evidence: Claims of a coming 30-year "mini ice age" are not supported by science [...] UPDATE (12 Feb. 2020): The Sun has significantly rewritten this article, including changing the headline to "Claim that Earth will enter ‘mini Ice Age’ for 30 years is wrong, top scientists reveal". It now reads, in part: "One researcher warned that the Sun entering a natural ‘hibernation’ would trigger food shortages and temperature slumps – but current data suggests this is completely untrue." [...] Several articles repeat a claim (seen frequently at certain outlets like The Express) that a "mini ice age", triggered by an extended period of unusually low solar activity is on the horizon. There are two problems with this claim: 1) the solar prediction does not reflect a consensus of scientists, and 2) an extended period of unusually low solar activity would not cause global cooling.
