Hmmm.

"Scientists have found two large leaks in Earth's magnetosphere, the region around our planet that shields us from severe solar storms.

"The leaks are defying many of scientists' previous ideas on how the interaction between Earth's magnetosphere and solar wind occurs: The leaks are in an unexpected location, let in solar particles in faster than expected and the whole interaction works in a manner that is completely the opposite of what scientists had thought."

For some years a few global warming skeptics have argued that solar activity might be a more significant cause to slightly higher temperatures than human activity. This may or may not have anything to do with that.

But that the scientific community was apparently dead wrong about the working of the earth's magnetosphere calls into question the reported scientistic consensus on the cause of climate change.

Or will that beyond debate by a future executive order?
