No. If anything, it's the opposite. As the Sun looses mass, the gravitational attraction is reduced slightly, so if anything we are moving very slightly away from the Sun.

Why does weather change during the year?
because the Earth is tilted and when it orbits, the Earth tilts in different directions causing parts of the world to be closer to the sun parts of the year, and further away from the sun other parts of the year... gosh i learnt this last year in year 7 -.-

Is earth getting closer to sun last 50 years?
no
Is the earth getting closer to the sun because of the sun's gravity?
In fact, the Earth is moving away from the Sun at about 15cm per year. This is due to the Sun losing mass as it converts hydrogen into energy and because of tidal interference
What month of the year is the earth closer to the sun?
December
Does the earth get farther and closer to the sun over time?
Most people willl probably say "yes." I am not sure about it, my friend told me that in her school it says the earth gets closer to the sun every year.

What is the relationship between the distance a planet is from the sun and its year?
A year is the time it takes to orbit the sun. Therefor the closer you are to the sun the smaller the orbit and the shorter the year
What causes the planets that are closer to the sun move faster?
since it is closer to the sun it gets around the sun faster cause it has less of a rotation to go around Mercury only has 88 days in a year cause its closer but since were farther we have 365 days in a year
What is a good con for the sun?
well every year the sun pulls all planets closer an inch may not seam like much but earth has been here over 100billion year so you may think its a con
