What is climate change?
(Book - Regular Print)

Includes bibliographical references (page 46) and index.

"Climate refers to the average weather pattern of a particular area. Weather is the state of the atmosphere of a particular region. The factors that contribute to the weather of a given place are rainfall, temperature, air pressure, and humidity. Weather changes every day. Climate change, however, is a much more complex phenomenon, with great consequences on ecology. The rise in global temperatures over the decades has proved that climate is indeed changing. Much of this change is attributed to various human activities. Adapting to climate change is not always easy, but there is no alternative than to adjust. To prevent further damage, people need to adopt a more responsible attitude toward nature and restrict the activities that harm it in the longer run."--,Provided by publisher.
