You'd think that the Northern and Southern Hemispheres would be basically symmetrical -- that since our planet is a ball, the climate, temperature, and weather patterns would be the same on top as on the bottom. But there are some pronounced differences. Let's explore why.

Also, I am not going to subscribe to a channel that almost certainly will promote the concept (in advanced stages) of putting particulates into the atmosphere to reflect sunlight, amusingly agreeing that the PRIMARY driver of "Climate Change" is THE SUN.!!!

It is also going to cause storms to be more severe form those higher temperatures that will temporarily lower temperatures but more contrasting higher highs and lower lows.

    Anyone that’s lived for extended periods of time in both hemispheres can attest to the air cleanliness aspect. From my Southern Hemisphere perspective, the north seems perpetually shrouded in a haze. Even on a totally clear day, the skies are more of a milky light blue than the intense, darker, pure blue of the southern hemisphere skies.

    Haziness also depends heavily on humidity. In Brazil, we have a lot of days with clear skies, but the air is kind of grey in every direction, and you can't see more than a few km. It's not fog but just a vague greyness. I'm four hours from the nearest major city. There's not much pollution here. We just have a lot of days over 80% humidity.

    The first time I went to Europe from my native New Zealand, I couldn't believe how different the sky was. Up north, it has a hazy quality, and the the sky seems a paler blue. Looking out to sea from the Italian coast, one couldn't see clearly where the sea stopped and the sky started, they seemed to blend into each other. In New Zealand, the horizon is clear and sharp on fine days. It's one of those elements of culture shock, up there with discovering it's difficult to find a beach to yourself up over.

Standing in a middle of a field in NZ in summer with the temperature at 25degC, feels very hot. In Europe, 30degC seemed no problem. Without sunscreen most will show signs of sun burn within 15 minutes here, but not as much of a problem even in Australia. We didn't need sunscreen at all while traveling in Europe, even though we were outside a lot of the time. One game of football without sunscreen here, you will be burnt.

    Australia too. A lot of people like to simplify it by blaming the hole in the ozone layer, and that's certainly part of it, but the other reason for it is because the Earth's rotation around the sun isn't a perfect circle, during Summer in the Northern Hemisphere the Earth is at the furthest point from the sun, thus the Summer sun is a bit more mild, and during Summer in the Southern Hemisphere the Earth at the closest point to the sun, thus the sun is a lot harsher.

Similarly, the Falkland Islands are situated as far from the equator as Frankfurt, a city known for its high temperatures during the summer season.

    Having lived in both New South Wales Australia, and Mindanao Philippines, I agree with what you say. It's no surprise that there is more pollution in the Northern Hemisphere, although I have to say that Mindanao often has air quality as good as where I have lived in Australia. Of course, having lived in Mindanao, I know the ITCZ very well! When it moves north of the equator, it often means many days of rain, and this is most likely in the time of Habagat, the Southwest Monsoon. I'm aware as well that weather in Australia can be affected by the Indian Ocean Dipole, and the position of jetstreams as well, as seen in the current unseasonal rains in the far north of Australia, and the recent rain at Uluru.

I was at primary school way back then, my parents brought me back home early that day, it's a good thing too as probably all of the routes that we could take home would have bene blocked by some sort of debris (mainly fallen trees).

    As someone who has lived for many decades in the southern hemisphere, I can tell you that it is less stormy than 30 to 40 years ago. We used to get regular afternoon storms in our wet season, and a number of cyclones coming down our east coast each year. We used to joke about setting your watch by the afternoon storms, they were that regular. So it isn't getting stormier faster in Australia.

    Actually no, Australia is the exception in southern hemisphere, and is by far the hottest place in southern hemisphere during southern summer. Northern hemisphere summers are hotter than the south on average and winters colder thanks to north largely being land and south being overwhelmingly ocean. It reflects average temperatures for Earth as a whole which follows northern hemisphere temperatures pattern rather than neutral or southern hemisphere temperature pattern

    It's just something new and unpredictable. It can be good or bad, but here's the thing. We built our society based on certain things being predictable. As those things change, it brings random chaos, which is usually bad. Most modes of existence are not survivable, and we have to get a lot of factors just right to survive. It's a lot easier to destroy than it is to create. It's not easy to move a whole city from somewhere that is now uninhabitable to somewhere that is newly inhabitable. Stability is a good thing.
