region and time

period.

Climate is not the same as weather, but rather, it is the average pattern of weather for a particular region. Weather describes the short term state of the atmosphere

Global warming refers to an average increase in the earth’s temperature, which in turn causes changes in climate. A warmer earth leads to changes in rainfall patterns, a rise in sea level, and a wide range of impacts on plants, wildlife and humans

YES! The earth has warmed about 1°f over the past 100 years. But why? Well, scientists are not excatly sure. The earth could be getting warmer on its own, but many of the world’s leading climate scientists think that things people do are helping to make the earth warmer

YES! There are a

several little

things you can

do to make a

difference. Try

car pooling. This

will help reduce

the amount of

fossil fuels going

into the

atmosphere.

The ozone layer forms a thin shield high up in the sky. It protects life on earth from the sun’s ultraviolet rays. In the 1980s, sciencists began finding clues that the ozone layer was going away or being depleted

Acid rain is rain, snow or fog that is polluted by acid in the atmosphere and damages the enviroment. Two common air pollutants acidify rain: sulphur dioxid and nitrogen oxide.

Climate is sometimes refered to as “average” weather for a given area.The national weather service uses values such as temperature highs and lows and precipitation measures for the past thirty years to compile “average” weather to be an inadequate definition. To more accurately portray the climatic character of an area, variations, patterns and extremes must also be included. Thus, climate is the sum for all statistical weather information that helps describe a place or region
