Fact 11 - What causes the weather?
Earth is 8,000 miles (12,800 Kilometres) in diameter and 93,000,000 miles (148,800,000 Kilometres) away from the sun. We receive only 1/2,000,000,000 or .00000005 of 1% of the sun's energy. However, every breeze, tornado, lakeeffect snowstorm or balmy fall evening can be traced to the effect of the sun's energy on our atmosphere.
