The draft of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) report, and a summary which is due for release in Stockholm next week, says that factors including a haze of volcanic ash and a cyclical dip in energy emitted from the Sun may also have contributed to slower warming trends. The fact that temperatures have...

As of Tuesday evening, a committee spokesman had insisted the show would go on. From the start, the...
