What exactly is climate change? Put simply, climate change is a change in average weather patterns over a long period of time. However, people often confuse natural variations in weather with climate change. In order to understand the distinction, you have to understand the difference between weather and climate. Weather refers to atmospheric conditions like temperature, precipitation, and wind at a specific time and place, whereas climate refers to long-term trends of weather.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Look outside. Is it sunny? Is it raining? Is it snowing? Is it windy? Whatever is happening right now is weather. Weather varies from day to day. Some days it might be sunny, other days in might be cloudy and rainy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A region’s climate is determined by weather patterns -- patterns in precipitation, temperature, humidity and wind -- usually averaged over a 30-year span. Climate gives us an idea of what the weather in a particular region might be. For example, if it’s winter in Miami, you don’t expect it to snow. That’s because Miami has a tropical climate with warm temperatures year-round and lots of rain. Likewise, if it's winter in Maine, you don't expect it to be 95 degrees Fahrenheit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To determine changes in climate, you have to look at long-term trends and averages of past weather data. For example, past weather data from California's Central Valley shows that this area is experiencing warmer temperatures and less fog compared to what would be normal variations in weather. This suggests a changing climate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Climate change is happening now and is already impacting the planet. With climate change, we are seeing shifts in regional climate. For example, spring temperatures in the Midwest arrive about two weeks earlier compared to the 1950s. Parts of the Northeast are experiencing an increase in heavy rain and snow events, and parts of the Southeast are having more days with temperatures above 95 degrees. These are all examples of changes to regional climates.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Discussion Questions\u003c/h2>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>What does the term \"weather\" mean?\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>What is climate?\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>What does the term \"climate change\" mean?\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Describe the climate where you live.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>This post is part of our \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/quest/collections/clue-into-climate/\">Clue into Climate\u003c/a> collection of resources.\u003c/p>\n\u003chr>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>This explainer is featured in our \u003cstrong>Clue into Climate\u003c/strong> e-book series.

What exactly is climate change? Put simply, climate change is a change in average weather patterns over a long period of time. However, people often confuse natural variations in weather with climate change. In order to understand the distinction, you have to understand the difference between weather and climate. Weather refers to atmospheric conditions like temperature, precipitation, and wind at a specific time and place, whereas climate refers to long-term trends of weather.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Look outside. Is it sunny? Is it raining? Is it snowing? Is it windy? Whatever is happening right now is weather. Weather varies from day to day. Some days it might be sunny, other days in might be cloudy and rainy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A region’s climate is determined by weather patterns -- patterns in precipitation, temperature, humidity and wind -- usually averaged over a 30-year span. Climate gives us an idea of what the weather in a particular region might be. For example, if it’s winter in Miami, you don’t expect it to snow. That’s because Miami has a tropical climate with warm temperatures year-round and lots of rain. Likewise, if it's winter in Maine, you don't expect it to be 95 degrees Fahrenheit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To determine changes in climate, you have to look at long-term trends and averages of past weather data. For example, past weather data from California's Central Valley shows that this area is experiencing warmer temperatures and less fog compared to what would be normal variations in weather. This suggests a changing climate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Climate change is happening now and is already impacting the planet.

Parts of the Northeast are experiencing an increase in heavy rain and snow events, and parts of the Southeast are having more days with temperatures above 95 degrees.

the globe have noticed that over the last 40 years Earth, as a whole, has been warming. This phenomenon, known as global warming, is affecting regional climates differently. For example, some regions may experience warmer summers, while other regions may see winters with heavier snowstorms.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A rise in Earth's average temperature isn't always immediately apparent. For example, some places still get snowy winters which might appear to contradict the idea of global warming. (Check out \u003ca href=\"http://www.buzzfeed.com/kevintang/an-illustrated-guide-to-why-this-winter-has-been-so-brutal\">Andy Warner's comic\u003c/a> to learn how global warming can actually lead to heavier snowfall). So, how do scientists know Earth is warming?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Scientists don't just look at one set of data; in fact, they analyze a whole body of evidence. One of the clearest indicators of a warming world is change in the Arctic. There, slight increases in temperatures can be the difference between ice and liquid water. Increasing temperatures are leading to declines in glaciers and sea ice.

