Earth hits its perihelion position in January. Solar radiation is proportional to the distance squared between the sun and the earth, so why isn't it hot in "winter" at perihelion?

C) It is; it is called summer in the Southern Hemisphere, and there is just a time lag for the Northern Hemisphere. D) None of these is correct.
