And re-reading that 2014 article and comments reminds me that the io9 content tap has been turned off. I appreciate Katherine and Maddie, etc., but it feels like they are holding positions on the wall of an abandoned fort.

I missed the /s. I apologize. Sorry.

Well said. My rebuttal is that climate change as a label is too benign. it panders to the ignorant and the self-centered. Warming says what’s really going on, right now.
