*"AGW" is a reasonably common way to refer to this phenomenia, and it is not nearly as misleading as either "climate change" or "global warming." Both of the later terms imply that the Earth has never warmed any reason other than industrial emissions. I suggest that the main article on this subject be located at [[anthropogenic global warming]], [[Climate change]] and [[global warming]] can be redirects or brief terminology articles. [http://wattsupwiththat.com/2014/01/01/ipcc-silently-slashes-its-global-warming-predictions-in-the-ar5-final-draft/ The latest IPCC report] projects dramatically less warming than earlier reports did. The climate change apocalypse has apparently been averted, and the world saved. Yet the drive-by media can't be bothered to report it. [[User:PeterKa|PeterKa]] 03:04, 15 February 2014 (EST)

:::Please explain to me using peer reviewed references how the terms climate change and global warming ''imply that the Earth has never warmed any reason other than industrial emissions.'' Please read the IPCC report from the main source instead of filtering it through a fringe source like Anthony Watts. You’ll find he is misrepresenting the UN panel. I hope you didn’t spend too much time on your Google research. Please reread my last edit to the article and then realize my sources were from the fifties and seventies. Someone made a political decision? References? Good ones this time? It’s rather sad the opening paragraphs are allowed to remain, this article makes conservative Americans look very silly. And I for one don’t like it. --[[User:NormaN|NormaN]] 10:37, 15 February 2014 (EST)
