About

Climate change refers to the permanent replacement of well-established weather patterns with new ones (which may initially initially be described as "unusual" or "strange" until the new pattern becomes apparent).

Climate change is also one of the major effects of global warming, and is often used as a synonym for it in order to disarm the fallacious but frequently-used claim that cold weather disproves global warming. Climate change due to global warming includes unusually hot and unusually cold weather in different areas, as well as unusually wet or dry weather.
