Who has said climate change isn't happening? It happens on a daily basis, monthly basis, seasonal basis..

From your reference -

"Markets are superb at turning what participants believe to be facts into prices. An intriguing new National Bureau of Economic Research study on market expectations about climate change looks at the price trends of Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) weather futures contracts."

So now weather is climate. And all that based on their beliefs. Grin

They own the weather and they're going to charge for it

Fossil fuels on the way out. New source of profit emerges via climate-change

Rich get richer

How long before it becomes official for countries forced to pay for rain? Irony is, those same countries have been forced to pay for chemtrails to destroy their own natural weather cycles

"Climate change is a change in the usual weather found in a place. This could be a change in how much rain a place usually gets in a year. Or it could be a change in a place's usual temperature for a month or season."

https://www.nasa.gov/audience/forstudents/k-4/stories/nasa-knows/what-is-climate...

For kids. That should help you.

BTW - CO2 changes at least diurnally as well as seasonally.

Yes, but that's only because a "kids" webpage is the only place that you could misrepresent the simplistic language.

If you don't know the difference between weather and climate then you are no better than Bobby.

You mean NASA is lying to kids? I mean they could have said climate is the average of 30 tears weather. Grin

Oh dear. Can't read? or can't comprehend?

perhaps you prefer this -

"Dr. Eric Fetzer, a scientist at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, explains it this way: “Weather describes how the atmosphere behaves over weeks or less. Climate is how it behaves over time periods of about a month or longer. So climate refers to seasonal and longer periods, out to centuries and millennia.”

30 years as set by the World Meteorological Organisation. Wink

"Climate describes how the atmosphere behaves over a long period of time (typically defined as at least a 30-year period ), informing us on the “average of weather”, as well as the description of other aspects of weather patterns and meteorological parameters’ distribution, including anomalous, rare and extreme events. "

http://www.wmo.int/pages/prog/wcp/ccl/documents/GUIDELINESONTHEDEFINTIONANDMONIT...

"Such stations need to provide more than 30 years of homogeneous records and should be situated where anthropogenic environmental changes have been and are expected to remain at a minimum. "
