UN's climate change chief admits there has been no warming for 17 years...

This has been obvious for several years to anyone willing to take an objective look at the temperature charts...

Via The Australian:
THE UN's climate change chief, Rajendra Pachauri, has acknowledged a 17-year pause in global temperature rises, confirmed recently by Britain's Met Office, but said it would need to last "30 to 40 years at least" to break the long-term global warming trend.
Fun fact of the day: Rajendra Pachauri isn't a meteorologist or climate scientist of any kind. He was a railroad engineer.

Rajendra K. Pachauri - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
He was educated at La Martiniere College in Lucknow[4] and at the Indian Railways Institute of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering in Jamalpur, Bihar. He belongs to the Special Class Railway Apprentices, 1958 Batch, an elite scheme which heralded the beginning of mechanical engineering education in India.[5] He began his career with the Indian Railways at the Diesel Locomotive Works in Varanasi. Pachauri was awarded an MS degree in Industrial Engineering from North Carolina State University, Raleigh, in 1972, as well as a joint Ph.D. in Industrial Engineering and Economics in 1974.[6] He lives in Golf Links, New Delhi.
The cheapest houses in Golf Links, New Delhi are reportedly millions of dollars.
