Lunatic Global Warming
Full moon’s light has a warming effect on Earth-News-Weather-TimesOnline There also appears to be a link between the Moon and the daily range of temperature. A survey of weather records has revealed that the daily range rises slightly towards full moon, and falls to its lowest at new moon, a difference of up to 0.3C (0.5F).
One explanation is that moonlight can warm the Earth slightly at full moon, although only at night, of course. But the position of the Earth and Moon in the solar system is also important. At full moon, the Earth moves slightly closer to the Sun than at new moon, receiving a touch more solar radiation during the day and raising maximum temperatures.
And how they laughed at Ernst-Georg Beck when he first said that "CO2 amount in air varies monthly with lunar phases" . Of course if CO2 levels follow temperature then this trend he discovered makes perfect sense.
