As always, I’ll stay skeptical, and say that I will believe it when I see it
(Daily Caller) Better start investing in some warm clothes because German scientists are predicting that the Earth will cool over the next century.
German scientists found that two naturally occurring cycles will combine to lower global temperatures during the 21st century, eventually dropping to levels corresponding with the “little ice age†of 1870.
“Due to the de Vries cycle, the global temperature will drop until 2100 to a value corresponding to the ‘little ice age’ of 1870,†write German scientists Horst-Joachim Luedecke and Carl-Otto Weiss of the European Institute for Climate and Energy.
Researchers used historical temperature data and data from cave stalagmites to show a 200-year solar cycle, called the de Vries cycle.
They also factored into their work a well-established 65-year Atlantic and Pacific Ocean oscillation cycle. Global warming that has occurred since 1870 can be attributed almost entirely to both these factors, the scientists argue.
According to the scientists, the oft-cited “stagnation†in rising global temperatures over the last 15 years is due to the Atlantic and Pacific Ocean oscillation cycle, which lasts about 65 years. Ocean oscillation is past its “maximum,†leading to small decreases in global temperature.
Fortunately, if they’re talking 1870, the earth was rebounding from the Little Ice Age at that time, so it won’t be like the true depth of the Little Ice Age, or previous cool periods during the Holocene. But, as The Lonely Conservative writes
In other words, global temperature is controlled by things far outside the realm of human control. What we can control is how we deal with it. So get ready to bundle up!
The mechanisms for Earth’s climate are primarily natural, with a small smattering of anthropogenic causation, mostly from agriculture, landfills, land use, and the Urban Heat Island Effect. But, you know, cold and snow are caused by climate change

Children in Mongolia experience climate change and extreme cold
When we think of climate change we often think of rising temperatures, but children are also affected in colder climates, experiencing harsher winters and declining water resources. In Mongolia some children can spend 3 to 4 hours every day collecting water, braving frozen rivers and wells, and hauling water containers over extremely long distances.
In western Mongolia in 2010, heavy snow, strong winds and extreme cold created crisis conditions in over half the country’s provinces. Temperatures fell to minus-50 degrees Celsius, and snow meant access to food, fuel, sanitation and basic medical care was even tougher.
If the Earth enters a cool period like we saw from the late 1940’s into the late 1970’s, a milder cool time like the 1870’s, or one of the full cool periods as has happened off and on since the end of the last glacial period during the Holocene, Warmists will blame Mankind for it. They already blame Man, ie, “climate change”, for snow, ice, cold, blizzards, winter storms, you name it.
