description: The global climate is changing, and human activities are now part of the cause. But how does a climate change manifest itself in day-to-day weather? This module approaches the topic by explaining distinctions between weather and climate. Readers will gain an understanding of how the rich natural variety of weather can be systematically influenced by climate, and how external influences – such as human activities – can cause change. Impacts of climate variations and societal strategies for coping with them are also discussed. The module includes topics for discussion and a glossary.
