U.S. and European Union envoys are seeking more clarity from the United Nations on a slowdown in global warming that climate skeptics have cited as a reason not to “panic” about environmental changes, leaked documents show.
The UN World Meteorological Organization defines climate as the average weather over a 30-year period, and scientists say the 15-year slowdown isn’t long enough to mark a trend. Hungary and Germany, both EU members, cited this as a reason to delete any reference to the hiatus in the summary, while Japan questioned the purpose of using a 15-year average.

The entire Anthropogenic Global Warming hysteria and the trillions of wasted dollars and corruption of science that’s gone with it, was based on only ~22 years of slight warming 1976-1998.
And 17 years of ZERO warming despite record emissions output isn’t long enough to ask questions?
The whole scam right there – ‘expert’ scientists, acting in open denial, refusing to freely discuss the 15-17 year standstill, which is by far THE hottest piece of science to ever confront the climate story.
It’s not about science, it’s about ideology, agenda and protecting status and funding.
Reblogged this on Health Science Watch.
One local heatwave is a sure sign of CAGW but 15 years of no warming globally is irrelevant.
How convenient!
It’s amazing that they will use the WMO “30 year period” when it suits them. But the WMO also recommends the LATEST 30 year period be used when determining averages – something GISS hasn’t followed for a long time: they still use an averaging period that STARTED in the 1950’s.
According to the NOAA State of the Climate 2008 report…
“Near-zero and even negative trends are common for intervals of a decade or less in the simulations, due to the model’s internal climate variability. The simulations rule out (at the 95% level) zero trends for intervals of 15 yr or more, suggesting that an observed absence of warming of this duration is needed to create a discrepancy with the expected present-day warming rate.”
Yep! The models are definitely getting better, now it takes twice as long to falsify them.
The last warming period was approx. 1982 – 1998. The entire CAGW theory is predicated on about 16 years of warming. It’s interesting that 16 years of warming is enough to create panic, but 16 years of no warming is not significant.
