White House: Global Warming Out, 'Global Climate Disruption' In

Obama Science Advisor Airs New Term: Global Climate Disruption
White House science adviser John Holdren called the term global warming a "dangerous misnomer" and urged adoption of the term "global climate disruption" in its stead to better reflect the complexity of the phenomenon, Fox News reported. Republican pollster Adam Geller was quoted as saying: "They're trying to come up with more politically palatable ways to sell some of this stuff," in the face of waning public interest in legislation to regulate emissions.
