We know that the climate is changing – the evidence that it is warming is overwhelming – and there is now evidence that the weather is changing. A PNAS published study has shown there is a link between the increased emission of sulphides and other particulates from coal fired power stations in China and stronger cyclones and more precipitation in the mid-latitudes of this planet.
The particulates affect, it would seem, weather patterns in China and a weather does not exist in isolation but is created and affected by weather patterns around it. Once you change one weather pattern I one place other places will experience changes from a knock on effect. Hence coal burning power stations in China will change weather in the United States and in Europe.
Having brought about anthropogenic climate change we humans are bringing about anthropogenic weather change. How clever is that?
