What Is Climate Change?

First of all, Climate is the usual weather of a place. Different places can have different climates. You might live in Saudi Arabia where its very hot, while your cousin might live in Poland where it is very cold. There's also Earth's climate. Earth's climate is what you get when you combine all the climates around the world together.

Now what is climate change? Climate change is a change in the usual weather found in a place. For example: In your house, it always rains. Then all of a sudden, rain falls only a few times. Climate change is also a change in Earth's climate. This could be a change in Earth's usual temperature. Weather can change in just a few hours. Climate takes hundreds or even millions of years to change.

Now you might be thinking, "Well Climate Change isn't that serious after all! Why should i worry? Hakuna Matata!" Well, heres why you need to worry. Scientists think that Earth's temperature will keep going up for the next 100 years. This would cause more snow and ice to melt. Oceans would rise higher. Some places would get hotter. Other places might have colder winters with more snow. Some places might get more rain. Other places might get less rain. Some places might have stronger hurricanes. Climate change is very serious, and we have the responsibility to learn the causes of it, and how to stop it in our own small way.
