With three studies concluding that the sun is going quiet, and sun spots will be vanishing, we are left wondering what that will mean to our families in the coming decades.
The last time sunspots vanished from the sun for decades was during the Maunder Minimum from 1645 to 1700 AD was marked by drastic cooling of the climate and the maximum cold of the Little Ice Age. Millions starved to death as crops failed around the world.
If you are truly interested please read The Little Ice Age: How Climate Made History 1300-1850, by Brian Fagan, especially the chapters on the Maunder Minimum.
