BBC: A new study suggests that the ban on ozone depleting chemicals may have also impacted the rise in global temperatures. CFC gases were responsible for a massive hole in the ozone layer but they also had a powerful greenhouse effect. The authors link a ban on their use to a "pause" or slowdown in temperature increases since the mid 1990s. The research is published in the journal Nature Geoscience. The subject of a hiatus or standstill in global temperatures rises since 1998 has been the...

What's in a name? Would 'the pause' by any other name help climate scientists communicate?

ClimateWire: In a recent edition of NASA's "Ask a Climate Scientist" video series, scientist Joshua Willis stands in front of a black screen, makes a few goofy faces and gives a brief answer to what has become a common question about climate science. "A lot of people ask me: 'Has there been a pause in global warming because, like, temperatures aren't increasing as fast as they were a decade ago?'" Willis says. "And I always say, you know, paws are for kittens and puppies, because global warming is definitely...

Who created the global warming pause?

Grist: In a major report [PDF] released late last month, the United Nations` Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, the world`s leading authority on climate science, told us it was more certain than ever that humans are causing global warming. It also upgraded its projections for sea-level rise by the end of the century, and even broached the subject of climate change`s irreversibility: We may already have done so much harm to the Earth that some of it can`t be undone in our lifetimes, or even in the...

'Pause' does not show flaw in science

Sydney Morning Herald: A so-called ''pause'' in global warming was addressed by climate scientists in a new report because governments had asked for an explanation, not because it exposes a flaw in the science, a leading climate scientist says. The report noted an ''observed reduction in [the] surface warming trend over the period 1998-2012''. CSIRO climate scientist Dr Steve Rintoul was co-ordinating lead author for the chapter on oceans in the fifth major assessment of the United Nations' Intergovernmental Panel...
