshine.Yes, indeed, there does seem to be a case for taking the sun's effects into the calculations while estimating climate change, and if indeed the sun is going through a cooling phase, it may explain, in part, why there are such cold winters in certain parts of the world.I am not sure about the 1,000 year cycles, as we cannot estimate the accuracy of measurements 1,000 years ago.Also, I am a little wary of the rather strident tone in the book. This can seem colored, and I wonder if their own bias sometimes overshadows the effects of the other factors on climate change. The book uses a lot of data from Europe, and many parts of the world seem to be neglected in it's analysis. Does pollution in Asia affect the climate?This is a good book, and it raises some very valid points.
