It is no longer global warming because it isn't.

It is climate change because it does.

Men are never so likely to settle a question rightly as when they discuss it freely.

— Thomas B. Macaulay (1800-1859), Essay on Southey's Colloquies

All of us could take a lesson from the weather. It pays no attention to criticism.

A Matter of Scale: more climatic apocalypse

A Matter of Scale is a book recommended by James Hansen.

Here is a quote from it:

"The world is heating, and change is happening faster than expected. The signs are there for everyone to see: a polar ice cap that opens up enough to allow ice-free navigation for the first time since humans colonised North America"

We are only on page 1 of chapter 1 and already the poor research is evident. No need to read further. My interest has waned. Are you aware of the error??

Here it is:  a polar ice cap that opens up enough to allow ice-free navigation for the first time since humans colonised North America

The NorthWest Passage has been open for navigation many times in the past. Many of these references have been picked from Steve Goddard's old site at real-science.com.
