Activists have political ambition, the UN is lobbied heavily by NGOs and the UN groups who produce reports are lobbyists themselves.

Always questions people's underlying incetives, this is about MONEY - everything is about money.
Despite what the Al Gore zealots might have to say about the issue, the stance of the scientific community is that the Earth is in a period of warming in regards to geological time.

It's not about what's gonna happen next Thursday or next October... it's about what's going to happen 100 or even 1,000 years from now.

From that perspective, it's about raw science, not ulterior motives.

What people do with that information is their own choice.
