When researchers say climate change, what are they really talking about? Are we referring to all climate shifts throughout Earth’s history? Or just man-made change since the industrial era? Modern papers almost always imply human-caused warming—even when discussing events like the AD 536–540 climate catastrophe, long before fossil fuels. Words matter. Definitions shape narratives. And this one? It’s been quietly redefined. | The Randall Carlson
