the change can be brought about by mostly the industrial sector due to the injudicious use of mineral resources. the fumes or gaseous matter diffuse into the upper atmosphere to degrade its stability. the ozone layer has oxygen in molecular O3 form. due to weakening of this layer by the above mentioned agents, the UV rays of the sun break it down to molecular O2 & [O], which is pure atomic nascent oxygen. this depletes the ozone layer's efficiency & makes it permeable to these rays............
the orbit
The length of a day would increase and the number days in a year would decrease.
The days would be longer
If the Earth had no tilt, the angle of insolation for New York would be consistent year-round at 90 degrees, meaning sunlight would hit the location directly overhead. This would result in more direct and intense sunlight compared to the varying angles experienced with Earth's current tilt.
Days and nights would be twice as long.

Changes in Earth's total insolation can be caused by variations in the distance between Earth and the Sun due to the Earth's elliptical orbit (Milankovitch cycles), changes in the Earth's axial tilt, and variations in the transparency of the atmosphere due to factors like greenhouse gas concentrations and volcanic activity.

An increase in cloud cover or an increase in atmospheric particulates like aerosols would lead to a decrease in the amount of insolation absorbed at Earth's surface by reflecting more sunlight back to space before it can reach the surface.
Yes, the angle of insolation would vary on a flat Earth due to the curvature of the planet. Areas closer to the Sun's direct rays would have a higher angle of insolation, resulting in more concentrated and intense sunlight, while areas farther away would have a lower angle of insolation, leading to less direct and less intense sunlight.
convection currents in the mantle
yes it will
the orbit
A lower angle of insolation would result in the sunlight being spread over a larger surface area, leading to less concentrated heating. This would result in a decrease in the maximum temperature of the surface compared to a higher angle of insolation where the sunlight is more concentrated on a smaller area.
The quickest way to change the earth is an earthquake
