Sunspot Their effect on Earth
Sunspots are cooler than the rest of the sun, but many scientists think that when there are a lot of sunspots, the sun actually gets 'hotter'. This affects the weather here on Earth, and also radio reception. Without sunspots the earth would probably be cooler. In the same way, if there were too many sunspots, the earth would get really hot, and there would not be a lot of rain. This would make lots of  on the Earth. Droughts are a long time with no rain. People need rain to live. The food we eat can not grow without a lot of rain. A drought can be a very dangerous thing. The sunspots help keep Earth the right temperature. This is cold when compared to other areas on the surface of sun.
