Earths season timings shatter: Satellites reveal the planet no longer changing evenly
Satellite data reveals Earth's seasons are becoming fragmented and unpredictable, with neighboring regions falling out of sync. This breakdown in shared environmental timing disrupts agriculture and water cycles, leading to ecological consequences and accelerating biodiversity loss. The planet is no longer a single seasonal system but a patchwork of ecosystems on different clocks.
