“It has been claimed that the early-2000s global warming slowdown or hiatus, characterized by a reduced rate of global surface warming, has been overstated, lacks sound scientific basis, or is unsupported by observations. The evidence presented here contradicts these claims.”

Yup!
We are much more at risk for a new ice age than a massive warm up and warm is better than cold.
I think Nature is still on the AGW side here.
Professor of Meterology Leo DiCrapio just won the Oscar for best actor and he went on a gorebull warming rant for his acceptance speech. Algore must be proud.
If politicians and their money men figured out a way to scam taxpayer money by being against Global Warming
they would do an about face so fast it would break the sound barrier.
The Global Warming slowdown was caused by Global Warming.
One of the authors doing the squirming is Michael Mann.
This article is an example of why it is so tragic that climate science has been so horribly politicized. There is no general theory of climate but the progressives act as if there is one that says “it’s a man made global catastrophe and we’re all gonna roast”. Any deviation will be punished by academic death. It is good to see this in Nature.
Could it be because AGW does not exist?
Heaven and Hell will freeze before that admission is made.
When DiCrapio was accepting his Oscar, he conveniently forgot to mention how much fuel his 450 foot motor yacht, Rising Sun uses daily? And while on stage lecturing us about global warming, he failed to mention how much polution pours out of the exhausts from those two massive engines.
Agreed. The chappy I like is Lord Monkton:

He seems to continually put the global warming nutters into their proper places.
This article has more “models” than Victoria’s Secret and more ‘simulations’ that a grade C soft-porn flix.
You just cannot rely on simulation tests/models to accurately deal with reality and all its’ variables, despite using a ton of scientific babbledeegook to try and make it so.
Come around in another 50 years and you might have enough real data to begin to develop real theories of climate behavior and change.
Today it was 60*F in the DC area and yet we still have piles of snow (piled up from plowing) that range up to 3-4 feet high.
See: contradictions can exist with one another for a short while.
We also have seen dandelions, crocuses (season regulars now), pansies (emerging from the snow), and the heads of daffodils ready to open (right on schedule).
Mother Nature has been around much longer than Michael Mann and friends, and in the end, she will rule, simulation models or not.
No doubt they are, but the Party Line until now has been that the hiatus is not "real" because 1) The temperature measurements need to be adjusted, and once properly jury rigged, there is still warming, or 2) the warming effect of CO2 is still happening but temperature increase is being mitigated by other thermal effects which will soon disappear or 3) the temperature increase is not happening because a latent heat -- like storage in the deep oceans -- is temporarily absorbing the energy it or ... 4) Some other phony-baloney excuse.
What is important here is that one of the premiere journals in science is allowing the publication of a paper that says: this is not a measurement error, nor is it a statistical fluke. Warming is not happening. That is a shocking admission.
again-
Yup!
