    The sun goes in a 11 year sunspot cycle & we are now on cycle 24 (since records begun). The more active the sun the more sunspots and solar flares appear. A hibernation of sunspot activites could bring colder & more unstabled weather on Earth. There is record of this sometime around the 1600s when sunspot activity was very low. Also without high sunspot activity during the 11 year solar cycles, High Frequency (HF, shortwave radio propagation) that relies on refraction from the ionosphere's (F1 & F2 layer) for Worldwide communications, would be poor.
    It will send us into an ice-age within the next ten years. You can find this information on:https://www.iceagenow.com. Also, for more info from a real scientist, who is an Astro-physicist, go to:https://www.weatheraction.com

    The temperature change associated with any reduction in sunspot activity would likely be minimal and may not be enough to offset the impact of greenhouse gases on global warming, according to scientists who have published recent papers on the topic.
