“When we average temperature over five or 10 years to minimise that variability, we find global warming is continuing unabated,” Mr Hansen said.
Global warming has slowed in the last decade, according to the Met Office, as the world pumps out so much pollution it is reflecting the sun’s rays and causing a cooling effect.
When the Earth warms, it is due to burning coal. When the Earth cools it is also due to burning coal. It is warming and cooling at the same time, due to burning coal.
