why we have seasons

http://www.seattlepi.com/fun/mutts.asp today's strip, June 26 * *:-) Today's news - "The so-called cap-and-trade measure would create a market for trading pollution permits as a way to curb the emissions that many scientists say contribute to climate change. It calls for the U.S. to reduce its greenhouse- gas emissions by 17 percent from 2005 levels by 2020. " http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?p...d=aBS28ILXvszg "Reporting from Washington -- House Democrats grew increasingly confident Thursday that they have the votes to deliver on one of President Obama's highest priorities -- a landmark effort to fight global warming and boost alternatives to fossil fuels. " http://www.latimes.com/news/nationwo...0,864796.story How a small group managed to convince the entire planet that carbon dioxide levels act as some sort of magic global temperature dial to the exclusion of every other input and influence social policy to this frightening level is quite something to behold,even allowing for the politics of pollution and the shift towards energy generation by means other than oil/gas ,the science is so spurious and blinkered that the mass indoctrination is many times greater than any 'climate change'.It was for this reason Orwell said he feared the Nazi more than he feared the bombs - "Nazi theory indeed specifically denies that such a thing as "the truth" exists. […] The implied objective of this line of thought is a nightmare world in which the Leader, or some ruling clique, controls not only the future but the past. If the Leader says of such and such an event, "It never happened"—well, it never happened. If he says that two and two are five—well, two and two are five. This prospect frightens me much more than bombs […]" Orwell The ability to manufacture observations to suit conclusions or frighten people with speculative modelling as opposed to those who interpret observations and arrange these observations to come to the best possible conclusion constitutes a genuine battleground.At the moment,the most powerful argument against the reckless conclusion which is making the news today is that the astronomical seasons and planetary dynamics which determine global climate are not understood. |

Rollie The reason for this mess is that there is no astronomical authority to weigh in with the arguments based on solar and planetary dynamical inputs - http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/...ay_in_rej.html The difference between the astronomical seasons which govern global climate through planetary dynamics and other astronomical inputs as distinct from hemispherical meteoroligical weather patterns which people here call the 'seasons' is the point of departure for distinguishing weather from climate.I would not expect somebody like yourself to know the difference insofar as this type of astronomy based on planetary dynamics and its terrestrial effects is not for everyone. If somebody asks you what causes the seasons,explain to them that the day and night cycle is due to daily rotation while the seasonal cycle is due to the orbital motion,pass the information on to NOAA if you must as they give 'axial tilt' a magic seasonal causing property just as they give carbon dioxide a magic property of governing temperature levels - http://www.crh.noaa.gov/fsd/astro/season.php In case you missed it,scientists can't even properly explain the temperature fluctuation over the course of a year,again,I wouldn't expect you to grasp this. |

It may be that scientists will come up with different notions that contradict each other, but ultimately, the truth will out - and we can be sure it is the truth, because it is decided by no authority but Nature itself.
