3.       FACTORS OF PRUDUCTION
4.       CHANGES FOR THE ENVIROMENT
5.       LINEAR AND CIRCULAR ECONOMY.

1 - CLIMATES


The climate is the state of the atmosphere in a specific area in a secific time. 

There are two features:

 - Temperature: we measure with the termometre. Indicates hot or cold. 

 - Precipitation: We measure with the rain gauge. It is the amount of water (rain, hail, snow).

There are three factors:

 - Distance from the sun: Hot zone, temperate zone, cold zone.
 
 - Altitude: In high altitudes is colder.

 - Proximity to the sea: Coastal areas have mild temperatures.
