Now that Europe is facing perhaps its biggest energy crisis of all time, I haven't heard anything from Greta. Europe has been pretending to transition to alternative green energy sources that either don't yet exist, or don't exist in sufficient quantities to be useful. But in reality of course Europe simply became addicted to Russia, as some guy named Trump in 2018 pointed out while the Gemans laughed heartily:

People in Germany are now panicking and cutting down wood to use wherever they can get it. People in Poland are waiting in long queues for coal. Britain is facing financial and energy chaos. Europe is reverting to the Dark Ages. So what is Greta's advice? How does she solve this real world problem? She is Europe's energy policy czar. Why the silence? Guess she went back to playing with her dolls.

Greta's message was "listen to what the science says about global warming." Coincidentally, here's a recent headline from BBC:
[b]Climate change: Europe's warm summer shatters records[/b] [quote]This summer was the hottest on record in Europe, according to data from EU satellite monitoring.
A series of extreme heatwaves and a long running drought saw June, July and August shatter the previous high mark for temperature.[/quote]
I expect Greta is STILL saying "listen to what the science says about global warming," because there are still a lot of people in denial about global warming and the problem hasn't gone away.

Since you encourage everyone to "look it up" I thought you might take your own advice here. Unfortunately, looking up the difference between climate & weather is beyond your meager skills, so I will explain.
Short answer: at a given location & time of day, climate is a 30 year moving average of weather measurements. A bit more complexity: some folks may use 25 years. Some folks may statistically sample the day to make the measurement independent of the time of day.
For a region, climate is a 30 year moving average of samples that cover the region in a statistical sense. Since you looked up "standard deviation of the mean" like I told you to do elsewhere, you now understand how a 30 year average of daily midday measurements over a region would greatly reduce the statistical noise of daily and seasonal variations.
@ElwoodBlues And you can't tell us what it is. Too funny. There is no global warming beyond known norms of times gone by. Idiots are trying to destroy mankind because they don't understand nature or science.
@sunsporter1649 Please don't confuse the poor little autistic kid with facts. He gets upset and starts spewing out of all his many orifices. its really not pretty when that happens.
@ElwoodBlues That is a bit of a self accusation since the fact is you can't tell the difference between weather and climate and you think the climate is changing the result of human activity. You have no idea how nature works. BTW what is the difference between a bee and a fish. I hear that you don't know. Is that true?
