Summary:

Storms: Storms happen when huge masses of air collide. Disaster or not, storms benefit us. the tropical regions of the Earth would be too hot to inhabit, and the subpolar regions too cold, if we didn't have hurricanes and typhoons to distribute the Earth's heat so efficiently. Atmosphere: There is something in the air as Bill Nye talks about the atmosphere, its five different levels, and how it protects the Earth. Bill soars into the heavy topic of atmospheric air pressure and radio waves.
