Without going into detail, a GSM presages not only ice age conditions in the northern latitudes, but also catastrophic volcanic and seismic activity of biblical proportions around the globe. In the twinkling of an eye, our world will become a very grim place indeed. The solar energy obscuring particulates spewed into the atmosphere from the eruption of just one super volcano could plummet temperatures in a matter of a few days.
As if that were not bad enough, as the heliosphere contracts during a GSM, meteors/asteroids/comets will be drawn into the inner solar system where they have the high potential of wreaking havoc on this planet.
