Well, nearly two years after your posted that, I can assure you that although there is nothing sexual about it and it has slipped from the headlines - largely due to wars - climate change (to use the more formal and accurate name) has not gone away.
Instead it's moved into a period of transition and policy-forming, rather than lurid hyperbole and bitter arguments.
It is still a major item of news but not so much at attention-grabbing headline level. It's moved to the more analytical current-affairs slots. At least here in the UK. I can't speak for other countries so perhaps it is mentioned far less in the USA.
I've not seen or heard the phrase "Arctic Surge" but imagine that is one effect, or part of, the entire change.

At the moment they can't decide if they want to argue about covid-19, some war the weather, or whatever they're trying to scare people with today.

The planet Earth has been changing for billions of years,,and will keep changing nothing no one can do about it,,just another pay check for some people,,🌋
If that is what you think you wouldn't understand the nuance anyway.

Maybe watch better news?
Climate is not the weather.
2021 was the 6th hottest year on record, I believe they've said.
It's been plenty warm over the whole course of last year. Don't let a short memory trick you into thinking this week's weather represents larger climate patterns.

@jackrabbit10 Here in the PNW the winters have been getting progressively warmer, just as the summers have steadily been getting hotter. Climate change can't really be denied any longer. At this point the argument seems to be whether the changes are naturally occurring cycles, or the direct results of man's activity.
My own belief is that it's better to err on the side of caution since we only get one earth.

@jackrabbit10 how cold it is right now has no bearing on climate. Climate is a pattern of weather. Variations in weather happen all the time. A month of freakish cold does not mean the climate has gotten colder.
If the winters become consistently colder year over year and begin driving average seasonal temperatures for the season down, then you can talk about the climate.
