Question: Can you explain what effect the tilt of the Earth has on its weather and climate?
Explain what effect the tilt of the Earth has on its weather and climate. What would happen if there was no tilt at all?

Answer:

The tilt causes seasons.

no tilt = season.
Part of the world will die and part of the world will flourish.

Maybe water or rain will not be be distributed over the earth causing floods on one end and drout on the other

anyway if you search on Google you will probably find a more professional answer

Question: How is malaria risk and climate connected?
Any suggestions on how malaria risk and climate connected? How does climate affect malaria?

Answer by dsayless
I assume that the bacteria or virus responsible for causing malaria can only survive in a hot climate as I’ve never heard of it existing in a cold place, so I guess that;s your answer!

Our project for our Finals is the Documentary film we’ll be making upon our community service. our topic’s about climate change. i wanted to make a short film on climate change to awaken people about the global problem we’re now facing wherein man gradually suffers.

Thanks for the help in advance

Bees do better in warmer weather. Longer growing seasons shift temperate zones north and benefit nearly all plant and wildlife.

In a cooling climate the opposite is true.

Thank you everyone for your help!

It would not be a bad idea to buy a black frame, but I would get a light coloured seat and handlebar tape.

First step..as a community we should stop using plastic products..then should stop using all petroleum products..then start growing more plants..internationally first must stop drilling the earth for oil..then must save all existing forest..these actions sure can reduce the pollution significantly..

Question: How confident are you in the accuracy of climate models?
Do you think they’re generally accurate? Worthless? On what do you base this conclusion?

Here is one scientist’s take:

Many of the comments to previous blogs have stated that models are “just” a set of assumptions, and that the processes in the Earth’s climate are so complex that they defy our attempts to model them with any rigor. There are assumptions that are made when models are built, but those assumptions are not simply pulled out of a bag of magic tricks. In fact, arbitrary, unjustified assumptions are generally repelled from the modeling community because, first and foremost, the models need to describe some set of observations and the evolution of those observations, i.e. prediction. Most components of models are, just like my original modeling efforts, a representation of mathematical equations that rigorously describe the motion of the atmosphere. The idea that I and my colleagues would work from some potpourri of unjustified assumptions is, in fact, a bit offensive.

I dunno relate finding new energy sources as opposed to oil/coal as part of it maybe.
I like the idea of finding new energy, but when all the blabber on is “oh noes the world is gonna die oh noes” it gets kinda repetative and boring….
I gotta say I’m taking environmental science now and it all pretty much sounds the same “yay conserve” and “boo earth is dying”
