It starts:

"Am I worried about man-made global warming? The answer is "no" and
"yes".

No, because the Hadley Centre for Climate Prediction has come up
against an "inconvenient truth". Its research shows that since 1998
the average temperature of the planet has not risen, even though the
concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere has continued to
increase.


Indeed, since last summer, it's actually been getting colder in the
northern hemisphere.


I agree that it got colder in the northern hemisphere after last summer, but
then it started getting warmer during the spring. It does this every year
in case you hadn't noticed.
