Earlier this week, I met with a public opinion expert who critiqued the way many scientists and environmental groups speak about, er, \u003Cstrike\u003Eclimate change\u003C\/strike\u003E, no \u003Cstrike\u003Eglobal warming\u003C\/strike\u003E, maybe \u003Cstrike\u003Ethe climate crisis\u003C\/strike\u003E, \u003Cstrike\u003Eglobal heating\u003C\/strike\u003E, \u003Cstrike\u003Ecountdown to a meltdown\u003C\/strike\u003E, \u003Cstrike\u003Espringtime for CO2\u003C\/strike\u003E, \u003Cstrike\u003Ewaterworld\u003C\/strike\u003E, \u003Cstrike\u003Ethe greatest threat facing humanity\u003C\/strike\u003E, well, you know what I mean.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\nThe expert raised example after example of scientists, NGOs, government, etc. shooting themselves in the foot while talking about, um, the impact of human activity on the climate system. Take the oldest argument of them all: global warming or climate change?\u003Cbr \/\u003E\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\n\u003Ca href=\"http:\/\/1.bp.blogspot.com\/_7NrAt8xGd0E\/S7dbsFhHA7I\/AAAAAAAABy0\/LVbZgrBeuFk\/s1600\/viz.png\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;\"\u003E\u003Cimg border=\"0\" height=\"178\" src=\"http:\/\/1.bp.blogspot.com\/_7NrAt8xGd0E\/S7dbsFhHA7I\/AAAAAAAABy0\/LVbZgrBeuFk\/s400\/viz.png\" width=\"400\" \/\u003E\u003C\/a\u003EAt right is the Google trends graph of average worldwide searches for global warming (in blue) and climate change (in red). The top graph is standard Google searches, the bottom graph is news references.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\nThe graph shows that \"global warming\" is far more common a search term. The average person is more likely to use and recognize the label \"global warming\", as evidenced by the search volume. But\u0026nbsp; \"climate change\" appears more often in the news. Why? In no small part because all the writers, and especially all the people quoted in the articles, say \"climate change\". \u003Cbr \/\u003E\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\nNow, we can argue the semantics of the different terms. Generally, scientists reject the term \"global warming\", because it is not used in the literature and supposedly \"less accurate\" because the entire planet is not warming at the same rate. I've used that argument many times, and now wonder if it may be a mistake to do so (as has been pointed out to me, \"global\" simply implies the whole planet is warming, which is true!).\u003Cbr \/\u003E\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\nRights and wrongs of the different labels aside, the fact is that there is a disconnect here. We use a term that means less to people. And it puts scientists and others communicating the real scientific consensus at a disadvantage. Do a Google search for \"global warming\" and \"climate change\". With \"global warming\", the term the public is more likely to use, a \"skeptical\" site comes up second [note: search is done from Canada, others may find different results]."},"link":[{"rel":"replies","type":"application/atom+xml","href":"http:\/\/simondonner.blogspot.com\/feeds\/1815212645153172661\/comments\/default","title":"Post Comments"},{"rel":"replies","type":"text/html","href":"http:\/\/www.blogger.com\/comment.g?blogID=25163458\u0026postID=1815212645153172661\u0026isPopup=true","title":"6 Comments"},{"rel":"edit","type":"application/atom+xml","href":"http:\/\/www.blogger.com\/feeds\/25163458\/posts\/default\/1815212645153172661"},{"rel":"self","type":"application/atom+xml","href":"http:\/\/www.blogger.com\/feeds\/25163458\/posts\/default\/1815212645153172661"},{"rel":"alternate","type":"text/html","href":"http:\/\/simondonner.blogspot.com\/2010\/04\/global-warming-trumps-climate-change.html","title":"Global warming trumps climate change?"}],"author":[{"name":{"$t":"Unknown"},"email":{"$t":"noreply@blogger.com"},"gd$image":{"rel":"http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail","width":"16","height":"16","src":"https:\/\/img1.blogblog.com\/img\/b16-rounded.gif"}}],"media$thumbnail":{"xmlns$media":"http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/","url":"http:\/\/1.bp.blogspot.com\/_7NrAt8xGd0E\/S7dbsFhHA7I\/AAAAAAAABy0\/LVbZgrBeuFk\/s72-c\/viz.png","height":"72","width":"72"},"thr$total":{"$t":"6"}}]}});
