I am unaware of ANYBODY with a gram of credibility who doubts that climate change is taking place.

OF COURSE IT'S CHANGING.. Has been for TENS OF THOUSANDS OF YEARS..

Just in the past 1500 years we've traversed the range from the Medieval Warm period, with temperatures comparable to today, to the Maunder Minimum of the 1600's, which resulted in a mini-ice age and a few years without a summer.

Hell, we have climate change of a sort 4 times a year.

The point is that all through the 90's until just the past 4 years, it's all been about "Global Warming"..

But suddenly, as we see a lack of any further warming over the past 12 years, despite rising CO2 levels, it's NOW about "Climate Change", even though the climate has NEVER been unchanging.

With regard to climatology, the only constant IS change.

And I can tell that scientists have discovered that parts of the Great Lakes are STILL RECOVERING from the last ice age. There are parts of Ontario that are rising about a 1" a year as the earth's crust decompresses from when when it used to have a mile of ice sitting upon it for THOUSANDS OF YEARS.

Historically speaking, the MAJORITY OF THE PAST 200 thousand YEARS HAS CONSISTED OF ICE AGES. The periods of warming have been relatively short:
