Why is the sun so damn bright?
Seriously, in recent years I can't even go outside during the evening without being blinded by the sun. This wasn't a problem when I was a kid, in my teens or even in my 20's. I remember back then being outside during the evening without being blinded by the sun.

Now days, I go outside anytime during the evening and the sun is so damn bright I can't even keep my eyes open. It's to the point that I make sure I'm home and inside by 6PM and remain there until the sun goes down because of it. It sucks, but I refuse to make any plans from 9PM until 9PM that involves me being outside. The only exception is if it is cloudy.

What's the deal?

That explanation doesn't fly, I don't buy into that for a second. When I was in my teens and early 20's, older people had no problems with being outside during the evening. I know several older folks in the 70's and 80's who even said that the sun has changed over the last 20 years and that it's much brighter than it has ever been.

When I was in my 20's, my grandpa was in his 80's and he never had any problems being outside during the evening. No sunglasses, wasn't blinded or anything.

Ignore them, they're shills whose goal is to distract others from the truth.

I agree that something is up with the sun, I've noticed how much brighter it is than it use to be. You aren't the only one to notice this.

if the sun was brighter wouldnt that be accompanied by being hotter and thus the earth being hotter?

I don't know about op, but I've never worn sunglasses, there was never a need as the sun wasn't so damn blinding as it is today. I might start having to wear them though as the sun is brighter than it use to be.

Re: Why is the sun so damn bright?
another possibility which does make sense is that the earths atmosphere is thinning, we first noticed this due to the loss of radiowaves more are escaping into space and not boundcing back down to the earth off the ionosphere.

this has become such a problem that the military has employed using additives to the planes fuels to create a conduit for the radio waves to travel back along to try to increase the distance radio commas work over.

have you also noticed you lack radio signals in places you used to be able to get a clear signal?

Re: Why is the sun so damn bright?
Yes, the sun is brighter now. I don't think it is so much that the sun has changed, as our atmosphere has. The color is much whiter and it stings on my skin. Today I could feel it through my shirt. That is radiation. I never burned as a child/young man. 40 years later I burn in less than an hour. Even wearing SPF 45. I do not understand this.

I agree with OP.

The National Solar Observatory should have data on the various frequencies of light emitted by the Sun over the past several decades. [link to www.nso.edu]
