I can understand the position of the Earth in space in relation to the sun and how this affects climate.
Show transcript
The Earth rotates on a tilted axis as it orbits the sun.
The sun’s energy is more concentrated near the Equator and spread out over a larger area near the poles.
Average temperature across the Earth is related to how far from the Equator a place is located.
Climate is the average pattern of weather taken over a period of time, usually 30 years.
Some areas of the world share a similar climate; we call these climate zones.
