Perhaps if they wanted the public to stop questioning the official state religion of climate change belief, and to accept the common come back that "weather events aren't climate" then perhaps they should stop tacking the words "climate change" onto every news item about a heat wave or flood or whatever weather event they are reporting on... 
And yes, they do report every heat wave or hot day as an example of "what to expect more of in the future"...however, they never attach the same importance and say to "expect more of this" when it's record cold spells...climate change is still irrevocably linked to the older out of fashion term "global warming" by the looks of things. If it's hot, it's climate change...if it's cold, well, that's just a bit of a variation.
And I won't back away from the statement that a lot of climate change proponents seem to project an image that they honestly believe that the Earth is finished with climate changes and is now a stable unchanging system. The way you read news items and articles, it seems that they expect the world to stay within a degree or less of what it is today, and to never change again, giving dire predictions of what will happen if it rises a degree or two over the next century or more. Why is this so? Why not let the public know that the world changes all the time, with or without our help, so they'd better get used to it?
Sea levels rising?
