Green House Effect
ClimateClimate Change (Global Warming): is a  process by which the Earths' atmosphere is changing over a period of time. Some of the causes are; to the build up of green house gases, the Earths orbit, variations in solar activity, plate tectonics, volcanoes, deforestation and lastly human activity.
Climate  is
the prevailing weather conditions (winds, temperature, air pressure, humidity, rain, sunshine, and cloudiness) of a region or the earth over a long period of time i.e. decades, centuries and longer periods of time. Weather on the other hand is the condition of a region or Earth over a short period of time such as days or weeks.
Green House Effect: When the Earth's  atmosphere traps the sun's radiation. Usually the atmosphere reflects much of the sun's energy but the green house effect reverses the process and the atmosphere traps the energy, as a result it traps much of the gases water vapors, carbon dioxide and methane.
