We'll All Soon Wish They Hadn't Stopped Freon Production

The American Astronomical Society reports that we are likely headed for a period of low solar activity. This could equate to a new 'Maunder Minimum' (also known as the 'Little Ice Age' in Europe).

“If we are right,” Hill concluded, “this could be the last solar maximum
we’ll see for a few decades. That would affect everything from space
exploration to Earth’s climate.”
Not to mention things like food production, habitation, etc.  I'd stock up on fur if I were you.  Be prepared for global warming cultists to claim that no amount of cooling will be able to overcome it--or that it is all just postponing our certain day of reckoning.
