The weather here has been unseasonably hot like it would normally in the middle of February when it was unseasonably mild. So I have a theory that planet Earth is moving away from the Sun and there for will have more days in the year.This theory is consistent with the theory of an expanding universe.
Off the top of my head the distance the Earth is from the Sun won't necessarily have any bearing on the length of time it takes for the Earth to travel around the sun (a year). The velocity or speed of rotation around the Sun is what determines the time one rotation takes, not the distance, although they are related through gravity and mass. Turns out the Earth is moving away fro the Sun by 15cm per year, but a year is still a year of 365 days. The number of days in a year, or one rotation of the Earth around the Sun, depends not only on the elapsed time required to complete the circuit but also the speed of rotation of the Earth around its own axis. If the Earth's rotation speeds up we get more days in a given year, if it slows down we get less days in the same year.
we actually have sped up the rotation of the planet within the last 100 years by stockpiling water mainly in the northern hemisphere and that alteration of mass distribution has shortened the length of a day. same principle as a skater spinning going faster when they bring their arms in and change their center of mass
I’m familiar with that theory but the problem is I heard it from a guy who told me he was hearing voices in his head and believed it was the word of God Hotwater
No, just regular old climate change. The Earth has had enough and she is getting rid of the virus that infects her.
Seasons have been funky here for sure - we had two months of winter this year starting right around January 1, one day of spring (seriously) now it feels like summer. We barely had a fall last year, it was 75 on Christmas Day. A couple of years ago we didn't really have a summer, we had a warm (but very cool for this area) rainy season. The year before was one of the warmest summers on record and the heat didn't break until late October. It has been several years since we have really had our normal seasons here. But I definitely attribute it to plain ol climate change
idk, but being over 80 degress here just two days ago sucks....too hot for this time of year. I do not like it.
^ I saw a great doc about that dam and the impact it has on the environment and millions of people. Sometimes the change was for the better, and sometimes really really not. It was clear though that many chinese average joes do not dare to give their honest opinion about that dam Can you imagine how big of a mass of water this dam stops from flowing through in order to have that impact on the earths rotation!? :dizzy2:
Would you say they didn't give a dam? *Note: Yes it took me like 3 times quoting and a Browser change just for that one.
If there wasn't a chinese government official with the (dutch) interviewer they might have been more open. For some the dam fucked up their whole life and still they insisted they didn't have any (negative) opinion about it. You probably heard how it can go there. It's not north korea but it's not peachy fine either by a long shot If you didn't include this I don't think anybody would have noticed
