Global warming is what we are doing to the AVERAGE temperature of the
planet. Climate change is what will result. It is true that the political
elements pushed the "climate change" label to confuse people. A lot of the
denialist propaganda now comes from, or is sponsored by, just two
organisations - the Heartlands Institute and the Cato Institute. Now that
Big Oil and Big Coal no longer officially disagree with climate change/AGW
most of the clever spin and bullshit is down to these so called think tanks.
Technically, the natural trend is that we are headed towards an ice age but
we won't get there for another few thousand years. Despite this the planet
is measurably warming due to our activities. This should ring even louder
alarm bells.
