Scientist: Sun's Burning Hotter Than Usual
2004 07

A German researcher says the sun is burning
at higher temperatures than usual, which shows global warming is not just based
on greenhouse gases.
The sun has been at its strongest over the past 60
years and may now be affecting global temperatures, said Sami Solanki, the
director of the Max Planck Institute for Solar System Research in Gottingen,
Germany, who led the research.
Globally, 1997, 1998 and 2002 were the
hottest years since worldwide weather records were first collated in 1860, the
London Sunday Telegraph said.
The sun is in a changed state. It is
brighter than it was a few hundred years ago and this brightening started
relatively recently -- in the last 100 to 150 years, Solanski said.
Most
scientists have agreed greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide from fossil fuels
have contributed to the warming of the planet in the past few decades, but have
questioned whether other factors beyond human control are also to blame.
Solanki said he doesn't know what is causing the sun to burn brighter or
how long this cycle will last.
