climate

Climate refers to the long-term patterns and average conditions of weather in a particular region over many years. It includes factors like temperature, rainfall, humidity, wind, and seasons. Unlike daily weather, which can change quickly, climate describes the typical weather experienced over decades, helping us understand what to expect in a given area. It influences ecosystems, agriculture, and human activities. Changes in climate over time are driven by natural processes and human activities, especially the emission of greenhouse gases, which have been causing global temperatures to rise and altering weather patterns worldwide.
