Global Warming Disclaimer
Ah, those darn scientists think of everything, but really, what do you expect from people that spend so much time getting educated?
The Earth, it seems, might actually cool over the next decade (as it has this past decade) according to German climatologists studying newly devised computer models. But about 2015, watch out! The temperature might start to rise again.
"Just to make things clear, we are not stating that anthropogenic [man-made] climate change won't be as bad as previously thought," said Mojib Latif, a professor at the Leibniz Institute of Marine Sciences in Kiel, northern Germany.So, to follow the logic correctly, if temperatures rise over the next decade it will be the result of man driven activity. However, if temperatures cool over the next decade it will be because of a natural change in Earth temperature cycles, temporarily disguising man's climactic malevolence.
"What we are saying is that on top of the warming trend, there is a long-periodic oscillation that will probably lead to a lower temperature increase than we would expect from the current trend during the next years."
Fellow author Johann Jungclaus of the Max Planck Institute for Meteorology in Hamburg, likened the trend to "driving from the coast to a mountainous area and crossing some hills and valleys before you reach the top."
No word yet on whether the new computer models can explain the warming trend on Mars.

Hmm, it seems your analysis comes from one who didn't thoroughly understand and/or read the article. It seems to make perfect sense that, while global warming happens, natural shifts take the short term temperatures up and down, but global warming's long term effect are still strongly evident. Another telling part of the article is the argument for decreased salinity in the water, slowing down the natural oceanic current. This reduced salinity is due to the melting of the ice sheets on Greenland and in the arctic, another byproduct of global warming.
I appreciate your politeness though I would prefer you leave a name other than anonymous.
That the Earth has warmed over the past century has been pretty much proven though the science behind it is anything but settled.
My point is that regardless of any results of any study taken today, warmists point to the study as proof of man influenced global climate change. All this while conveniently discounting that big ball of fire in the sky overhead.
Right on cue today is this article in Front Page Mag by Steven Milloy.
