Why did we invent leap year?
Oh thats right, because summer keeps landing in winter months. (because we still don't actually know how long an earth year is or earth year lengths change naturally in a semi unpredictable way)

btw another reason this is an issue, is because it effects agriculture if people don't accommodate their crop growth routine to the shift. (plant earlier, harvest sooner, after a few hundred years of leap yearing anyway)

The seasons slide down the calendar year, making summer start later and later each year by a few minutes, each year, every year. Yes we have leap year to correct this, but like I said, it doesn't work perfectly, and its a system of math, built ontop of another more flawed system, that was based on an even more flawed system, and so on, like 5 or so iterations.
It adds up to several weeks after a few thousand years...
How long have we been dealing with this? Oh wait, a few thousand years.
In the end, we need a proper calendar, and to stop emitting poisons into the air, if you want to avoid "global warming".

oh and to nuke china, and mute all people from Canada who speak french.
