How convenient. The authors pick the peak of the 1998 very strong ENSO as their "starting point" and the peak of the very strong ENSO of 2015-2016 as their "end point"... Apparently, the authors conveniently ignore the fact that in the intervening years (2001 through 2014) their infamous "greenhouse warming" model failed as the warming trend became a cooling trend! One has to wonder, in claiming "2015 and 2016 [were] the two warmest years on record" did they use the "cooked" historical data to exaggerate their claim, or was the real raw historical data used? Excellent reasons to ignore anything Nature pronounces on this subject!]]></description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Regarding: “More recent observations demonstrate that despite the apparent hiatus, the climate is continuing to warm, with 2015 and 2016 being the two warmest years on record.”</p> <p>How convenient.
