3656 - CLIMATE CHANGE - do humans affect it?

  -  3656  -  CLIMATE  CHANGE  - do humans affect it?  Depending on the earth's position to the sun at any given time, climate conditions are going to vary dramatically, and even create drastic abnormalities that defy everything that humans thought they knew about how the earth worked.

---------------------  3656  -  CLIMATE  CHANGE  -  do humans affect it?

-  The massive change in distance that occurs between the earth and the sun, depending on whether it is at perihelion or aphelion.   Even the maximum eccentricity of the Earth's orbit would be impossible to show at the resolution on this page. Even so, at the current eccentricity  the Earth is 5 million kilometers closer to Sun at perihelion than at aphelion.

-

-  The biggest factor affecting Earth's climate is the SUN.  As for earth's obliquity, or its change in axial tilt,  show the degree to which the earth can shift on both its axis and its rotational orientation. At the higher tilts, earth's seasons become much more extreme, while at lower tilts they become much more mild.

-

-   A similar situation exists for earth's rotational axis, which depending on which hemisphere is pointed at the sun during perihelion, can greatly impact the seasonal extremes between the two hemispheres.

-

-  Based on these different variables, renowned scientist, Milankovitch was able to come up with a comprehensive mathematical model that is able to compute surface temperatures on earth going way back in time, and the conclusion is simple: Earth's climate has always been changing, and is in a  constant state of flux due to no fault of our own as human beings

-

-  When Milankovitch first put forward his model, it went ignored for nearly half a century. Then, in 1976, a study published in the journal Science confirmed that Milankovitch's theory is, in fact, accurate, and that it does correspond to various periods of climate change that have occurred throughout history.

-

-  In 1982 the National Research Council of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences adopted Milankovitch's theory as truth, declaring that orbital variations remain the most thoroughly examined mechanism of climatic change on time scales of tens of thousands of years and are by far the clearest case of a direct effect of changing insolation on the lower atmosphere of Earth.

-

-   If we had to sum the whole thing up in one simple phrase, it would be this: 

-

-  The biggest factor influencing weather and climate patterns on earth is the Sun.

-

-  Depending on the earth's position to the sun at any given time, climate conditions are going to vary dramatically, and even create drastic abnormalities that defy everything that humans thought they knew about how the earth worked.  

-

-  But rather than embrace this truth, today's climate "scientists," joined by leftist politicians and a complicit mainstream media, insist that not using reusable grocery bags at the supermarket and not having an electric vehicle are destroying the planet so quickly that we absolutely must implement global climate taxes as the solution. 

-

-  The climate change debate is not about science.   It is an effort to impose political and economic controls on the population by the elite.

-

-  And politics is another way to divide the population against itself, with some who believe in man- made global warming and some who don't, divide and conquer.

-

-  No question the climate is changing.  It is supposed to.  The January 2022 global surface temperature was 1.60°F  above the 20th-century average of 53.6°F  and ranked as the sixth-warmest January in the 143-year record. 

-

-  January 2022 also marked the 46th consecutive January and the 445th consecutive month with temperatures, at least nominally, above the 20th-century average.

-

-  Temperatures were much above average across most of South America, resulting in its second-warmest January on record. Only January of 2016 was warmer. Much of the Atlantic, northern Indian, and western Pacific oceans, as well as parts of southern North America, western and southern Africa, and southern Asia had much-above-average temperatures.

-

-   Meanwhile, cooler-than-average temperatures were observed across parts of northern North America, northern Africa, India, and the Pacific Ocean.  

-

-  Asia, as a whole, had its fourth-warmest January on record, while Oceania’s January temperature departure tied with 2001 as the seventh highest on record. Despite North America and Africa’s above-average January temperature, they had their coldest January since 2009 and 2015, respectively.

-

-  The Northern Hemisphere snow cover extent during January was slightly above the 1981-2010 average at 18.26 million square miles. This was the largest January snow cover extent since 2017. North America had near-average January snow cover extent, while Eurasia had slightly above-average January snow cover extent.

-

-  Six tropical storms formed globally in January, which is near normal.  And, normal is hard to find these days.  If I were near normal I would not be writing this stuff.
