All around us, our planet is changing. Some changes are sudden and dramatic; others are almost imperceptible and take years. Our Earth in Action looks at these changes - from climate change to erosion and human activity - in detail.

Weather describes the many ways in which our planet is shaped - and its inhabitants affected - by the weather, from hurricanes to snow and ice.
