A lot of people here are displaying the failure of our public education system. I assume all of them have graduated at least high school and are ignorant on how the Panama Canal operates. Something that used to be taught in grade school.

The rotation of the earth

From west ( sunrise )

to east ( sunset )

1k miles / hr

Would

actually push the Atlantic up

Push the Pacific down

In grade school geography

It was interesting to learn

The tilted polar axis

Gives us seasons

The oval rotation

Makes the distance to the sun

Closer in the northern half

In the winter

Further in summer

Moderating the heating - cooling effect

Increasing it in the southern half

Hotter in the summer

Colder in the winter ( austrayleeahh )

’ StrayLeeyah ‘ shortened they say from there

Also

If your hundreds of miles from the equator

The nights / days never change

Also

You need the long summer days

To grow good sweet corn

Not enough daylight

To do it in Hawaii- calif too
