Discuss the various factors responsible for the uneven temperature distribution on Earth's surface.

While the Earth's heat budget is balanced, yet there are horizontal and vertical variations in temperature distribution

Factors Responsible (diagram showing insolation at equator and poles)

by tilt causes the earth while rotating and revolving to tilt towards the sun. North hemisphere tilt during its summer help scach more insolation, contrast it with noon, which has negligible tilt since south pole is feared all year round

Earth

with effective mobility and ease of traveling & doing business nation on whole can more to development (eg: regional economic centers be created)

Double edged - negative effect:

) It could create regional imbalances and enhance north-south shift

) States like UP, Bihar, Jharkhand already have low HDI (as per NITI aayog state index) with higher than national average incidents of multidimensional poverty

) IJ equal overhead capital formation doesn't take place their dividend could then into liability

) potential to fuel regionalism (eg: recent migrant crisis in Tamil Nadu)

Overall, the developments are positive, now effects should be on targeted measures for vulnerable sectors State governments also need to match up with efforts of Union & ensure localization of DBs

Environmental impact:

1. Increase in pollution, global warming

2. Rise in disasters like landslides, cloud bursts, glacial lake outburst flood

3. Impact on biodiversity

4. Decrease in glaciers (over 11,000 yrs)

5. Erratic monsoons

6. New issues like land subsidence

Sustainable tourism measures:

infrastructure and it's growth is perceived to be result of slum with inhabitable conditions. But it's wrong assessment.

In reality slums form when although urban labour demands increase but not its infrastructure capacity to absorb them. People in slums work for so called 'upper class urban dwellers' in their homes & factories but don't find a life of dignity for their own.
