The Age of Exploration was a time period that has had significant influences in the modern world. It was the moment in which Europe was brought out of the Dark Ages and into an era of discovery. The risks taken within the 15th and 18th century allowed both positive and negative outcomes to be introduced to the European Exploration. There were many motives for this era, and many outcomes came about. However, they were both negative and positive. To summarize the motives of this age, a simple combination can be stated. The main purposes of the Age of Exploration was God, Gold, and Glory.

First, on our journey we began near St. Louis to make our way west and pass through the continental divide to reach the Pacific Coast. President Thomas Jefferson commissioned us on the expedition shortly after the Louisiana Purchase. We were to explore and to map the newly acquired territory worth 15,000,000. We had to find a practical route across the western half of the continent, and establish an American presence in this territory before Britain and other European powers tried to claim it. The campaign's secondary objectives were scientific and economic: to study the area's plants, animal life, and geography, and to establish trade with local Native American tribes which we succeeded in .

This map shows the whole journey that Lewis and Clark ventured through. It started in Pittsburgh and went all the way to fort Clatsop. The rivers they went through the Mississippi river, Missouri river, the Yellowstone river, and the Marias river. The forts they went through are Camp wood Saint Louis, Fort

There were many factors that led to the beginning of the Age of Exploration. One of the main factors

OBJECTIVE: Students will be able to analyze a series of sources related to the causes and effects of exploration and answer questions.

The teacher will ask the students where they began their journey. Then the PowerPoint will show the students the location on a blank United States map. The students will then have to put the point on their own maps. The students and teacher will continue to ask the next location, and then plot the point on the map. Once the student’s finish they will have plotted the general course that Lewis and Clark traveled to reach the Pacific

When trees are burned, CO2 is relinquished. The burning of astronomically immense areas of trees is known as deforestation. Human activities integrate more CO2 into the atmosphere through activities like the burning of fossil fuels. The guiding question of this investigation is, “Which carbon cycle process affects atmospheric carbon the most?” The researchers initially wanted to learn 2 things. First, the researchers wanted to learn how much carbon engenderment there would be if they incremented the amount of fossil fuels burnt by a certain amount. The researchers also wanted to learn how much carbon engenderment there would be if they incremented the amount of deforestation.

After being issued by President Thomas Jefferson to map, explore, and compile information on the land just bought through the Louisiana Purchase, Captain Meriwether Lewis and 2nd Lieutenant William Clark set off on one of the greatest expeditions of all time. This paper will explore what adversities were faced on the Corp of Discoveries. From militant Indians to diseases like dysentery, they faced it all. And as Captain Lewis documented, “We went as close to hell as you can go in this lifetime.” (11.Perry)

The 20th century brought with it a drastically different perception of how we look at the Age of Exploration for a number of reasons. One of these reasons was a change in the perception

Many people see successful expeditions as some of the most important moments in history but I personally think that the failures are just as important if not more. Without all of the failures, we wouldn’t have learnt what the cause of the problem was and known not to make the same mistake again.

Lewis and Clark went on their journey to explore the western region of what is now known as

The Lewis and Clark expedition changed the way that people travel and live their daily lives. With many obstacles and struggles that they had to overcome the trip became named The Lewis and Clark Expedition after the strong, independent, and humble leaders. With the whole expedition being a pride and joy to their colonization they overcame many obstacles, found resources, made allies and enemies as well as made new discoveries and findings. From the outstanding ways that they survived to the people that worked with and helped them proceed on their journey, the Lewis and Clark expedition is sure a event in history that many are sure to remember and take pride in.

Since the Industrial Revolution, there has been an increased presence of pollutants and carcinogens in the environment, specif-ically in urban areas.1 The presence of airborne pollutants can lead to an increase in allergic reactions and asthma rates. A common airborne pollutant is carbon monoxide (CO), which is commonly found in diesel exhaust. It is an odorless gas produced from me-thane and non-methane hydrocarbon oxidation.2 The toxic gas eliminates and takes the place of oxygen in the form of carboxy-hemoglobin when it binds to hemoglobin in red blood cells. It also affects the binding sites of heme groups, which complicates the transfer of oxygen to tissues.3 The majority of deaths from carbon monoxide poisoning is brought on from car exhaust.4 Between the years 1979 and 1988, 57% of deaths from carbon monoxide poi-soning were brought from car exhaust. There tend to be higher rates of carbon monoxide poisoning from car exhaust in northern regions, where temperatures are relatively low (Figure 1). 5
