Climate affects nearly every aspect of our lives, from our food sources to our transport infrastructure, from what clothes we wear, to where we go on holiday. It has a huge effect on our livelihoods, our health, and our future.Climate is the long-term pattern of weather conditions in any particular place.It’s important that we understand how the climate is changing, so that we can prepare for the future. Studying the climate helps us predict how much rain the next winter might bring, or how far sea levels will rise DUE to warmer sea temperatures. We can also see which REGIONS are most likely to be affected by extreme weather, or which wildlife species are threatened by climate change. Climate is also affected by our atmosphere, a layer of gases that surrounds the earth. These gases act like a blanket wrapped around the earth, trapping the sun’s heat within our atmosphere.Some gases TRAP more heat than others. The gases that trap the most heat are called greenhouse gases because they allow heat to reach the earth, but do not let it escape – similar to how a greenhouse works. The most common greenhouse gases are carbon dioxide, methane and ozone, water vapour, nitrous oxides and fluorinated gases.The more greenhouse gases there are, the warmer the earth’s climate BECOMES. This means that human activities which release greenhouse gases, like burning fossil fuels, lead to climate change.thank you for your like and comment ☺️
