What If Earth Had an Upside-Down Atmosphere?

What If Earth Had an Upside-Down Atmosphere?

Imagine if Earth's atmosphere flipped upside down—things would get wild! 🌎 Normally, warm air stays near the surface, and cooler air layers are above, but if it reversed, the sky would trap cold air near the ground. 🌬️ That means we’d be freezing at sea level while the tops of mountains could be toasty warm. 🏔️ Weather would go haywire—rain patterns would flip, and we might even see snow in the tropics while deserts could flood. 🌧️ Planes would have to deal with unpredictable turbulence as air currents would be completely messed up. ✈️ The world would be unrecognizable, and scientists would be scrambling to figure out how to survive in this topsy-turvy new Earth!
