Good article, in general

Your signature lines are political and inaccurate. Why confuse the solar
cycle with global warming?

not 'confuse' it, correlate it... there have been several studies that have
correlated solar activity with global temperature changes. if we are indeed
in a relatively active part of a long term solar fluctuation (hundreds of
years not dozens) then does it not make sense that the solar activity may be
warming us up?? Even other planets are being affected, read to the last
line of the explanation of this pretty pictu

Surely you can't blame human activity on global warming on Jupiter... even
though we have dumped a bit of left over space debris in there recently.
