Ronsterm, if you have been reading the science of the climate, then it would have been perfectly obvious that the global temperature is not going to go up by 2.4 degree Celsius in the next decade. It's going to take quite a bit longer than that.
The original article was a news release, not a scientific publication. How long after you read the original news item did you discover that climate scientists showed up the error the author made? Or was it only after you read about the error that you became aware of the press article?
I'm guessing, based on your misinterpretation of Prof Jones statement about the warming trend, that you hadn't heard of this article before, but simply want to pretend that public relations companies never make mistakes about the climate. Instead what you've pointed out is that as soon as errors like this are discovered in the media, climate scientists take very prompt action to point them out.
Now that might not be what you intended, but anyone else reading this should be impressed by how quickly climate scientists publicly point out errors made by newspapers (and public relations companies), and how climate scientists don't allow errors like this to go unchallenged.
This is in contrast to many deniers who don't correct or admit the lies and disinformation they spread even when those errors are pointed out to them.
