Aspect 1: Weather and ClimateThe first aspect is about the Earth's atmosphere. There are four sections to it, and they are, the atmosphere, sunlight and Earth's season, solar energy and winds, and the water cycle (cloud formation and weather patterns). Every section is related to the Sun's energy because the Sun's energy drive the weather and produce different climates. The atmosphere is essential to our daily life because it protects us from the Sun's radiation but also it helps moderate the temperature of the Earth.
