Poking holes in Mann's 'global cooling' assertions

I’m writing in response to Randy Mann’s “Sunspot Activity is Non-Existent” weather column that was published in the Press on Nov. 26 of last year. In the column Mann predicts that a multidecadal period of low sun activity, called a grand solar minimum, would begin in the next year or two. If this were to occur, he says it would trigger a period of planetary cooling. He goes on to describe how less sunspot activity (such as during the Maunder Minimum 300 years ago) caused the European “Little Ice Age,” and how greater sunspot activity was responsible for the Medieval Warm Period. He also cites some recent scientific studies that he says support these ideas. I work in the sciences and this narrative didn’t sound quite right to me, so I took a look at the research studies he mentioned. Here is what I learned — and it isn’t pretty.
