1. Describe how earth would be affected if it were placed at a 0° tilt? -Trevor Stines
If the earth was at a 0° tilt, we would not have any seasons. The reason why we have seasons is because the 23.5° tilt of the earth exposes the northern hemisphere more towards the sun which in effect causes the warmer seasons and when it’s tilted away it causes cooler seasons. Moreover, it would affect temperatures and weather pattern across the earth. The weather would be the same all across the world. So if it’s a wet area it would be wet all season long, same if it was dry. This would impact the population distribution and it may create an imbalance on earth and it’s natural habitat and inhabitants.
