A lot would happen depends on which perspective you look at it from. Less incoming solar radiation means that there is a greater possibility of the surface temperature of earth reducing. there would be a cooling effect. And it could be major cooling in certain part of the world depending on milankovitch cycles. We know that the amount of light or solar radiation that reaches the earth is unequal in different parts of the world because of the obliquity, eccentricity, and precession of the earth. But, in general you would most likely see a cooling trend around the world and in some parts it would be extreme. In Canada or in the North is general, winters would become even more cooler or colder... winters would become longer perhaps, And summers would 've cooler. on the contrary to what most believe, you would most likely see a decline in precipitation such as snow or rain because this is mostly caused or intensified by warming temperatures. Life would be probably very similar to that of the Pleistocene epoch. how would humans respond to this change... Well most likely they would try to use their tech to control weather because they already do to a smaller proportion.

hope that helps a bit! :)

frozen [14]
Well if the rock doesn't move, then there is no amount of work done. There is no work done on an object if a force is applied to the object but it DOES NOT change its position, in this case is the rock.
