Dear moderators

I have deliberately not signed up for the Political/Environmental sub-forum in order to avoid these kind of conversations. Could this thread perhaps be moved into that area of the forum please?

Thanks in advance for considering my request

Just for the record, and as OP, this thread is about bee husbandry and the heads up about a possibly longer harder winter are offered in good faith so that those who choose to prepare have ample time to do so.
 
Do scientists think that changes in solar irradiance due to the 11-year solar cycle could be strong enough to cause the current change being measured in Earth's climate?

In a word, no. Scientists agree that the solar cycle and its associated short-term changes in irradiance cannot be the main force driving the changes in Earth's climate we are currently seeing. For one thing, the Sun's energy output only changes by up to 0.15% over the course of the cycle, less than what would be needed to force the change in climate that we see. Also, scientists have not been able to find convincing evidence that the 11-yr cycle is mirrored in any aspects of the climate beyond the stratosphere – such as surface temperature, rainfall or wind patterns.
