Climate change sounds a bit more benign than global warming. However, the two things are not the same. Climate change is actually the result of global warming.
Strictly speaking there is no other name for global warming."The whole earth heating up" might be another name.Global warming is causing climate change, so many people think they are both the same, so they say:"Climate change is another name for global warming", but they are not really the same.
Global warming is a scientifically documented phenomenon caused by human activities releasing greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. While there may be interests within wealthy governments, the global scientific community widely agrees that climate change is a pressing issue with severe consequences for the planet. It is essential to distinguish between the science of climate change and individual motivations.
Global Warming refers to the rise in temperature. The earth is warming, and this global warming is causing climate change. People use the term Climate Change to mean all the changes that are predicted, caused by the world's rise in temperature. The rise in average temperature will cause many varied climate changes, perhaps including reduced temperature in some areas, glaciers melting, sea levels rising, increased number of natural disasters, more severe weather events, and longer droughts.
The term "global warming" began being used in the 1950s to describe the increase in Earth's average surface temperature due to human activities. "Climate change" emerged as a broader term in the 1970s to encompass not only warming but also other impacts like rising sea levels, extreme weather events, and shifts in ecosystems.
Air pollution is bad for the earth, it kills the animals and the people too. And we have anough of that in wars, but global climate change is when the wheather is differing, and changes to different temperatures. Thankyouh

People believe that man is causing global warming and climate change by burning fossil fuels and cutting down the forests of the world.Other people believe that global warming is a natural event and man is not causing it.Most believe that it is partially a natural issue that man is having some unknown affect on as well. This is where most scientists fall.Other people believe that global warming is not happening at all.
Yes; see the IGPCC, or the United Nations Inter Governmental Panel on Climate Change.
It is still called Global Warming, but many people are now talking about Climate Change.Global warming is the way the world is warming (through burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) and deforestation). But global warming is CAUSING Climate change.
Neither is bad. They are natural cycles of warm-cool-warm-cool that have occurred on Earth for a billion years or more. Example: from 1948 to 1971, there was an awful, dangerous cooling cycle, and people thought they HAD to DO something to stop it. That is now laughable, as we are in a not-dangerous warming cycle.
People start burning fossil fuel. This releases greenhouse gases that build up in the atmosphere. This traps more heat and causes global warming. The warming adds extra energy into the atmosphere causing climate change.

People use the term Climate Change to mean all the changes that are predicted, caused by the world's rise in temperature. Using the term climate change means we can talk about the practical things that scientists are predicting. Global Warming refers to the rise in temperature. The earth is warming, and this global warming is causing climate change. The rise in average temperature will cause many varied climate changes, perhaps including reduced temperature in some areas, glaciers melting, sea levels rising, increased number of natural disasters, more severe weather events, and longer droughts.
Yes, most people accept that global warming is happening. They understand that the ten hottest years on record have all happened since 1995. They are beginning to experience more extreme weather events that are the result of climate change.
It suggests that those who caused global warming will be the ones who suffer because of the warming. This is only partly true, as the richest countries have been most responsible for global warming, but it is the people of poorer countries that will probably suffer the most.

There are people who don't believe global warming is happening.There are people who believe it is happening but don't believe that humans are causing it.There are people who believe all the climate scientists who believe it is happening and that we are causing it.
