Don't be rude it was the
right-wing and Denialist Bush regime that coined the term "Climate change". A political attitudes expert and PR machine decided the term 'global warming' was too alarming, and so tried to domesticate the science by introducing climate change everywhere they could. So don't you dare turn around and play silly semantic games with a term
your side invented, because the egg is on
your face OK?

If you're going to comment in a thread all about 2 video's, at least have the decency to watch them.
Also, Climatologists
know that the climate changes 'frequently'. They've mapped out the last 800 000 years of glacial to interglacial periods and correlated it with the Co2 in ice core samples and the mathematics of Milancovitch cycles. It all
works. They
know this. The planet has 'wobbles', Milancovitch cycles, that sometimes accumulate in just the right way to reduce the incoming sunlight and bring on an 'ice age'. (Well, glacial period really. We are currently in an 'Ice Age' because there is ice on the earth somewhere! But who wants to play semantic games? I'll use the common term 'Ice Age' if you'll use the common, pre-Bush term 'Global Warming'. OK?)
So anyway, the point is the Earth has been drifting into Ice Ages and out of them for a long time, and climatologists know all this. They also know about the earth's funky super-greenhouse periods in the dinosaur period, way back when the sun was 2% cooler! With a 2% hotter sun, do you really want to play games and roll the dice with our climate?
Basically,
'Cold' = bad.
'Warm' = good.
'Hot' = bad.
Get it?
