That article is unscientific alarmist clickbait, Danielle, and shouldn't be promoted even if your intention is sarcasm. See e.g. https://www.pennlive.com/nation-world/2020/05/sun-lockdown-is-a-solar-minimum-really-going-to-bring-famine-freezing-temps-and-droughts-to-earth.html ….

Deleted on account of the NY Post, but factually we are trending to a little ice age because of: SO2 emissions from burning biomass (livestock, bodies) Drop in NO2, NO, Methane, CO2, CO emissions. The wild springing up. Some other effects.

Climate scientists have looked at the short-term effects of the COVID slow-down and found the plausible effects to be trivial. Note that we're still on track for a record warm year globally. Although a significant La Nina might squelch that, this year will still come close.

I'm a climate scientist and I think this is way too early to call, since we're not even out of the first wave.

Why do you say you're a climate scientist? Anyway, a little discussion here from some leading ones: https://twitter.com/DrJamesEHansen/status/1260940650335305728?s=19 ….
Steve Bloom added,
James Edward Hansen @DrJamesEHansenDon’t bet on record 2020 global temperature. Depends a lot on developing Pacific temperatures, and on the unknown aerosol changes due to#COVID19. - https://mailchi.mp/caa/2020-record-warm-year-dont-bet-on-it …#ClimateChange#GlobalWarming#GlobalTemperature#CO2#aerosols pic.twitter.com/z4T3antvgn1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

I have deep background in aerosol physics, weather prediction, geoengineering, statistical mechanics, atmospheric dynamics, systems dynamics, and the physics of systems far from equilibrium. I earned a university medal, graduating in physics and computer science at 17. MIT-TR35

You're a certifiably very smart person with a solid science background, which I knew, *but* re climate science specifically you have no research history or publications, or even anything in the gray lit. 1/

I have no publications in any of these fields, and despite having 63 issued patents, I have stopped applying for those also. The system is corrupt and a waste of time.

If you want to establish those as standards, that is fine, we can end this conversation.
