For the full supporting article and lots of background information and links, go to: http://worldcyclesinstitute.com/dont-… Climate is cyclical … like just about anything else in the Universe. Stick around long enough and you’ll experience it again. Let’s look at some examples. Each year has four seasons. I don’t think anyone would argue that fact, except maybe around the equator, where the seasons just don’t vary that much. Every year, we get these four seasons that happen right on schedule. They always have, and always will. These are cycles. Just like the tides. Now, tides are created by the moon and the sun … every twelve and a half hours. Some cycles are stronger, when the moon and sun are aligned in a row … the tides then are much larger. We call these spring tides and they happen twice a month. But what if seasons were similar? What if there were larger length seasons that cycled every twenty five years … and even larger one every hundred years. Dr. Ralph Wheeler discovered in fact, that there are. Dr. Wheeler spent his entire life analyzing weather cycles back over 20 centuries to 600 BC. He found that major climate cycles changed every 25, 100, 500, and 1000 years and that they’re fractal, which means there are smaller cycles within larger cycles. While we’ve had 25 years of very warm weather from about 1980 to 2000, the period before that was quite cool. In fact there were articles in all the major newspapers predicting a mini ice age. Well, you’re likely to see those again. Here are the four twenty-five year cycles: Spring: warm and wet, Summer, warm and dry, Fall: cool and wet, and Winter: cold and dry. (VISUAL) You can see how these are waves … more specifically sine waves. These cycles influence just about everything that happens on Earth. So, let’s look at this past century The roaring 20s were mostly wet and warm, but in 1929, it got very cold – the mercury plunged. Cold and dry has always led to tough economic times. The stock market crashed. Then the next year, 1930, was the driest year in over 150 years. It ushered in ten straight years of dry and hot – about the hottest on record: The Great Depression. Hot and dry weather in history has led to a major war, despotism, dictators, socialism, communism … Adolf Hitler, WWII. In the mid 40s, it turned warm and wet … the economy picked up and the war ended. It lasted through to the 60’s, when it started to cool down, we had the Beatles, love and flowers … great times! But in the late 60s, we turned cold and dry … and that led to a deep recession that lasted through the late 70s. Lots of newspaper articles warned about the coming ice age. But then it turned warm again, the stock market turned up, and business started to boom! It was a warm-wet spring cycle once again—that means prosperity … and that lasted through the 90s, when it also started to get dry again. These climate cycles happen so regularly, that in the 1940s Dr. Wheeler predicted the current change in climate with his drought clock. And sure enough, in 1998, the temperature started to cool and we’ve been getting cooler and dyer ever since. Here’s a chart of the temperature … flat … and starting to get cooler … and we all know how dry it is … look at California. He also predicted extreme weather in the early twenty first century because we’re at the end of an even larger five hundred year cycle. Two climate cycles are transitioning right now. That’s why we have such extreme weather. We’ve been moving from a warm dry climate generally to cold and dry. So … global warmers, you want cooler weather? … careful what you wish for … because it means really tough times economically. In fact, we’re heading into a depression … just like we have so many times before … all through history. Cool and dry is winter … it means civil wars, revolution, migration, riots, class struggles between rich and poor … society changes … with the weather … always has, always will. But the good news is that if you’re prepared, it’s a fabulous time to be alive. Great opportunities came from the 30s … they’ll come from the next ten years. We’ll have a revolution around the world but end up with more democracy, romance, simpler lifestyles, and change for the better we can’t even imagine. Climate is cyclical. Don’t like the weather? Wait a few decades.
