The change of name of the phenomenon is, unfortunately, great fuel for cynics.

Because it gradually became clear that whereas globally the planet was warming, because of weather effects (caused by said warming, such as changes in the gulf stream) in some areas the weather would get colder, or simply less predictable/more extreme. Like Europe. And, it must be said, Northern France, where we are freezing les knackers off and pipes have burst.

As I understand it, it's simply a more accurate way of describing the overall effect. The planet is warming, but that doesn't mean everything will get warmer.

Which, to the common-garden Mailite, is base deceit.

They can't hold one logical thought in their head, never mind two that may correlate with each other.

Hmmm. Charlie Manson thinks there's something in it, so climate change MUST be bollocks.

Charlie Manson is 76, so roughly fits the Daily Mail reader age demographic. But he's well EVIL, see,

Next: Dennis Nielsen fucking LOVES the additional vote system.

Don't forget the impeccable Manson family values.

Bit of a fail neglecting to tell us what his house is worth though.
