Despite this apparent hiatus in temperature rising, leaders from around the world are due to meet in Paris later this year for the United Nations Climate Summit. The leaders are expected to reaffirm their target of keeping the global average temperature within 2¬∞C of pre-industrial levels.https://climatechangedispatch.com/wp-content/uploads/images_pics8_earth_cold.jpg