change is primarily caused by the accumulation of greenhouse gases, or heat-trapping gases, in the atmosphere. Greenhouse gases are certain molecules in the air that have the ability to trap heat in the Earth's atmosphere. Some greenhouse gases, like carbon dioxide (CO\u003csub>2\u003c/sub>) and methane (CH\u003csub>4\u003c/sub>), occur naturally and play an important role in Earth's climate. If they didn't exist, the planet would be a much colder place. However, some human activities, such as mining and burning fossil fuels (like coal, oil and natural gas) for energy and transportation, emit molecules of CO\u003csub>2\u003c/sub> and other greenhouse gases. These activities cause greenhouse gases to accumulate in the air, and as these molecules build up in the atmosphere they cause an overall warming of the planet. Some greenhouse gases are entirely man-made and are products of certain industrial processes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ciframe title=\"Sources of Greenhouse Gases\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/qxWNbHHcPRQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen>\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"color: #444444\">\u003cem>Play the video to see sources of the main greenhouse gases.\u003c/em>\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Not all greenhouse gases are created equal in terms of contributing to climate change. Their impact varies according to how long they remain in the atmosphere and how efficient they are at trapping heat. For example, methane, the main component in natural gas, remains in the atmosphere for a shorter time than CO\u003csub>2\u003c/sub>, but is far more efficient at trapping heat, making it a more potent greenhouse gas. Nitrous oxide is less abundant than methane, but even more efficient at trapping heat, and it stays in the atmosphere for a long time. Understanding the impacts and sources of the main greenhouse gases can help inform strategies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For more information, check out the \u003ca href=\"http://www.epa.gov/climatechange/ghgemissions/\">EPA's resources on greenhouse gases.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Discussion Questions\u003c/h2>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>What does the term \"greenhouse gas\" mean?\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>What role do greenhouse gases play in climate change?\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>What is the most prevalent greenhouse gas?\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>What are some of the major sources of greenhouse gases?\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Which greenhouse gases do you think are of greatest concern in terms of global warming?

Greenhouse gases are certain molecules in the air that have the ability to trap heat in the Earth's atmosphere. Some greenhouse gases, like carbon dioxide (CO\u003csub>2\u003c/sub>) and methane (CH\u003csub>4\u003c/sub>), occur naturally and play an important role in Earth's climate. If they didn't exist, the planet would be a much colder place. However, some human activities, such as mining and burning fossil fuels (like coal, oil and natural gas) for energy and transportation, emit molecules of CO\u003csub>2\u003c/sub> and other greenhouse gases. These activities cause greenhouse gases to accumulate in the air, and as these molecules build up in the atmosphere they cause an overall warming of the planet. Some greenhouse gases are entirely man-made and are products of certain industrial processes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ciframe title=\"Sources of Greenhouse Gases\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/qxWNbHHcPRQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen>\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"color: #444444\">\u003cem>Play the video to see sources of the main greenhouse gases.\u003c/em>\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Not all greenhouse gases are created equal in terms of contributing to climate change. Their impact varies according to how long they remain in the atmosphere and how efficient they are at trapping heat. For example, methane, the main component in natural gas, remains in the atmosphere for a shorter time than CO\u003csub>2\u003c/sub>, but is far more efficient at trapping heat, making it a more potent greenhouse gas. Nitrous oxide is less abundant than methane, but even more efficient at trapping heat, and it stays in the atmosphere for a long time. Understanding the impacts and sources of the main greenhouse gases can help inform strategies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For more information, check out the \u003ca href=\"http://www.epa.gov/climatechange/ghgemissions/\">EPA's resources on greenhouse gases.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Discussion Questions\u003c/h2>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>What does the term \"greenhouse gas\" mean?\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>What role do greenhouse gases play in climate change?\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>What is the most prevalent greenhouse gas?\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>What are some of the major sources of greenhouse gases?\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Which greenhouse gases do you think are of greatest concern in terms of global warming?

In the carbon cycle, natural processes like human respiration and volcanic activity release CO\u003csub>2\u003c/sub>. Plants absorb CO\u003csub>2\u003c/sub> during photosynthesis and the ocean absorbs it when CO\u003csub>2\u003c/sub> from the air mixes with seawater. However, human activities, such as the burning of fossil fuels, like coal, oil and natural gas, also release CO\u003csub>2\u003c/sub> into the atmosphere.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since the start of the Industrial Revolution in the late 1700s, humans have been emitting more and more CO\u003csub>2\u003c/sub>. At the same time, forests all over the world are being cleared for agriculture and development. Deforestation not only leaves fewer plants to absorb the increasing amounts of CO\u003csub>2\u003c/sub>, but also adds CO\u003csub>2\u003c/sub> to the air when trees are burned or left to decay.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Until about the mid-20\u003csup>th\u003c/sup> century many scientists thought that the oceans would easily absorb the excess CO\u003csub>2\u003c/sub> emitted from fossil fuel burning, so there wasn't a great concern over the possible effects of increased emissions in the atmosphere. However, there wasn't a lot of data on the actual concentrations of CO\u003csub>2\u003c/sub> in the atmosphere. In 1958, Charles Keeling of the Scripps Institute of Oceanography began measuring CO\u003csub>2\u003c/sub> levels in the air at a weather station in Hawaii and at the South Pole. After a few years, Keeling observed a steady increase in atmospheric CO\u003csub>2\u003c/sub>, an indication that fossil-fuel emissions were building up in the atmosphere. Due to funding cuts, Keeling had to stop measurements at the South Pole, but the weather station in Hawaii continues to measure concentrations of CO\u003csub>2\u003c/sub>. The data from these measurements are plotted on a graph known as the Keeling Curve.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Keeling's findings were so profound that they prompted the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) to start monitoring CO\u003csub>2\u003c/sub> concentrations in other locations around the world. And, in July 2014, NASA launched the Orbiting Carbon Observatory, a satellite designed to gather the most precise data ever for tracking the carbon cycle on Earth.

