They changed it to "climate change"after it was proven that the earth wasn't warming at the rate they said.

@FreeSpirit1 They changed it to "climate change" after deniers couldn't understand that it meant GLOBAL climate change and there might be some areas that would get cooler, or wetter, or drier. Climate change better describes the reality.

hi FreeSpirit
I heard the term Global Weirding but that is still due to Global Warming.

@snowbelt The globe is warming,just not as alarmingly so as they said. They also predicted in the 1970's we would have a cooling which was supposed to be happening now.

@FreeSpirit1 No. Those 1970s predictions were in two mainstream articles--one in Time Magazing and one in Newsweek in 1974 and 1975. There was no scientific consensus that there was going to be global cooling.

@snowbelt thats whatbthe libs say now , but the democrats were clamoring about a second ice age to scare old ladies out of their money . Libs always need a disaster that's someone else's fault ... or they will create one .

@TexChik There was no clamoring about a "second" ice age (for your information, there have been many more than two). That's a total fabrication on your part.

@snowbelt sorry Mr. Liberal, it seems you guys always rewrite history when the egg starts sticking to your face . Their words , not mine . Now with climate change you libs are using a manipulated computer model to PREDICT the faux disasters a few percentage points of one degree of temperature increase are " going to do " in 100 years . The premise is so ignorant it's mind boggling . Yet libs say all those billions they gleam from the ignorant will STOP a naturally occurring phenomenon . But nothing has changed ... except Their appetite for more money ... which has increased .

@TexChik Climate change is real. It is occurring now. We may be seeing the future in Houston right now. You can ignore it. You can deny it. You can jump up and down and say NO NO NO. But it will still happen regardless.
