The Hiatus as an American Stop
But warming is not accelerating
I think you mean that the warming acceleration is not accelerating, TE, unless you’re willing to state that you can stop a car with this kind of “not accelerating” trend.
Incidentally, we call that kind of driving technique an American stop around here. You bring the acceleration to a hiatus, and then you accelerate again. The car never really stops moving.
Calling something that never stops moving a “hiatus” is kind of strange, isn’t it?
