In other words, the “cooling trend” of parts of the Antarctic Ocean (due to disruptions of ocean currents due to climate change) has YET to show the warming at the surface that will eventually manifest — due to “anthropogenic” change. Anthropogenic change is defined by the United Nations as: “Climate change refers to long-term shifts in temperatures and weather patterns. These shifts may be natural, but since the 1800s, human activities have been the main driver of climate change, primarily due to the burning of fossil fuels (like coal, oil, and gas) which produces heat-trapping gases.”

To paraphrase the old Shakespeare quote: “Hoist(ed) on your own petard.”

I'll believe the Magic 8 Ball before I believe anything the United Nations says.
