SEA ClimateChange Training,
Thailand, 2014 Climate
The climate of an area is its localweather conditions such astemperature, precipitation (rainfall,snow, etc.), humidity, sunshine,
cloudiness, wind, and air pressure. Itis the weather averaged overa long period of time (normally30 years), taking account of theaverage conditions as well as the
variability of these conditions . Somepeople say "climate is what youexpect, and weather is what youget".

Naturally occurring and human-made gases that trap infraredradiation as it is reflected fromthe earths surface, trapping heat
and keeping the earth warm. Thesix main GHGs whose emissionsare human-caused are carbondioxide (CO2), methane (CH4),nitrous oxide (N2O),hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs),perfluorocarbons (PFCs), andsulphur hexafluoride (SF6).

SEA ClimateChange Training,
Thailand, 2014 Clim ate ch an g eA significant change in measures ofclimate (such as temperature,precipitation, or wind) lasting for anextended period (decades or longer).Climate change can result from both
natural changes (such as changes in thesuns intensity or oceanic circulation)and human activities. Today we tend touse the term for changes in the climatethat are induced by human activities thatalter the gaseous composition of the
atmosphere due to the release ofgreenhouse gases, in particularCO 2(such as fossil fuel burning ordeforestation).

SEA ClimateChange Training,

Water vapour is the most prolific greenhouse gas,but its levels are reasonably constant. Methane
and ozone are much more potent greenhousegases than carbon dioxide, but theyre present insmaller quantities. Burning of fossil fuels carbon, oil, petroleum has seen carbon dioxide
levels in the atmosphere increase from 280 partsper million 200 years ago to 430 parts per milliontoday.
Answer : Carbon Dioxide

Can the terms global warming andclimate change be used interchangeably?
Yes, they refer to processes closely related,and people understand what youre referringto when you use either of them
No, these are completely separate processesand should not be confused

"Adjustment in natural or humansystems in response to actual orexpected climatic stimuli or theireffects, which moderate harm orexploit beneficial opportunities." The
definition recognizes that humans canadjust to past ("actual") climatechange and its impacts, or prepare forprojected future ("expected") climatechange and its impacts. Adaptationcan include changes in behaviour,technology, institutions, policies, andother aspects of human systems.(IPCC Definition)

Actions that reduce the sources ofgreenhouse gases, orenhance carbon sinks . Examplesinclude using fossil fuels more
efficiently for industrial processes orelectricity generation, switching fromoil to natural gas as a heating fuel,improving the insulation of buildings,and expanding forests and othersinks to remove greater amounts ofcarbon dioxide from the atmosphere.(UNFCCC )
