From the UK Telegraph: "Global warming may stop"
Global warming will stop until at least 2015 because of natural variations in the climate, scientists have said.The computer model (see below) predicts that after 2015, ManBearPig will pose a threat once again and this time the scientists are "super serial."
Researchers studying long-term changes in sea temperatures said they now expect a "lull" for up to a decade while natural variations in climate cancel out the increases caused by man-made greenhouse gas emissions.
The average temperature of the sea around Europe and North America is expected to cool slightly over the decade while the tropical Pacific remains unchanged.
This would mean that the 0.3°C global average temperature rise which has been predicted for the next decade by the UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change may not happen, according to the paper published in the scientific journal Nature.

"Global warming may not happen instantly! We could have a good six or seven years before it reaccelerates! That's as long as the whole run of 'Malcolm in the Middle'! Take THAT, stupid global warming scientists whose research I've just cited!"
"Global warming has a linear relationship with the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere. The amount of CO2 in the atmosphere has been increasing steadily since the late 1850s at least. Therefore, it's obvious that Global Warming is occurring even if it isn't occuring. *ALL* the models predict a straightline increase, so therefore the straightline increase in global temperatures *MUST* exist, even if the stupid scientific instruments that measure it say otherwise. Models are much more truthy than silly measurements."
Thus spake ManBearPig (cbuh).
Golly... who to side with? Such a difficult question.
The preponderance of climate scientists on Earth? Or the "I'm agin it!" faction who dispute all data unless they spot a shiny piece of counterevidence and seize upon it, shouting "Eureka! Now THAT'S what I call science!"
Every national academy of science in the industrialized nations? Or bloggers who invent make-believe "admissions" of error?
The explicitly stated consensus viewpoint of most researchers? Or guys who chant "ManBearPig" like it's the secret password at a meeting of Get Rid Of Slimy girlS?
Honestly, fellows. You're BEHIND GEORGE W. BUSH on the climate change curve. Doesn't that say it all?
When did disregard for the environment become a conservative battle position? So weird and sad.
When did disregarding facts about the bogus nature of global warming ecome an environmental position?
Or is environmentalism made stronger by lies?
Global warming started when the Germans bombed pearl Harbor and ended when Obama's uncle liberated Auschwitz. (duh)
But we're all still gonna die, regardless.
Fur-mongerer

"Disregarding facts."
"I know in my heart that global warming is a lie, because you're disregarding facts."
That's a twisted kind of comedy genius there.
