What is the difference between environment and climate?

The determination of the size of the population can be due to factors such as the habitat, the climate and the environment. That is why I wondered: what exactly is the difference between environment and climate?

Answer

Environment (from French “(in) the middle”, Dutch “environment”) is the totality of the environmental factors, such as air and water quality, plants and animals, and also temperature, precipitation, wind.

Climate is something like “the weather”, but on a large scale, both in space (a large area, eg Western Europe) and time (eg a period of one year or several years).

If you look at it that way, the climate is part of the environment.
