Watt's Up With That: Three Little Known Scientists

A little tidbit of information that might be of interest to people.  This is factual and scientific.  Citing polls with a so-called 97% consensus is irrelevant.

The amazing thing is, most people still don’t know that Earth’s orbit changes significantly because of the gravitational pull of the planets, especially Jupiter. They still don’t know the earth tilt swings between 21.8° and 24.4°, or that the date on which critical events, Equinox and Solstices, are constantly changing.

Correct.  I didn't know.  But this isn't about science, now is it?

The article explains why this is important.  You have to read it.

It confirms a couple things that I have always suspected:  the importance of water, and the variance in solar energy availability for heating the earth.
