The Sun is Undergoing a State Change --- And That May be Very Bad News
God knows we have plenty of pending catastrophe threads here on ATS. Between imminent WWIII, super volcanos, 2012, global warming, Nibiru, etc. seem like there's no shortage of things to fret over.
But what if the biggest threat, the most legitimate peril is right in front of us but we've become so embroiled in these other discussions that we're essentially missing the boat?

Nothing left to do but enjoy it.

It reveals climate warming on other solar system inhabitants and that the solar system will very soon or maybe even is travelijng through a hot gas cloud.
Climate Change Occurring in Every Planet in Solar System
A thread I've made on the dust cloud. : Could the galactic dust cloud be the same as the Photon belt ? (True science meets fringe theories )

We are being tortured with fear, we are being sold out of fear. In 30-40 years we will still be on the Earth. We could have been hit with the worst solar storms, comets, and super volcanoes and still survive. If we did it in the past with less knowledge and technology, we could endure the future.

Not really. You're suggesting that scientists, in DROVES, are suppressing knowledge of our imminent extinction (because it's too sad, no less). Makes about as perfect sense to me as the "scientists made up dinosaur fossils" religious argument.

Sun watchers know that we seem to be emerging from an extended and particularly quiet Solar Minimum with over 800 spotless days. Just recently the sun has started Solar cycle 24. There is a direct correlation between sunspot activity and global climate and we may have a problem on our hands.
See here.
Take your time reading the article. Lots of data, lots of citations.
