You do realise that article was written by a journalist who reviews PC games dont ya(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ Side: Wait..., What? No!
I understand the need for a credible reference and I'm going to give it to here: "The current trends of the tilt and precession cycles should be making the Earth colder according to Figure 2 on the USDA Climate Change Resource Center website." http://www.fs.fed.us/ccrc/primers/ "The Little Ice Age from 1450 to 1920 exemplifies a cold phase of a Bond cycle. Milankovitch & Bond cycles are thought to be driven by changes in the sun" Side: Yay!
there is little to no correlation between sunspots and global climate. Radiative output increases slightly when there are sunspots but the effect that this has on climate is far less than the effect that anthropogenic greenhouse gasses have on global temperatures. Side: Wait..., What? No!
