So what does it mean to you? Not much, apparently...

Warmer not only in front of your door, but on average, worldwide. With a clear
trend that will probably continue. Maybe you would be more concerned if you
could already see the sea from your door, or if you could see the bushfires.

It won't just end (and I havn't heard or seen anyone seriously claiming that),
but it will be very different for many people.

Yeah, but as you say there is not definition of "climate change" for you, there
might be none for "true environmentalism" for me.
