I beg to differ. This is not "shocking news for climate change advocates." This is exactly WHY they changed the name from "global cooling" (in the 1970s) to "global warming" to "climate change."
They first called it "global cooling." Then the numbers didn't work out, as the data was showing a warming trend.
Then, they switched it to "global warming." Once again, the numbers weren't working out.
So, they finally got smart and changed the name to "climate change." "Change" will fit either scenario, thus they will never be wrong, since temperatures will continue to fluctuate between being cold or hot.
"Climate change" allows them to keep the narrative going ad infinItum.
