Since most of the measures required to slow the warming, from greatly increasing energy efficiency to land reform in poor nations, would carry other great benefits, and since the probability of unprecedented change appears to be in the vicinity of 50 percent, a very large social effort, one incurring substantial costs, seems to us not simply justified but virtually mandatory.

Guemas et al. (Nature Climate Change 2013) shows that the slower warming of the last ten years can not be explained by a change in the radiative balance of our Earth, but rather by a change in the heat storage of the oceans, and that this can be at least partially reproduced by climate models, if one accounts for the natural fluctuations associated with El Niño in the initialization of the models.

I understand that idea, I just don't understand how natural variables could have caused 2000 - 2008 to slow the warming.

From what I understand of the historical record, temperatures moved in line with CO2 with a slow warming superimposed on this (or a slow drop in CO2 levels superimposed).

This recent slower warming in the upper ocean is closely related to the slower warming of the global surface temperature, because the temperature of the overlaying atmosphere is strongly coupled to the temperature of the ocean surface.

This is not news about the temperature record, its a new adjusted temperature index in keeping with Taminos original discussion, in the face of slowing warming

If we lower these emissions by a lot and keep below 400 - 450 ppm CO2 and watch those methane emissions and melting permafrost we can significantly slow the warming in 60 - 100 years and reduce the risks in the couple of decades, adjusting for the lag phase.

What does happen in a giben month, year and sometimes decades is faster or slower warming for the given time period, but this does not reverse the warming trend or do anything to refute the dangers to health that GHG's present with.

A slower warming rate will occur in the second half of the century, assuming that the climate forcing growth rate begins to trend downward before 2050.

The recent slower warming is mainly explained by the fact that in recent years the La Niña state in the tropical Pacific prevailed, in which the eastern Pacific is cold and the ocean stores more heat (2).

There's been much discussion recently of quick, cheap steps, with many benefits, that could slow warming driven by the atmospheric buildup of heat - trapping greenhouse gases.

That's for pingos underneath the ocean, where slow warming has thawed the seabed — which can collapse into a «moat» — but the material (brown, red arrows) being forced up from below is dense mud and rock and clathrate and ice.

As described above, I think (just like Trenberth) that natural variability, in particular ENSO and PDO, is the main reason the recent slower warming.

In a transient situation (such as we have at present), there is a lag related to the slow warm up of the oceans, which implies that the temperature takes a number of decades to catch up with the forcings.

The latter brings a somewhat slower warming at the surface of our planet, because more heat is stored deeper in the ocean.

Despite the optimism of our efforts to slow warming, many of us sensed that really dire news was lurking just below the surface.

We could slow the warming by reducing emissions, of course.

In terms of the aerosols: If you want to argue really simplistic, you could still explain what is seen in Dave's NH - SH time series: due to the larger thermal inertia of the SH, you would expect slower warming there with greenhouse gas forcing, so an increase in NH - SH early on, which would then be reduced as aerosol forcing becomes stronger in the NH.
