I don’t know what to make of this report and the underlying data, mostly because I am not a climate scientist and from what I have seen reported on and in my own reading, this stuff defies simple explanation. I looked into the about page on this site and it doesn’t appear to have any evident bias but there really wasn’t enough information to make a firm conclusion on that point, and this is important because it’s increasingly rare to find any scientific news on climate that doesn’t have a political component in either the underlying data or the reporting.

At any rate, if the earth is cooling that may be good but a quick look at history suggests that we actually suffer more as a species from colder weather as a result of food and shelter issues.

Since just January 2007, the world has cooled so much that ALL the global warming over the past three decades has disappeared! This is confirmed by a plot of actual global average temperatures from the best available source, weather satellite data that shows there has been NO net global warming since the satellites were first launched in 1979.
