Unfortunately might be true. I was listening to an episode of radio lab and they even pointed out that we’re in a solar cycle right now that is supposed to be cold and the peak was in 2019. So as the solar cycle swings back it’ll only get worse and worse… not all doom and gloom, humans will adapt we have the brainpower to do it. But I’m gonna miss the wildlife we have today

Solar cycles repeat every ~~11 years~~ 5-25 years. It's not a situation where the sun will give off more and more heat for a long time. For the purposes of climate change, effects of the hot cycle is miniscule compared to what greenhouse gasses do.

I understand this, however when you’re in the middle of a cold cycle and we’re setting record temps daily. That’s a bit worrisome for just how much we’ve fucked up. There are also different kinds of cycle larger ones spanning decades and the mini ones you mention, on the podcast they mention we’re in a mini cold cycle

Wvery 5 to 25 years. It's not a set cycle.

Nah. Antarctica will still have winters even in the craziest scenarios.
