>Even years before that, international institutions had paved the way for “climate change” to eventually become the prevalent term. The U.N. Framework Convention on Climate Change was negotiated in 1992, and the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change was established in 1988.

I mean...the scientific consensus was using that term prior to the 2002.

Global warming just became the popular choice after congressional testimonials and Al Gore's inconvenient truth came out in 2006.

It wasnt until more recently that we when back to climate change because we are now seeing the effects of it outside of just increasing temperatures. Before it was mostly rising temperatures but we werent seeing historic records being broken every year. Now its europe was on fire, china has a massive increasing desert and Mississippi reaching historics lows in water depth and africa having multi year droughts...etc.

???

Climate change is a more inclusive term to capture all the effects of a warming planet.

Places that were wet before will dry up(some will become more wet), extreme storms will be more frequent, massive swings in temperatures will be frequent, jet streams will change, the gulf stream will change....a warmer global is just the tip of the iceburg of what will happen to the overall and individual climates of the world.

Edit: For example, an idiot will point out a warmer global doesn't directly explain britian will be seeing more snow and colder winters. That's explained by the gulf stream moving due to fresh water dumping into the ocean. Climate change > Global warming

Its an exhausting show to run. John Oliver keeps it once a week and takes breaks to limit his creative burnout.

Its rare to see "Daily" comedy shows. If they do exists, its even more rare to see it be continuously "fresh" and not become stale with time.

Jon Stewart and his writers did a practically impossible task (And likely why so many of his writers became successful on their own afterwards).

The core strategy of comedy central is completely unknown at this point.

They cut all their original live action content back in 2020 to focus on Adult Animation. The new adult animation shows aren't gaining any traction.

So...the future of Comedy Center is completely unknown. They might not even bother getting a concrete host because they might just get rid of the channel completely...
