There are reasons why this is the case, from Oceans absorbing CO2 to the temperature rise is being off-set by the ice-caps melting to things like colder winters in the south. (Remember, the global temperature is generally north+south, where is it opposite seasons).
There are lots of many factors, however, what is funny, the biggest contributor to global warming is infact, vocano's and the 2nd biggest factor is Cows (and domestic lifestock) who produce lots of methane. Man's factor has always been cutting down the trees (who absorb the carbon) and additional input into the atmosphere.
Anyway, there are always periods of warming and cooling, a temporary cooling is the equalivant of moving a cold bottle of water over your body. It is temporary and not the solution.
They should use this time as an opportunity.
