Some are now using the term Global Climate Change.
The warming bit's just the tip of the iceburg(I slay me). Think hurricane season. Seizmic activity could increase too along with literally dozens of other concerns not the least of which is an increase in harmful ultraviolet. The list goes on.

The balance you are thinking of occurs on a Global scale, Sure that pendulum swings, but it takes centuries(normaly) to move. We're pushing our along too vigorously and moderation is called for. I think they're trying to change the name to avoid backward thinking.
