Ian Marshall about to go down a rabbit hole on 22:54 - Nov 21 by Guthrum
A more contentious question than some might think.
Really? Isn't he just talking about a change in language to better communicate a message? It happens all the time in the public representation of scientific concepts. Global warming becomes climate change when we realised that 'warming' wasn't an adequate enough descriptor. And that has now changed to climate emergency, as climate change wasn't seen as representing the importance of the issue. The underlying concepts haven't changed though. Like with UFOs; the concept of there being unexplained sightings hasn't changed.

I look forward to being schooled/educated!
It's partly about US versus British terminology, but also about precision of language.
A UFO doesn't have to be anomalous, only unidentified. This has implications for how the event is interpreted, whether there is an assumption of non-human origin. A UAP doesn't have to be flying (tho according to some sources the A originally stood for Airborne).
There's a lot of debate in UFOlogist circles* about this, which is probably what prompted the tweet.

Surely it is a UAP, until there is sufficient evidence to classify it as a UFO.
Hmmm, which forum could make a 10 pager out of this?

The 'A' used to stand for 'Aerial' but it seems they have evolved it into 'Anomalous' which seems to make the whole letter pointless and the phrase a tautology.
It might as well just be AP. I suspect they changed this as an awful lot of the reports are actually about things under the sea.

SADIQ KHAN AND THE MET PLANNED THE EVENTS OF REMEMBERANCE DAY TO HAVE SUELLA BRAVERMAN SACKED ?
Sadiq Khan is in my opinon an active member of ISIS, he is connected by family, by background, by social circles and by CHOICE.
Khan is working to destroy London & the UK… Suella Braverman was getting too much traction, was becoming too popular ..the MET are in my opinion a domestic arm of ISIS now answering only to Khan.
BRAVERMAN SHONE A LIGHT ON THE TWO TIER POLICING, ON KHANS LEADERSHIP SUPPORTING ISLAMIC EXTREMISM THEN BOOM
Braverman shone a light on the Mets two tier policing, on Khans Islamic extremist leadership then BOOM ! BRAVERMAN GONE.
Anyone that challenges the far left Islamic extremist agenda is cancelled there is no such thing as Islamaphobia but there is a very real threat from #islamofascism
The WEF want to control the entire world with one goverment they rule over with one religion guess which one they chose ?

He’s got the angry bloke in a pub “game’s gone” routine down to a fine art.
A great player for Town, very much missed in the immediate period he was gone. Did very well at Leicester and was part of a good squad there. Nothing but love for that man, he run his legs off for Ipswich and is often overlooked when we talk about great strikers but he was great, I am just disappointed we didn't get to see much of the Marshall/Mathie partnership in the Premier League.

Fcuking hell. Just wow. He’s a looong way down that rabbit hole isn’t he.
It’s beginning to outweigh that volley against Charlton.

Global warming is the trend for the average temperature of the planet to increase over time. It is clearly demonstrated and scientifically linked to increased emissions of greenhouse gases.
The Greenhouse Effect is the result of those greenhouse gases. There is a natural Greenhouse Effect that leads to the planet being around 40 degrees C above what it would be otherwise (and thus makes water-based life possible).
Climate change is where the usual patterns of weather are altered due to an increase in the Greenhouse Effect caused by the additional greenhouse gases.
Climate emergency is a newer term and I think it is environmental groups that have introduced this for the reasons you give.
As for a UFO, once it lands and is identified, it is simply an object.

It was quietly changed to UAP quite a few years ago, perhaps it was to try and keep it hidden from FOI requests.
Up and mainly down, following Town since 88
