CLIMATE

Climate scientists have measured the temperature and rainfall on every part of the Earth over many years. They look at the changes and predict the future with the information. The first map shows the temperature over 30 years. In most parts of the world, the temperature has increased by a few degrees and scientists think it will increase in the future.

The second map shows rainfall on the Earth over 30 years. The amount of rain is very different from region to region. Rainfall has increased in some countries and scientists think it will increase in the future. But rainfall has also decreased in other parts and, in these regions, it won't increase. It will decrease.

In conclusion, the changes in climate will continue in the next century. The Earth will feel hotter and rainfall will be higher for some places, but lower for others.
