As a natural pedant, I have to point out that that’s not quite true. Decades ago, people talked about global warming (due to the greenhouse effect) because we feared that it would lead to major climate change.
Then, it led to major climate change. Now we talk about that. Global warming is still a thing, it’s just the effects have upstaged it as a topic.
Thats why it’s been called climate change for decades now and not global warming.

I agree, but the tweet in the OP said warming
Global warming and climate change are the same thing, not understanding that is not an excuse for ignorant arguing
Is warming not a change in climate?
