I love that statement - the sun doesn't regulate the earth's temperature. ?I
wonder how she explains that a few degrees of tilt of ?the earth's axis
results in a difference of ? -10 degrees in the winter versus +110 in the
summer. ?The sun couldn't possibly have anything to do with that, or any
other global climate changes.

"the sun doesn't regulate the earth's temperature"

Hmmmmmm...duh.......whyzit colder at night ya think?

So....if Mamma Nature decides to throw the switch and
turn off that big light bulb in the sky will we heat our planet
with carbon, Bunky?

We must be wrong, Bruce. How could the sun have anything
at all to do with climate change?

Maybe as a dumbass common man sense science project
we could get Mamma Nature gassed on her ass and throw
the switch for a week. Turn off the sun for a week and see
what happens.

LOL, thanks for providing a perfect example of why the scientifically illiterate didn't understand what she said. At night the sun doesn't change. It didn't "regulate" the temperature. The position of the earth changed. That's what "regulated" the temperature.

TB

Did you notice that the position of the earth, which you mention, is IN RELATION WITH the sun. You could position the earth anywhere, in any direction, at any tilt on its axis, and with any amount or type or rotation, and without the sun, it would be a cold barren rock. And if we were a few miles closer to the sun and the earth would be a molten mess. Everything else is secondary to the sun when it comes to the temperature of the earth.
