The world stopped getting warmer almost 16 years ago, according to new data released last week.
The figures, which have triggered debate among climate scientists, reveal that from the beginning of 1997 until August 2012, there was no discernible rise in aggregate global temperatures.
This means that the ‘plateau’ or ‘pause’ in global warming has now lasted for about the same time as the previous period when temperatures rose, 1980 to 1996. Before that, temperatures had been stable or declining for about 40 years.
...
Some climate scientists, such as Professor Phil Jones, director of the Climatic Research Unit at the University of East Anglia, last week dismissed the significance of the plateau, saying that 15 or 16 years is too short a period from which to draw conclusions.
LMAO - THAT IS JUST SO DAMN FUNNY that it's TRAGIC.
People like the 'editor' of this article let jerks like Phil Jones GET AWAY WITH THIS SHIT - rather than calling them on it - and refusing to print assnine stupidity such as this.
Still, ya gots ta chuckle at the level of chutzpah, N'est Ce Pas ?
