This can’t be true, the Earth was a green paradise devoid of hardship until Ford invented the automobile.

Libs changed the terminology from global warming to climate change for a couple of reasons. Temperature data was not showing the global warming they were predicting; but likely more important by calling it climate change it is a trap of words. Is there climate change? Of course, anyone that argues that the climate does not change looks like an idiot. The issue is whether or not climate change is caused or made worse by man, that is where they want the water muddied. Conservatives are slow to pick up on the changes in wording- used to denying global warming is man-made now they are trapped into saying climate change is not real. I have heard several candidates say that recently. Just the other morning I watched a Republican candidate asked if climate change was real- and he rapidly replied that climate change is a hoax.

Many issues have been muddied by liberals changing the language. Illegal aliens>illegal immigrants>immigrants...done on purpose to create confusion between illegal immigration and legal immigration. Makes it easier for libs to convince people that those against illegal immigration are just racist. Then they can say- we are a nation of immigrants, we have always welcomed immigration...blah, blah, blah.

Liberals change wording for a reason, we all need to be on our toes.

Thanks mojito for the topic and ping, and thanks a fool in paradise for the ping. Also one of *those* topics, as well as straight-up catastrophism.

Oh, for heaven’s sake. Is the New York Times really that stupid, or are they just pretending?

"If it wasn’t for global warming — Chicago would still be under a mile of ice."

The oceans must have been pretty low then. If not, what happened to all the melted ice water?
