What utter rubbish.

While you won't hear this on 2GB, a quick look at almost all peer reviewed climate journals shows that Earth has warmed since 1880.

Most of this warming has occurred since the 1970s, with the 20 warmest years having occurred since 1981 and with all 10 of the warmest years occurring in the past 12 years.

Even though the 2000s with a solar output decline resulting in an unusually deep solar minimum in 2007-2009, surface temperatures continue to increase.

While surface warming has slowed..it's still going up....and more disturbingly the deep ocean is warming at an alarming rate.

As for the Sun being boring....my H-alpha filter seems to show the Sun is quite active perhaps that PST needs some work??
