* ''Global warming'' refers to the increased ''average'' temperature around the world. 1 or 2 degrees increase doesn't seem like much, but it also comes with more ''fluctuations'' of temperature - more extreme hot days, more extreme cold days, and more storms. The whole shebang is referred to as ''climate change''. | * ''Global warming'' refers to the increased ''average'' temperature around the world. 1 or 2 degrees increase doesn't seem like much, but it also comes with more ''fluctuations'' of temperature - more extreme hot days, more extreme cold days, and more storms.
