What is the difference between global warming and climate change?
“Weather refers to atmospheric conditions that occur locally over short periods of time—from minutes to hours or days. Familiar examples include rain, snow, clouds, winds, floods or thunderstorms.
Climate, on the other hand, refers to the long-term regional or even global average of temperature, humidity and rainfall patterns over seasons, years or decades.”

I will go with the experts rather than a poster on here.

My point was that the climate activists basically hijacked the term “Climate Change” and use it interchangeably with Global Warming. Another new favorite is “Climate Crisis”. The climate activists want to blame any change in weather on humans and those buzzwords give them more leeway...
