TRUMP and PRUITT get the SCIENCE RIGHT -
NATURAL CYCLES DRIVE CLIMATE CHANGE.
Climate is controlled by natural cycles. Earth is just past the 2003+/- peak of a millennial cycle and the current cooling trend will likely continue until the next Little Ice Age minimum at about 2650.See the Energy and Environment paper at http://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/0958305X16686488
This paper argues that the methods used by the establishment climate science community are not fit for purpose and that a new forecasting paradigm should be adopted. Earth’s climate is the result of resonances and beats between various quasi-cyclic processes of varying wavelengths. It is not possible to forecast the future unless we have a good understanding of where the earth is in time in relation to the current phases of those different interacting natural quasi periodicities. Evidence is presented specifying the timing and amplitude of the natural 60+/- year and, more importantly, 1,000 year periodicities (observed emergent behaviors) that are so obvious in the temperature record. Data related to the solar climate driver is discussed and the solar cycle 22 low in the neutron count (high solar activity) in 1991 is identified as a solar activity millennial peak and correlated with the millennial peak -inversion point – in the RSS temperature trend in about 2003. The cyclic trends are projected forward and predict a probable general temperature decline in the coming decades and centuries. Estimates of the timing and amplitude of the coming cooling are made. If the real climate outcomes follow a trend which approaches the near term forecasts of this working hypothesis, the divergence between the IPCC forecasts and those projected by this paper will be so large by 2021 as to make the current, supposedly actionable, level of confidence in the IPCC forecasts untenable.”

Fear of worldwide nuclear annihilation convinced world leaders to unite nations and national academies of sciences under the UN on 24 OCT 1945 to hide the source of energy in atomic bombs from the public by inserting the logical error Weizsacker and Chadwick made in 1935 into textbooks of nuclear physics, worldwide.
It worked!
But it required huge sums of public funds to promote these false models of reality with Nobel Prizes and public research grant funds:
1. Standard Climate Model
2. Standard Nuclear Model
3. Standard Solar Model
4. Big Bang Cosmology !
Just today the Washington Post published this headline:
Scientists say the rate of sea level rise has nearly tripled since 1990
Anyone who follows the sea level issue via tide gauges and satellite records knows that over the last 100 years there's been no acceleration in the rate of sea level rise.
Trump will fail if he cannot take back control of the annual reviews of programs and budgets of federal agencies from the US NAS
