It's a known fact that the planet has been steadily warming since the Little Ice Age. A lot of things show this, not just temperature records. This involves a lot of ups and downs, including a heat wave in the 1930s.
The relatively new idea that the environment is going to be destroyed by human CO2 emissions (especially capitalist ones) is another matter altogether.
There is an enormous amount of government power and loot to be had with the AGW scenario. On the other hand, if it turns out that climate change is mostly natural, all that power and loot go away.
The AP wrote this story precisely because the real world is not cooperating with the hysterical AGW predictions of the past few years, and the polls are showing a rising skepticism. There will be more of this sort of thing.
