The Guardian has now pinned down a change in language which you recently might have noticed in other medias, too. Instead of “climate change” the terms “climate emergency or crisis” are used and “global heating” is preferred over “global warming”. This change emphasizes the actual meaning and adds in a long needed judgement. I really appreciate this change - in german "Klimawandel" becomes "Klimakrise" which also sounds great due to its alliteration.
