Earth's orbit creates more than a leap year

The Earth's orbital behaviors are responsible for more than just presenting us with a leap year every four years. According to Michael E. Wysession, Ph.D., associate professor of earth and planetary sciences in Arts & Sciences at Washington University in St. Louis, parameters such as planetary gravitational attractions, the Earth's elliptical orbit around the sun and the degree of tilt of our planet's axis with respect to its path around the sun, have implications for climate change and the advent of ice ages.

Another set of massive variables, not even taken into acount by rigged envirofascist computer models (more like Playstation).

Massive variables?
The differences in the earth’s orbit is quite well-known as it happens.
The difference between Aphelion and Perihelion is around 3.3%. Given that insolation is inverse square law, the difference in distance would make about a 6.6% difference. By contrast, the tilt of the axis makes about a 300% difference at UK latitude.
Aside from accepting the Aphelion/Perihelion difference*, the subsequent calculations are my own. Feel free to correct them.
And, just for the record, it has been taken into account by climatologists.

*mentioned in the article you cited.

Your postings would be far more likely to change peoples' minds if you did not keep saying fascist all the time.

Persumably you think the clean air fact was fascist and the smogs went away off their own accord.

No I will use the word fascist, when that is what something is.

No I didn't think the clean air act was facist, as it was demonstrable that the effects were bad on others and their was no doubt about it.
