We will hear that 2013 was one of the ten warmest years of recent history (probably one of the seven warmest). And with great certainty the following will be concluded from all this: This is proof that global warming is galloping unhindered, if not accelerating. But according to the statistics this is not the case at all, especially the latter. It cannot be emphasized enough: One of the 'ten warmist' or 'seven warmest' in fact shows that global warming has reached a relatively high level, but also that the dynamic for a further warming has halted, at least for the time being. [...]
In the meantime there's another observation that has been officially recognized. Even the IPCC confirmed in its fifth assessmernt report from last September: There has been no statistically significant warming in the last one and half decades. [...]
Thus global warming has stopped - and has done so even while CO2 emissions have increased unhindered."
