The US did not want to use the term “climate change” at a major Antarctic meeting, instead preferring to focus on “specific” environmental changes.

Conservationists say “editing words” out of a report won’t alter the real impact of climate change.

    Hopefully US will just get offended and stop participating. Until now every time they did it allowed sane countries to move things forward.
