Solar – Climate Relationship
Fewer Magnetic Sunspots ➡️
Less Solar Wind ➡️
More Galactic Cosmic Rays ➡️
More Low Level Cloud Formation ➡️
More Sunlight Reflected Into Space.
Result: Earth Becomes Colder

Glacial Retreat in Glacier Bay, AK
• Latest retreat started 1750
- Was the end of the Little Ice Age
• By 1794 had retreated several miles
• By 1870 had retreated over 30 miles
• Glacier Bay was mostly ice-free by 1900
Predates most of man-made CO2

My Two Conclusions
The Sun is the primary driver of climate change.
The Sun has far greater impact on climate than
changes in CO2.
