After having had "global warming" rammed down our throats over the last few years ( and it being blamed for just about everything imaginable) the BBC Weather website tells us that 2008 is expected to be cooler than the past couple of years.
Global warming? No, this is "climate change" (I thought that had been happening since the dawn of time, its only now they`ve learnt how to use it as a means of raising taxation).
Climate change is obviously a refined term of reference, as it can be used for too hot, cold,windy,calm, wet, dry etc much more easily than global warming. This lets the politically bankrupt raise more money and keeps the tree-hugging community happy at the same time. Whoever thought of the phrase is probably very rich by now or should be, I`m just trying to think of what will come next.
Cynical? Moi?
