The Triple Crown of Global Cooling

And you thought that the unscientific, unproven fraud called anthropogenic global warming/climate change was the bane of our planet. (If you are a dimwitted prog or a kool-aid drinker, that is.) If you can get past the BS, then you might even learn that there is something else going on — naturally, involving the earth, sea, and sun — that could quite possibly do even more serious damage to life on Planet Earth as we know it.
"Global warming" may become one of those quaint cocktail party conversations of the past if three key climate drivers - cooling North Pacific sea surface temperatures, extremely low solar activity and increased volcanic eruptions - converge to form a "perfect storm" of plummeting temperatures that send our planet into a long-term cool-down lasting 20 or 30 years or longer.
"There are some wild cards that are different from what we saw when we came out of the last warm PDO [Pacific Decadal Oscillation] and entered its cool phase [1947 to 1976]. Now we have a very weak solar cycle and the possibility of increased volcanic activity. Together, they would create what I call the 'Triple Crown of Cooling,'" says Accuweather meteorologist Joe Bastardi.
If all three climate-change ingredients come together, it would be a recipe for dangerously cold temperatures that would shorten the agricultural growing season in northern latitudes, crippling grain production in the wheat belts of the United States and Canada and triggering widespread food shortages and famine.
Mythical AGW is not the bane of our planet. Mythical AGW is the bane of our economy and possibly even our civilization — through stifling industrial regulations, insane CAFE standards, and economy-crushing cap-and-tax laws. There are even some rats scrambling from the sinking Green Economy ship — take a lead from them.
Folks, we could have another thing coming entirely, that we mere mortals couldn't change even if we all hoped real hard.
