The Climate Dictionary is a tool designed to help ordinary people understand climate change in simple and practical language.

Many climate discussions use scientific terms that can be difficult to understand. The climate dictionary breaks down these complex ideas into clear, everyday explanations that anyone can relate to, whether they are a student, farmer, community leader, business owner or policy maker.

For Namibia, this is especially important because climate change affects daily life through challenges such as droughts, water scarcity, unpredictable rainfall, rising temperatures, and impacts on agriculture and livelihoods. 

The publication explains a range of climate-related terms and phenomena in a way that is easy to understand, making climate knowledge accessible to everyone, regardless of their level of education or scientific background.
