"This year, he has written a paper where he asserts (my emphasis):

-Four alternative predictions of near-future climate, based on empirical models drawn from the palaeoclimatological record, are described. Three agree that the likely trend the 21st century is one of cooling, and the fourth (based on Milankovitch predictions) predicts cooling over the longer term. In keeping with the generality of these predictions, averaged global surface temperature has been falling for the last 6 years.

That is, of course, only true if you include the single exceptionally warm 1998 El Nino year. "

Of course I imagine [since he is a GW proponent] he doesn't think we are going to be entering a long period of cooling, but he does point out a downward trend and since no one seems to be claiming a drop in CO2 emission during this period, that is more confirmation that CO2 is not a significant factor.
