temperature in the UK? 38.7 °C in Cambridge University Botanic Garden on 25 July 2019. 5. What is climate change? Climate change is a large-scale, long-term shift in Earth’s weather patterns, leading to increasing temperatures, rising sea levels and changes in nature. www.metoffice.gov.uk | 4 © Crown
