So the politicians did what politicians do and they hired focus groups to find words that capture the imagination of the populous. “Climate Change” sounded better, and provided greater latitude. Warming is bad, cooling is climate change too. Wet is change, dry is change.

Change in general is opposed by human nature.

Presto, new word, more people buy in.

It’s the same failed science. It is the same small set of “scientists” who control what we know about this failed science, but we have a new code word that is scary and therefore we have to do something…. Because the failed science proves it.
Your absolutely right!!!!

If that happens, we won't be eating anything. What do you think cattle eat, bucky?

I was talking with my sons about climate change today and told them that many of the same people who have been warmers all this time were the very people who were screaming about the coming ice age causing all that starvation by now.
Name one of them.

There's so many Global Warming threads, how do ya know which one to post?
At any rate, whether it's really that, Global Warming or Climate Change, something really is indeed happening. For how long, who knows? I'm understanding that perhaps it is bordering on climate change - that it is more like a phase. Comes and goes. How long those periods last, is anyone's guess. Mine more so than a Physical Scientist or a Geologist type.
