Terminology
The term "global warming" refers to the warming in recent decades and its projected continuation, and implies a human influence.[11][12] The United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) uses the term "climate change" for human-caused change, and "climate variability" for other changes.[13]. The term "climate change" recognizes that rising temperatures are not the only effect.[14] The term "anthropogenic global warming" (AGW) is sometimes used when focusing on human-induced changes.
