When it comes to global warming discussion, many people think the climate will exclusively rise in temperature and at a consistent rate.
And any time it doesn’t, some want an explanation.
The speed at which the earth has been warming has noticeably slowed since about 1998, scientists say, even though last year was the hottest year on record. Some scientists attributed the slowdown to the natural randomness of global temperature, which paved way for climate change deniers to doubt the science of a warming planet from human activity altogether.
