…] Over the past decade, global temperature on the Earth has not increased; global warming has ceased, and already there are signs of the future deep temperature drop. […]
Well, that came out a few months after the hottest month of all time, and 6 months later, it was the warmest year ever, for the third year in a row.

Every year after 2014 will be warmer than every year before 2014
GISS calendar year average above 1951-1980 'baseline':
2014: .73C
2015: .87
2016: .99
2017: .90
2018: .82
2019 is coming on strong, possibly a new record. No chance it will be cooler than 2014, and 2014 was above the next warmest year, 2010's .70C.
It's hard to call five-plus years a fluke, and even if it's a cycle, the signal of .2C rise per decade is rising above the noise. Absent a massive volcanic eruption, we're not looking back even to the significant warming that was experienced just nine years ago - we're off in uncharted territory.

A solar minimum would offset no more than a decade’s worth of human-caused global warming
The global mean temperature difference is shown for the time period 1900 to 2100 for the IPCC A2 emissions scenario. The red line shows predicted temperature change for the current level of solar activity, the blue line shows predicted temperature change for solar activity at the much lower level of the Maunder Minimum, and the black line shows observed temperatures through 2010.
