Revision as of 20:00, 24 June 2019

Changed to redirect

Just some rationale (in addition to the edit comment): Some media organisations (such as the Guardian) are using the term as a synonym to "Climate change", so I think a redirect there is more appropriate. (Plus this articles content is a halfway house between disambiguation, redirect, and duplication of the "Climate emergency decleration" page - never a good state!)

I agree but note this is another place where Wikipedia's use of "climate change" and "global warming" requires explanation.

CNN Pence

So CNN's Tapper is asking Pence about climate emergency. But is what people are calling a climate emergency, is it a threat? Do you think it is a threat, man-made climate emergency is a threat? https://edition.cnn.com/2019/06/24/politics/mike-pence-climate-crisis/index.html prokaryotes (talk) 19:39, 24 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Merge

Because climate emergency is not always mentioned in relation to a declaration I rather merge climate declaration into this article. In fact the broader term climate emergency is much more common. For more context see this BBC article(What is a climate emergency?), prokaryotes (talk) 19:49, 24 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
