Climate Data Exchange

Climate data exchange is like sharing information about what the weather is like in different places.

Imagine you and your friend live in different towns and you both want to know what it's like outside. You can call or message each other and share what the weather is like in your own town. This is kind of like climate data exchange between scientists who study the weather and climate.

Scientists can measure things like the temperature, how much it rained, and how much the wind blew in different places. They use special tools and instruments to make sure the information they collect is accurate. They write down all of this information and share it with other scientists around the world. They use this information to understand how the climate is changing, and what we can do to help make it better.

It's like a big community where scientists work together to share what they know about the weather and climate to help us learn more about our planet.
