Presentation transcript:

The sun is the primary source of Energy to Earth’s climate system.

Changes occurring within (or inside) the sun can affect the intensity of the sunlight that reaches the Earth’s surface. The intensity of the sunlight can cause either warming or cooling to Earth’s climate system.

Volcanic Eruptions: Volcanoes emit carbon dioxide and harmful gases into the atmosphere. These gases create a blanket that traps heat in the atmosphere.

Meteorite Impacts: Dust particles that rise up from meteorite impacts can block sunlight from reaching the surface around the entire globe.

Changes in Earth’s Orbit: Changes in the shape of Earth’s orbit as well as the Earth’s tilt affect the amount of sunlight received on Earth’s surface.
