It's both, of course. Global warming refers specifically to the rising temperatures, climate change refers to the suite of other effects that go along with that, like those shifts in rainfall patterns previously mentioned. Associated with the temperature change, but not, strictly speaking, the same thing.

They try to predict those too, but, eh, I'm dubious how accurate any such prediction can be - it's trying to model a phenomenon a hell of a lot more complex than the temperature, which ultimately is a simpler system of energy out vs energy in.

And yet they model solutions that produce MORE CO2? And somehow heightened profits? Amazing, if they are 'wrong', they still improve the environment, and the only difference is that they get all the credit and money. All while we are lulled into the false belief that our sacrifices, made a difference.

What if it's a big hoax and we create a better world for nothing?

Better for who I ask?
