Sun Spots

Is there any relationship between sun spots and the climate here on earth?  That is a question that well be put to the test in the next few years, since there seems to be an anticipated long term reduction in sun spots, as reported at Watts Up With That, here.  For a news article on same I went to Australia.

As for the Maunder Minimum, it was at a time of cool weather on earth.  But, correlation does not mean causation.  Maybe it is just bad luck.

Hat tip to the Instapundit.
