What's the difference between global warming and climate change?

Our planet's surface temperature has been rising for the past century-and-a-half, with the most significant rise happening from the 1970s to the present. The increase is caused by heat-trapping greenhouse gases, which are released when we burn fossil fuels such as coal.
