Climate change on Jupiter?
I’d call it more a change in the weather.

A while back the Great Red Spot changed colour, becoming less red.
So far as I know, still no-one can explain the colour of the Great Red Spot, apart from saying that the colour may be due to the presence of organic molecules. Need to get some proper spectral data before it disappears.
Whatever happened to “ Red Spot Jr.” and the third red spot? See Link from 2008
