Climate change refers to the way the world's climate changes over time. In the past the climate has changed, but that change has been very slow, taking many thousands of years. When we talk about climate change now, we usually mean the very sudden warming of the earth, particularly over the last one hundred years. This is caused by the enhanced greenhouse effect, from our burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas), and deforestation.
Burning of coal, oil and natural gas in industry, transport and the generation of electricity releases carbon dioxide (CO2), a greenhouse gas, which traps heat in the atmosphere.
Deforestation destroys the great forests of the world that take carbon dioxide (CO2) out of the air and store the carbon in the wood and leaves.
A:
It is the change in atmospheric conditions along with changes in the Hydrological (water) cycle,temperature, sea level, rainfall and all changes in the weather for a long interval of time.
Climate change can be define as a change in any climate patterns, such as temperature, precipitation, etc. For example, from the late 20th century on, climate patterns have changed and are attributed to increased levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
