Many scientists believe that in the near  future our planet will face changing climate. They also believe that this change will have a great effect on how we live and even if we will survive. Why does climate play such a role for our future?

In order to study the possibility of global climate change, background information is necessary.  In this section of or site we will present tools needed to understand global climate and its change. First, we will address climate and climate zones. Next, we will explain the role of the atmosphere and what atmosphere is made of. In addition, we will describe some important weather factors. These factors have effect on the weather we deal with every day. Finally, we will explain how weather and climate affect us, the people and the future of our planet.
