GET TO KNOW MORE ABOUT THE CLIMATE CHANGE Climate is the average weather in a given area over a longer period of time. A description of a climate includes information on, e.g. the average temperature in different seasons, rainfall, and sunshine |
There have been previous periods of climate change, but the current changes are distinctly more rapid and not due to natural causes. Instead, they are caused by the emission of greenhouse gases, mostly carbon dioxide (CO 2) and methane. Burning fossil fuels for energy use creates most of these emissions.
