More Arctic Sea Ice Might Chill You in Next 10 Years: NCAR - International Business Times
"The computer simulations suggest that we could see a 10-year period of stable ice or even an increase in the extent of the ice," said NCAR scientist Jennifer Kay, the lead author of the research.

"Once you initiate the process you accelerate the whole thing," LiveScience quoted Josefino Comiso, a senior scientist at the cyrospheric sciences branch of NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, as saying. "If the area becomes warmer that means that the ice doesn't have as much time to grow. And in the process it's generally thinner every year than the previous year, and if it's thinner then it's more vulnerable to melt in the following summer."

What I see here is hedging in case the Sun goes into a solar minimum...
In addition to volcanos and sulfates, I bet we will here and read more about models etc. that are pointing to cooling (none of which will include the Sun).
