It is now known that there is strong interactions between
climate change and the electrical processes of the earth's
atmosphere (i.e. the troposphere, extending from the earth's
surface to a height of 14 km) and beyond (notably, the
ionosphere, the layer that stretches from 90 to 400 km above
the earth) [1] and [2]. It is customary to link climate change to
global warming, that is, the increase in temperature of the
earth and its atmosphere. The effects of increasing temperature
are also well known, including the 7 m global sea level rise
when the Greenland ice sheet melts, increase in droughts in
Southeast Asia due to increase in El Nino events and the
dieback of Amazon forest resulting in massive extinctions and
decreased rainfall [3]. In Malaysia, for instance
