The human body temperature is about 37 °C (99 °F), so as the population increases does this cause the Earth’s temperature to rise?
|
I’ve read many papers about Grand Solar Minimums and Glassberg Minimums, known to science for a very long time, and studied and monitored with many public funds. History shows solar activity is the …
|
Reading a course on Precambrian, I read that: Earth Age (around 4.5 billion years) is dated thanks to the meteorites hitting Earth during its formation rather than the inner materials composing the …
