Very recommendable!
This article presents some of reasons why climate change (warming and cooling periods) is natural and mostly beyond human influence! My blog has covered most of these reasons before.
Climate on Earth is a very complex natural phenomenon that we still do not understand very well. The hypothesis of greenhouse gases influence on climate change is too primitive and more comparable to superstition!
We still do not even understand what goes on in our oceans that affects the climate on Earth! E.g. the multi-decadal ocean oscillations were only discovered in the 1980s/1990s.
Most climate models on which so much of this alarmism and hysteria depends, are more like junk or garbage in, garbage out!
Remember, the last ice age, i.e. the Little Ice Age, only ended between 1800-1850 CE. What follows an ice age? A warming period?
My summary of some of the causes of climate change as presented in the below article:
- The solar system travels within the Milky Way galaxy
- The Milky Way galaxy travels within the universe
- Variations in Earth’s orbit, axial tilt, and precession. E.g. the Earth's precession follows an about 26,000 year cycle. This precession is not a perfect circle, it is wobbly!
- Do temperature rises actually precede increases in atmospheric CO2?
- Solar activity is not constant, it varies and comes in various cycles of different lengths
"... Beyond terrestrial proxies, Kurz introduces cosmic influences on climate, particularly the role of galactic cosmic rays. These rays, produced by supernovae, vary depending on the solar system’s position within the Milky Way. Kurz claims that every 140 million years, Earth passes through spiral arms of the galaxy, increasing cosmic ray flux. He highlights research suggesting that this correlates with temperature fluctuations, arguing that cosmic rays influence cloud formation by generating ions that act as condensation nuclei. Increased cloud cover, in turn, reflects solar radiation and cools the planet. This mechanism, he suggests, provides an alternative explanation for large-scale climate cycles. ...
Milankovitch cycles, which involve variations in Earth’s orbit, axial tilt, and precession. These cycles, occurring over tens to hundreds of thousands of years, are widely accepted in climate science as drivers of ice ages. Kurz emphasizes that these natural cycles explain historical temperature fluctuations and argues that carbon dioxide plays a secondary role. ...
studies showing that temperature increases precede rises in atmospheric CO2 by several hundred years. He argues that this lag indicates causation flows from temperature to CO2, not vice versa. ...
Another major theme in the discussion is solar variability. Kurz outlines several types of solar cycles, including the 11-year Schwabe cycle and longer millennial-scale cycles identified through isotopic analysis (such as carbon-14 and beryllium-10). These cycles, he argues, align closely with known historical climate periods such as the Roman Warm Period, the Medieval Warm Period, and the Little Ice Age. He suggests that fluctuations in solar activity significantly influence Earth’s climate, though he acknowledges that short-term satellite measurements show only modest temperature changes. ..."
