"Climate Change" Replaces "Global Warming"

From the AP:

The chairman of a key House committee says he wants to pass a climate change bill before Memorial Day.

California Rep. Henry Waxman said Thursday the environment and U.S. economy depend on congressional action to confront the threat of climate change. Waxman, chairman of the Energy and Commerce Committee, spoke as he opened Congress' first hearing on climate legislation.

This confirms what I have suspected for a long time. It's subtle, but "climate change" is being used increasingly in place of "global warming" as the favorite alarmist term of radical environmentalists. That way their butts are covered no matter which direction the mercury moves.
