Global Cooling?

Politicians love crises, especially ones that are more sizzle than substance, but a mini - Ice Age would be the real deal. Plants love warmth and CO2 but ice and cold, not so much. The sun is going through a cycle of reduced sun spots at the moment and historically this has coincided with significantly lower levels of food production, i.e. - the Dark Ages in Europe. It's too soon to know if we are entering such a sustained cycle, but consider the following from the London Daily Telegraph, www.telegraph.co.uk/comment/columnists/christopherbooker/5525933/Crops-under-stress-as-temperatures-fall.html