In the carbon cycle, natural processes like human respiration and volcanic activity release CO\u003csub>2\u003c/sub>. Plants absorb CO\u003csub>2\u003c/sub> during photosynthesis and the ocean absorbs it when CO\u003csub>2\u003c/sub> from the air mixes with seawater. However, human activities, such as the burning of fossil fuels, like coal, oil and natural gas, also release CO\u003csub>2\u003c/sub> into the atmosphere.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since the start of the Industrial Revolution in the late 1700s, humans have been emitting more and more CO\u003csub>2\u003c/sub>. At the same time, forests all over the world are being cleared for agriculture and development. Deforestation not only leaves fewer plants to absorb the increasing amounts of CO\u003csub>2\u003c/sub>, but also adds CO\u003csub>2\u003c/sub> to the air when trees are burned or left to decay.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Until about the mid-20\u003csup>th\u003c/sup> century many scientists thought that the oceans would easily absorb the excess CO\u003csub>2\u003c/sub> emitted from fossil fuel burning, so there wasn't a great concern over the possible effects of increased emissions in the atmosphere. However, there wasn't a lot of data on the actual concentrations of CO\u003csub>2\u003c/sub> in the atmosphere. In 1958, Charles Keeling of the Scripps Institute of Oceanography began measuring CO\u003csub>2\u003c/sub> levels in the air at a weather station in Hawaii and at the South Pole. After a few years, Keeling observed a steady increase in atmospheric CO\u003csub>2\u003c/sub>, an indication that fossil-fuel emissions were building up in the atmosphere. Due to funding cuts, Keeling had to stop measurements at the South Pole, but the weather station in Hawaii continues to measure concentrations of CO\u003csub>2\u003c/sub>. The data from these measurements are plotted on a graph known as the Keeling Curve.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Keeling's findings were so profound that they prompted the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) to start monitoring CO\u003csub>2\u003c/sub> concentrations in other locations around the world. And, in July 2014, NASA launched the Orbiting Carbon Observatory, a satellite designed to gather the most precise data ever for tracking the carbon cycle on Earth. All of this data indicates that CO\u003csub>2\u003c/sub> is building up in Earth's atmosphere.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Discussion Questions\u003c/h2>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>What does the Keeling Curve show about the concentrations of CO\u003csub>2\u003c/sub> in the Earth's atmosphere?\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Why does the concentration of CO\u003csub>2\u003c/sub> go up and down throughout the year?\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Why do you think Keeling chose Mauna Loa and Antarctica to measure atmospheric CO\u003csub>2\u003c/sub>?\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Why does the concentration of CO\u003csub>2\u003c/sub> increase over time?\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>What does an increase in CO\u003csub>2\u003c/sub> levels in the atmosphere mean for global warming?\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>This video explainer is part of our \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/quest/collections/clue-into-climate/\">Clue into Climate\u003c/a> collection of resources.\u003c/p>\n\u003chr>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>An interactive version of this explainer is featured in our \u003cstrong>Clue into Climate\u003c/strong> e-book series.

Molecules that have the ability to trap heat in the atmosphere are called greenhouse gases.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\">\u003ciframe class=\"youtube-player\" type=\"text/html\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/EB_S_9BKcmo?version=3&rel=1&fs=1&autohide=2&showsearch=0&showinfo=1&iv_load_policy=1&wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"color: #444444\"> \u003c/span>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Click on the video above to explore how greenhouse gases trap heat in the atmosphere.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Major greenhouse gases, like CO\u003csub>2\u003c/sub> and methane (CH\u003csub>4\u003c/sub>), occur naturally and play an important role in Earth's climate.
