Everyone has an interest in the weather, and in recent years that interest has intensified. Climates always change over long periods. The weather the world experiences today is different from that of the Little Ice Age of the 17th century and of the Middle Ages, when the climate was warm and England was a major wine producer.

This concern is now driving climatic research.
