Show transcript
The weather describes outside conditions over a few weeks and the climate describes conditions over many years.
Earth’s climate is gradually changing. The climate is getting warmer more quickly now than a hundred years ago.
Changes in the climate can affect how much water, nutrients and air are in soil and how well plants can grow.
Too much rain (flooding) or not enough rain can affect how well crops grow.
If soil is too wet or dry this can affect how well animals help mix soil and break down organic matter to add nutrients.
