It is a myth to believe that global temperatures have not increased, since most of the highest global temperatures of the last 100 years have occurred within the last ten years. Having said that, there has been an overall hiatus in the short-term warming trend (the last 7-8 years), and that has ONLY been seen in land temperatures. Including ocean temperatures, the increase has continued. And remember, global warming is a long term trend, not a short term variation. Moreover, even if there hasn't been an increase in the last ten years as has been claimed, the present global temperatures are still anomalous, meaning that they still above the running average. Between 2000 and 2009, it was hotter than 75% of the last 11,300 years. So global warming is still happening, and will very likely only get much worse at the present rate of GHG emissions.

"In short, Meyer has shown that his first disastrous book was not a fluke: he is capable of going into any field in which he has no training or research experience and botching it just as badly as he did molecular biology. As I've written before, if you are a complete amateur and don't understand a subject, don't demonstrate the Dunning-Kruger effect by writing a book about it and proving your ignorance to everyone else!
