Figure 2.2 Change in temperature in response to change in altitudeANGLE OF SUNLIGHT
In the Northern Hemisphere winter, Earth is closest to the sun. The angle of
sunlight reaching Earth affects the climate. Areas closest to the equator receive
the most sunlight and therefore have higher temperatures.
CARBON CYCLE
The consumption of carbon in the form of carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) results in
cooling. Two different processes consume carbon dioxide: carbonate rock
