    Jo!

    The research summarized below was just reported in the Applied Physics Research Journal. Perhaps you would like to review it on your website or us it in your efforts to bring sanity to the world. It is predicting that we are entering another “Little Ice Age” based on measurements of the heat output of the sun over many years.

    via ICECAP
    Applied Physics Research Vol. 4, No. 1 | February 2012

    Bicentennial Decrease of the Total Solar Irradiance Leads to Unbalanced Thermal Budget of the Earth
    Habibullo I. Abdussamatov, Pulkovo Observatory of the RAS
    Applied Physics Research Vol. 4, No. 1; February 2012
    Abstract

    Temporal changes in the power of the longwave radiation of the system Earth-atmosphere emitted to space always lag behind changes in the power of absorbed solar radiation due to slow change of its enthalpy. That is why the debit and credit parts of the average annual energy budget of the terrestrial globe with its air and water envelope are practically always in an unbalanced state.

    Average annual balance of the thermal budget of the system Earth-atmosphere during long time period will reliably determine the course and value of both an energy excess accumulated by the Earth or the energy deficit in the thermal budget which, with account for data of the TSI forecast, can define and predict well in advance the direction and amplitude of the forthcoming climate changes.

    From the early 1990s we observe bicentennial decrease in both the TSI and the portion of its energy absorbed by the Earth. The Earth as a planet will henceforward have negative balance in the energy budget which will result in the temperature drop in approximately 2014. Due to increase of albedo and decrease of the greenhouse gases atmospheric concentration the absorbed portion of solar energy and the influence of the greenhouse effect It will additionally decline.

    http://icecap.us/images/uploads/Future_TSI.jpg

    The influence of the consecutive chain of feedback effects which can lead to additional drop of temperature will surpass the influence of the TSI decrease. The onset of the deep bicentennial minimum of TSI is expected in 2042plus or minus 11, that of the 19th Little Ice Age in the past 7500 years – in 2055 plus or minus 11.

    http://icecap.us/images/uploads/TSI_Maunder.jpg

    After the maximum of solar cycle 24, from approximately 2014 we can expect the start of the next bicentennial cycle of deep cooling with a Little Ice Age in 2055 plus or minus 11. Thus, long-term variations of TSI (with account for their direct and secondary, based on feedback effects, influence) are the main fundamental cause of climate changes since variations of the Earth climate is mainly determined by a long-term imbalance between the energy of solar radiation entering the upper layers of the Earth’s atmosphere and the total energy emitted from the Earth back to space.

    If I remember correctly I have used Visa to pay via Paypal without opening a Paypal account.

    Can you please check out if this option is still available. I see your Paypal page has a down arrow to select options but it does not work. Possibly you have to turn it on.

    I am not allowed to operate a Paypal account in the country where I live. The reason is that my Visa account is with a US brokerage firm and I live in Malaysia.

    Malaysia does not allow foreigners to operate local debit or credit cards. Catch-22.

    I’m trying to buy chocolate using my VISA card but can’t seem to find the appropriate page.
    Apologies for being obtuse but can anyone help?

    Thank you! Good question, which I need to explain better on the site. Paypal lets you donate with a credit card, even if you don’t have a paypal account. Pick a tip jar in here, and you will get the option on the paypal screen (right hand side – bottom half) to “Pay with a credit or debit card”. Signing up with paypal is “optional”. It looks like a fairly standard form.

    I have just cancelled my regular monthly donations to Action Aid (UK) because they have organised a climate change action day. I would have liked to have set up a regular monthly payment to you for chocolate using these funds but it looks like it would be too expensive sending money from Scotland to Australia in small amounts. Please accept this one off donation to acknowledge all the good work yourself and David have produced over the last few years and I look forward to the next part of David’s grand opus.

    Alan Barron

    Hi Jo,
    There has been some great ads on TV from the Mineral Council of Australia (MCA) based in Brisbane, (see link below)

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AX9Ho1WZ0Ck

    How can we support the MCA? We need to encourage them to keep these ads going for as long as possible. Also we should write to our local members of parliament to encourage them to see the video and to push for the building og HELE power stations in Australia. Unfortunately they believe in man made global warming so favour carbon capture and storage, which is crazy, counter productive.

    It was a big mistake to sell off the power stations. In order for a government to be doing its job, it needs to be doing four things,

    Providing adequate power to run the economy

    Proving adequate water supplies

    Protecting democratic elections.

    Protecting our borders

    AS we all know, State governments have abdicated their responsibility to provide reliable, cheap and stable power. They have given this responsibility to the wind and to the Sun. Nature is increasingly controlling our power supplies. This is a recipe for disaster.

    It’s time we took back ownership of power supplies and built HELE power stations which can produce on demand power 24-7.

