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:

Answer by SBSP
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:

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!

Question: What’s the best Climate Change Documentary Film Can we make?
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.

I would like to start the story with the creation of God, there’s a clip and narration. but i don’t know what’s next to that. the only idea i have is for the end of the film, where i’ll be showing the footage of our destroyed environment in the present.

help me please.

I also need to do a experiment to find out weather bees are affected by climate change
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.

Question: Choosing an all black frame in a hot climate?
I really like a certain bicycle, but it has an all black frame. Would it be a bad decision to purchase it if I live in a hot climate? 100-110 degrees in the summer.
Thank you everyone for your help!

Answer:

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

Question: When you are asking for facts about the climate of a certain area, what does directional mean?
The blank form has a section titled “Climate” with sub sections on Temperature/Rainfall, Seasonal and Directional?

I don’t understand what they are looking for when they write “directional”

Help?

Answer:

Answer by need a boy
Juast a guess, but maybe the prevailing wind direction.

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”

Question: What is the correlation between human evoution and climate change? ?
I’m supposed to do a report about this. So do any of you know a good source for this kind of subject? I mean can climate change really triggers human evolution because from many sources that I have read, all of them claimed that it all started from africa.
