In most people's thinking climate is a vague idea, without much power to evoke reaction. As long as it performs reliably it can be ignored. Yet the 1970s showed that national economies and world trade can be shaken by extreme climates, and that our defences against such rude episodes are flimsy. The problem is to articulate the nature of climate's impact on society. And that implies an understanding of the nature of climate itself. Climate relates to many sectors of the human economy, and to many aspects of the world's natural ecosystems. A broad concept of climate is needed for such an exercise as the World Climate Programme. This chapter seeks that broad concept, and tries to set out the facts about climate itself as an environmental factor.
