I wonder if that is true.  They start out with a reference to the
mythological and mystical doom that awaits us in 2012.  This gets people
thinking about myths and media driven rubbish.  This has nothing to do with
climate change but it is a good debating trick.  The trick is called guilt
by association.  It goes: A is rubbish, assume B is like A, therefore B is
rubbish.

They then go on to bring out the old climate change is caused by the sun
canard.  Specifically in this case it is the sunspot cycle.  While it is
thought that solar forcing is a component of climate change it is not the
only factor.  Something has caused a cycle of ice ages and warmer periods
over millions of years - the sun.  However the claim that the current cycle
of warming is entirely due to the sun has been roundly debunked.  The fact
that they quote this Marusek as gospel and fail to even mention there is a
good case against him, much less explain the case against his view, tells me
that the author is not even handed and looking for truth but pushing an
agenda.



Well I suggest that you keep looking.  So far all you are finding are sites
(such as the above and junkscience.com) run by contrarians and lobbyists.
Why won't you read anything by actual climate scientists?

how about this.Inhofe Comments on Obama Copenhagen AnnouncementWashington,
D.C.-Sen. James M. Inhofe (R-Okla.), Ranking Member of theSenate Committee on
Environment and Public Works, today commented on thenews that President Obama
will travel to Copenhagen, Denmark for the UnitedNations Climate Conference."I
suspect President Obama is making the trip to Copenhagen in order to'save' the
climate conference," Sen. Inhofe said. "Yet no amount of loftyrhetoric or
promises of future commitments can save it. This is due in largepart to the fact
cap-and-trade legislation in the Senate is dying on thevine, and, as important,
recent revelations of leading climate scientistswho appear to have manufactured
the climate 'consensus'-revelations thatcast doubt over the entire global
warming enterprise."Moreover, it's clear that China, India, and the developing
world, whichwill soon be responsible for the vast bulk of greenhouse gas
emissions, willnot accept mandatory cuts in emissions-despite entreaties from
PresidentObama. The U.S. Senate has made clear on numerous occasions that
unilateralaction by the United States is unacceptable, because it will harm
oureconomy and have virtually no effect on climate change."
