That was played down in the report, which called it a natural phenomenon that is masking the ongoing warming. The findings reiterate the Panel's 2007 assessment that the warming trend is "unequivocal," says Christiana Figueres, the top United Nations' climate officer.
"Everything that we thought we knew about climate change has been underestimated, that we will have much faster and much more intense effects from the growing concentrations of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. So it's a very sobering message that calls for a more invigorated and more accelerated policy response to address that."
Figueres hopes the new IPCC report will compel policymakers to move global climate talks forward.
"That policy response will have to end up in a global agreement that is going to be legally based and applicable to all countries and will be adopted in the year 2015. And for that, governments are already working."
Government leaders and climate experts will get an opportunity to do thatat the next round of climate negotiations in Warsaw, Poland in November. Friday's IPCC report will be followed next year by reports on the impact of climate change and what can be done about it.气候变化论的反对者试图否定这项理论，他们的依据是15年间的大气变暖已放缓的事实。政府间气候变化专门委员会（IPCC）的报告也有提及此自然现象，称其掩盖了气候变暖的事实。这些发现重申了专家组2007年的评估，即变暖的趋势是“明确的”。
联合国最高气候官克里斯蒂安娜·菲格雷斯如是说道，“我们自以为知道的一切有关气候变化的认知均已证实被低估了。由于大气中温室气体含量的日益增长，人类将受到更快更强烈的影响。这是个令人警醒的信息，它呼吁我们采取更有效更迅速的应对政策来解决这个问题。”
菲格雷斯希望新的政府间气候变化专门委员会报告能迫使政策制定者们推进全球气候谈判。
“这个应对政策最终必须落实到一项全球协议上，它应具有法律效力，适用于所有国家，且将于2015年被采纳。为此各政府已经开始行动。”
下一轮气候谈判将于11月在波兰华沙举行。政府领导人和气候专家们可借机探讨应对方法。跟随周五发布的IPCC报告，明年将发表更多有关气候变化的影响以及应对办法的报告。
