H2. Climate Change is Naturally Occurring Because Humans are a Part of Nature

I heard about this book on NPR:

... if we know the world is warming and there’s a 10 percent chance this might eventually lead to a catastrophe beyond anything we could imagine, why aren’t we doing more about climate change right now?

First, "climate change" is not synonymous with "global warming."

When the glaciers "advanced" through northwest Ohio twice, that was global cooling. When the glaciers "retreated" both times, that was global warming. Together, that was climate change.

Climate change has occurred since this planet has had an atmosphere, which is around four billion years.

The key phrases are either "human-caused global warming" or "human-accelerated global warming."
