The Berliner Kurier writes:
For an institute that over the past 20 years has steadfastly insisted that man has been almost the sole factor in climate change over the past century and that the sun no longer plays a role, this is quite remarkable.That's the conclusion that solar physicists of the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research reached when looking at solar activity."
The Berliner Kurier reports that the PIK scientists foresee a weakening of the sun's activity over the coming years.
"That means that conversely it is going to get colder. The scientists are speaking of a little ice age."According to the PIK scientists, the reduced solar activity will, however, not be able to stop the global warming and only brake the warming up to 2100 by 0.3°C.
Comment: A few other examples of huge gas explosions leveling buildings or houses from this year include:
June 2016: Powerful gas explosions rip through street in Urk, the Netherlands: Six houses destroyed
April 2016: Home reduced to rubble after gas explosion in Birmingham, UK
March 2016: Huge gas explosion in Seattle levels two buildings and blows out windows half a block away
Feb 2016: Powerful gas explosion partly destroys residential building in Russia; 7 dead, many feared trapped
Could a 'cosmic' source of ignition be responsible for some of these incidents?
