Difference between Global Warming and Climate Change

Global Warming 

Mainly because of human activity, greenhouse gases in the atmosphere are increasing. The extra heat trapped by these gases leads to global warming.

Climate Change

Global warming puts pressure on the world's climate which then leads to climate change.

  • weather is what we experience daily
  • climate is the weather over a certain period in a region or the whole planet.
