What does sudden weather change have to do with human beings?

The relationship between sudden change of weather and human beings is simple and complicated.

The simplicity lies in: individuals must change their clothes in real time with the change of temperature, and "take an umbrella when traveling (frequently/sunny)" to cope with "emergencies".

When it comes to human society, it is complicated: at different stages of development, human society has different abilities and means to cope with sudden changes in weather. The higher the degree of modernization of society, the lower the necessary ability of individuals to deal with emergencies, and the higher the emergency protection of individuals to society. This is not only a low requirement for weather forecast now, but also reflected in energy exchange.

The weather changes quickly, even in small places. It is also very important for people to arrange their life and work in a large area or around the world.

More importantly, there is a certain interactive relationship between human long-term activities and weather changes. Humans can not only influence the weather unconsciously, but also intervene in the weather immediately (such as artificial rainfall). A relatively stable climate is beneficial for human beings to learn to arrange production and life in advance in different climatic environments. The changeable weather requires people to know the weather and predict the weather trend. If the weather changes dramatically, it will lead to disastrous consequences (such as mountain torrents and mudslides in high places and floods in low places)

Therefore, the weather is closely related to human activities.
