I asked about "climate change". You are talking about "global warming" as if I asked about that.

Are you saying these concepts are equivalent to the aforementioned 99% of scientists and experts?

I'm really not trying to act dense, just figure out what it is people even believe about this topic.

I think "global warming" was rebranded as "climate change" to avoid people saying "well it's getting colder here!" as a rebuttal to its existence

This is splitting hairs. The consequences of human-driven climate change are widely understood to include net warming of the globe.

For example, if there is a new ice age triggered due to human activity, would that would agree with both the global warming and climate change ideas?

If cows were spherical, we could agree that cows were both cow-shaped, and sphere-shaped.

They aren't, though.

Sorry, I have no idea how this is relevant. I thought I was asking a pretty simple question: "What is it that the average person concerned about climate change actually believes is going on?"

It appears this is the wrong place to get an answer to that question.

You're asking questions that could be answered with 10 seconds of Google use and you're being kind of impolite about it. That doesn't seem like a good strategy to engage with someone usefully.

I don't consider asking this question to be impolite: Can you give a quote from what you find after 10 seconds of googling that sums it up?

This is getting off topic, but do you consider asking that to be impolite?
