In the economy of things,one of the most misunderstood phenomena is the sun’s role in global warming – an element of climate change- and I’m so excited to share my tiny portion of knowledge regarding this topic. Many think the weather is so hot and dry because the sun is getting hotter… That is correct but not really. The truth is despite the fact that the sun is getting hotter,it has no part in global warming. Let’s get it right… let’s discuss nature and Science.

First, let’s talk a little about the sun.. Science made us believe the sun was birthed by the Bing Bang theory . On the other hand,an average Christian will tell you that God made all things including the sun…The question one will ask is ” where was it recorded that God made the sun? ,”Was it really created? ” Or “was the sun always there? “because the creation story didn’t feature the sun. Well , the truth is the answer to that question is In your Bible. Hmm… let’s save this discussion for another day. The nitty gritty is the sun and its relationship with global warming. So…who’s the sun? ⛅…

The sun is a mega G2 star of surface temperature about 5,800 kelvins and its mass is 743 times the total mass of all the planets in the solar system and 330,000 times that of Earth . It is made up of Helium and hydrogen (98 percent of it ; the remaining 2 percent of the sun is made up of metals). Let’s see helium as hot water and hydrogen as cold water. Now,at the point of its formation , hydrogen was higher than helium meaning its temperature was less intense. But as time continued his race down the race of existence , helium increased and hydrogen decreased

So why is the weather so hot? … Well,it’s as a result of the presence of compounds known as green house gases…They absorb heat emitted from your gas cookers, deforestation , industrial activities etc. But it doesn’t end there, they also return the “gifts” to the earth’s surface, causing dryness or hotness to bully our skins. Some of these green gases include carbon, methane, ozone and water vapour. This is what is known as global warming.

It’s like bouncing a basketball;heat goes up and comes down. Indeed, what goes up will surely come down. In simple terms ,the Heat is the basketball and you’re the court .
