    Climate change is a GOP/Oil industry invented term to sound less scary than global warming. It doesn’t mean no snow ever again, or every square inch of planet is warmer than last year.

      ”Climate Crisis“ is a term that has been established in Germany. Pretty fitting and doesn’t mess with people’s expectations (I hope).

        I don’t object to that term. With “climate change” we get the opinion “well climate has always been changing so drill baby drill won’t make it stop changing”.