    Our water supplies are also at critical levels as no new dams have been in Australia since 1980 –sheer madness! WE are bringing in over one million new people into the country every 4 years, Where is the extra power and water going to come from?

    You can contact Coal21 at:

      Alan, the Minerals Council sometimes to brilliant papers and are very useful, and I cite happily. But I cannot go out of my way to support a group that caved into BHP — thus forsaking most of their members and backed a “clean energy” fairy target.

      I realize there were big forces at work, and it was a torrid challenge they did not ask for. However the reaction was the same as the average spineless committee.

    Stephen, What a novel approach! Interesting idea. I fear though that I have minus 20% of time to spare. I don’t even get time to read some of the books people post me. I want to, but can’t. Feel free to advertise the book and link in comments on appropriate threads — try to be on topic if you are posting at the top. You might have luck convincing people if you post a single para or two of quotes. – Jo

    Dear Jo Nova,
    My sister says “deniers” are rich because the fossil fuel companies give them lots of money, so you must be a rich lady. I like rich ladies. You are my favorite climate lady. I did not want to make a post. I wanted you to think about reading my book. Hey, it only costs $2 and I will make 70 cents if you buy it. It’s not a very good book, but you have a sense of humor; so, I thought you might get a laugh out of it. I am not a climate scientist, but I tried to estimate the temperature change associated with a change in carbon dioxide concentration level. The estimates are kind of nonsensical, so I called the book Climate Nonsense. I think the climate debate is a little nonsensical at times as well. All my estimates come out less than the IPCC’s. I think there could be a reason for that. I think lots of climate people read your blog. Maybe one of them would write a book that shows how much temperature change is caused by carbon dioxide using simple reasoning that an ordinary person (or maybe an ordinary engineer who isn’t a climate scientist) could understand. Since I couldn’t do that accurately, I was hoping someone else would. That person was supposed to read my book and say “This is trash. I can do a much better job.” I will buy their book if it is in my price range (<$10). My book is a Kindle book, but you can read it on your computer if you download free software from Amazon.
    Have a pleasant climate,
    Steve Sprout (it’s a stupid last name, so I used “Adrian” as my last name for my book).

    Once upon a time I thought I saw an option for donating via Bitcoin(BTC).
    In the USA it is possible to xfer funds directly to/from CoinBase directly to/from a bank account.
    (CoinBase is a ‘FTC regulated’ online BTC exchange (unlike MtGox the defunct scam site))
    The exchange rates last time I checked were way better than PayPal and bank2bank.

    You can store BTC in your own wallet on your own PC or even on paper and just move it to your exchange wallet when ready to cash out. For same day transactions the volatility is probably tolerable.

    From my bank –> CoinBase –> your personal or exchange BTC wallet typically only takes 15-30 minutes.

    I don’t know how it is UP OVER (I’m standing on me head just to be different) with Austrailian banks and BTC but if it is an option accounts at exchanges are typically free to open.

    Thanks Jo and crew for doing what you do! 🙂

    Hi Jo,

    Just sending a donation, which will be the first of many to come.

    I have followed the Catallaxy Files for years, & am sad that the new substitutes have now deteriorated with an influx of trolls.

    Your site, on the other hand, is impeccably managed & is a stunning reservoir of talented, astute commentators. Your own posts,of course, are tremendous.

    We have entered such unparalleled times in terms of the astonishing disregard of the tenets of democratic freedoms, that opportunities for dissent, such as you offer, are invaluable.

    I have been a contributor to the letters page of The Australian for decades, & have been a regular head letter contributor. However, since contributing letters of dissent (very mild!) against the vaccination policy & lack of reporting of eminent virologists’ dissent, I have suddenly been rejected on every occasion. Your blog is absolutely vital to the dissemination of various opinions oaths most critical issue.

    Thank you, thank you for the opportunity.

    Hi Jo, I have sent you some British chocolate via PayPal although I previously had no account with them. So I started on the PayPal payment process; PayPal’s blurb said that I could donate chocolate without creating an account with them. However, in the event they forced me, right at the end of the transaction, to create an account otherwise they would not transfer the chocolate to you. Do your readers know whether PayPal are always sneaky in this way?

    Your thoughts, and those of others on all topics are my daily dose of reality. $50 transferred.
    Cheers,
    Geoff from Tanjil

    Made a “non-donation” donation via pay pal. Would have used direct transfer, but the option did not seem to be there. (It is)

    My mistake. Maybe you could increase the prominence of the direct transfer option on the page so others, like me, are less likely to make that mistake.

    Love your work.

    Practically everyday Jo I link your blog in emails to more friends than I deserve to have. So heartening to read astute critiques like yours in these troubling times. May God bless you and David.
