I agree with Brock/John. I have since used only "global weirding" because that is exactly what we are encountering, weird weather and climate patterns, hotter, colder, drier, wetter, windier... But the overall trend is a warming one from what I undestand.
It is also nice because this phrase offers a slight sense of humor to a big and daunting reality we are facing. Sometimes things seem so overwhelming one can only laugh as a response.
Anyway, the talk looks interesting.
Glad to see so many great events coming through this town!

That was the term the legendary Brock Dolman from OAEC used - I like it because it captures the fact that there are so many unpredictable facets to the situation- the whole of nature being far beyond our ability to completely understand.
Better yet is Climate Disruption.

Global Warming is not the proper term any more. According to many scientists, it is going to be hot in some places and cold in others. The new expression is GLOBAL CLIMATE CHANGE. I suggest you use this instead.
Best regards.
