This video doesn’t discuss NZ specifically but it does show some pretty interesting patterns that affect us.

TL;DW: Southern Hemisphere is

  • 2C cooler
  • 24% stormier
  • somehow protected from pollution from the north

    I believe that because the earth is spinning on an axis, then it’s difficult, if not impossible, for the pollution to cross over. It’s always going to get dragged into a vortex towards the poles. In the same way a hurricane or a cyclone does not cross the equator. It’s physics.
