If you look at the last two reports. C02 levels have increased dramatically (at a greater rate then anyone would have projected) yet the IPCC's own projections for temperature have decreased dramatically.

There is are only two possible methods of explaining this.

1) The IPCC uses questionable science so the previous temperature projections were wrong. Which leads us to question why we should listen to them now.

2) That there is no link between C02 and GW

This is just flat out wrong. It could also mean that they got updated data or a new model or any number of things. The thing to point out is that in both methods the prediction is still rising temperatures on roughly the same scale.

Yes, There's a huge difference between showing a strong correlation between CO2 and GW and making accurate predictions of temperature rises.
