Eh, “Global Warming” is fine. Texas isn’t the globe. I’ve come to believe the whole “If we explain it differently, maybe it’ll convince them” approach is largely a waste of energy.
Excuse me, but as a resident of the planet Texas, you both are wrong in assuming we have the ability to comprehend anything we didn’t hear come from our own assholes.
Climate change is a GOP/Oil industry invented term to sound less scary than global warming. It doesn’t mean no snow ever again, or every square inch of planet is warmer than last year.
I don’t object to that term. With “climate change” we get the opinion “well climate has always been changing so drill baby drill won’t make it stop changing”.
You won’t convince people if you use the term “warming” and then present them snow in Texas. Climate change is the right expression.

”Climate Crisis“ is a term that has been established in Germany. Pretty fitting and doesn’t mess with people’s expectations (I hope).

The Guardian now uses “climate crisis”.
