Global warming is over. It is a tired and trite phrase and presents a poor picture of reality.
It is time for a new paradigm: global climate change. The greenhouse effect, which traps heat in Earth’s atmosphere warming the land and the oceans, is only one aspect of global climate change.
Heat-powered high and low pressure systems such as the “arctic vortex” that pulled freezing air into Fayette County recently are another.
Rising ocean levels from thermal expansion and melting ice are another.
