'The Earth's temperature may stay roughly the same for a decade, as natural climate cycles enter a cooling phase, scientists have predicted.
The key to the new prediction is the natural cycle of ocean temperatures called the Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation (AMO), which is closely related to the warm currents that bring heat from the tropics to the shores of Europe.
The cause of the oscillation is not well understood, but the cycle appears to come round about every 60 to 70 years.
It may partly explain why temperatures rose in the early years (before the industrial revolution) of the last century before beginning to cool in the 1940s (when the industrial revolution started).'

Cows fart more CO2 than man produces.
Once the current 'natural warming cycle' passes and the next ice age begins the future populus will look back and see how we were all conned into paying huge 'green taxes'.
