Climate and Climate Change pdf par John P Rafferty

As a fixture in recent headlines, the EarthOCOs climate has commanded much attention. While environmental and atmospheric conditions in large part determine the climate of a region, the impact of human activity has increasingly become a significant factor as well. This is especially true concerning significant climate changes, commonly known as global warming.
