Soil, flora and fauna in the nature closely interact with climate; they also influence on formation of the human style of life. People have got used and adapted to the concrete climate. They took into consideration the climate peculiarities to make their life more comfortable. For example when designing and constructing towns it is necessary to know prevalent wind direction: it allows locating industry enterprises in such a way that they would not pollute the air of residential blocks with smoke and soot. The climate influences on the human health and life conditions. Human organism loses warmth owing to radiation, heat conduction, convection and evaporation of humidity from surface of the body. If these loses are too high in cold weather or too low in hot weather a man feels a discomfort and can fall ill. The change of weather causes stress, worsening of appetite, disturbance of biorhythm and decrease of immunity. Temperature and light conditions and sufficiency of humidity which are necessary for development and spread of biological diversity depended on the climate. Our survival depends on our ability to live in harmony with nature. Everybody must understand that all of us are the part of the united natural system and everybody can contribute to the solution of such ecological problem as the climate change. The training seminar ‘Climate Change’ gave an opportunity to learn about the causes and consequences of climate change and about the measures on adaptation to the climate change.
