Climate change could happen slower for the next decade, study says

The study, published in the journal Science, explained the temporary slowdown in rising temperatures as a potential consequence of the end of a 30-year current cycle in the Atlantic Ocean that pushes heat into the ocean.
“In the 21st century, surface warming slowed as more heat moved into deeper oceans,” the study says.
Despite this brief respite, the study says temperatures will begin to rise more quickly after the cycle is complete.
However, a different study published by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) warned that the slowdown in global warming does not mean the atmosphere will not continue to heat up at a faster rate.
