No Global Cooling Miracle: Sun's Activity Lull Will Stop Soon, Study Suggests

Variations in solar activity have significant consequences for us here on Earth. For example, powerful CMEs that slam into our planet can spawn big geomagnetic storms that disrupt satellite communications and power grids. High-activity solar cycles pump out more strong CMEs, triggering more such storms.

And these variations may also impact climate. For example, some recent research has tied big solar eruptions to reduced cloud formation, potentially affecting how much solar radiation makes it down to the planet's surface and how much gets bounced back to space.
