When it comes to the issue of climate change, many people instantly think about global warming, the recent and average raise in temperature of the Earth’s surface. The media discusses melting ice caps or rising temperatures and debates over whether or not it’s humanity’s fault. While global warming is an important worry that should be dealt with, it is also important to realize that climate change comprises much more than just rising global temperatures. According to the ENSAA, climate change is a long-term change in weather patterns, either in average weather conditions or in the distribution of extreme weather events, in areas like temperature, wind patterns, or rainfall (ENSAA). As a result, even weather “extremes” – that is, weather events varying significantly from average patterns (BBC) – and “normal” weather – temperatures and the number natural events that are a part of an average range – change periodically as climate changes.
