About This Quote

The world was not created as a static situation. Nature does not operate in a vacuum. There is always change and movement and rest, with periods of both extremes. The world we live in is dynamic and ever changing with the seasons changing and the earth moving around the sun.

The seasons are not static, rather they move and change over time. The same goes for the Earth's atmosphere which is constantly changing and adapting to fit its environment.
