Scientists Agree Human-induced Global Warming Is Real, Survey Say

"Induced" is a pretty heavy word to use and I can't concur with it. The facts don't merit it's use, nor is it representative of the truth. Influenced, or aggravated is more correct and reflects the reality of natural warming.

My view is more along the following:

But Tsonis also said that neither he nor Swanson think their study undermines arguments for global warming caused by human activity.

“We are not saying there is not warming due to human activity,” Tsonis told CNSNews.com. ‘We are saying that there are natural shifts on top of that. But, for now, it looks like it is going to cool.”

Tsonis said that currently the natural cycles, which occur in part because of the way oceans interact, are stronger than the influence human activity has on the environment. But when the earth begins to warm again in several decades, he said, the globe could be in trouble because natural warming and man-made warming will occur simultaneously
