“Hey guys! This is the last communication you shall receive from me. I now walk out to live amongst the wild. Take care, it was great knowing you” (Qtd. In Krakauer 69).

Everybody at least wants to go somewhere new in their lifetime. Perhaps it’s to visit family or maybe it’s to get away from the same old, same old, I’ll admit Indiana is pretty boring. Anyways, I’ve always wanted to go to Oregon, mainly because of the weather. Like every state, Oregon has it’s advantages and disadvantages. I’ve always adored Oregon for some reason and have always fantasized of living there, even if I don’t live there, a vacation to Oregon would still be suffice.

It is because of the forethought of others that I am able to experience Hawaii’s natural magnificence. I want my children – and their children, for generations to come – to be able to say the same. It is for this reason that I believe we must utilize a twofold sustainable ideal in which we protect the environment while also growing economic prosperity. We must strike a balance between revering nature and supporting human quality of life.

The photo above is the photo I think should be removed. I think it should be replaced because it does not really represent the Pacific maritimes wildlife. There are so many other animals that can be found in the pacific maritime. For example there are Black-tailed Deer, Black and Grizzly bears, Mountain Lion, Fisher, Chestnut-backed Chickadee. Some water animals are Sea Lions, Seals, and whales. I think if animals are going to be shown at least a variety of them should be shown. I don't see any point in showing bears over any of the other animals in the Pacific maritime. I chose the photo at the bottom to replace the one on top because agriculture is actually a big part of the pacific maritime. The pacific maritime also has very rich soil

Hearing the dissatisfaction and grumble from a vast group of people all about one thing can be disheartening at times, especially when it is from our own citizens, the ones who bailout the government in rough times. Seeing the signs and faces of those who have completely given up hope for the United States only makes our great nation look weak. California finds the current state of the United States to be so terribly inhospitable that they, as a state, want to secede from the Union.

Since of global warming the sea levels are rising in the oceans surrounding Hawaii. So since the ocean levels are rising it is causing the the coast to slowly erode away because the water keeps pushing up against it. If the ocean keeps rising and eroding the coast slowly the whole island will be eroded and it will just turn into an ocean.

There are many different types of volcanoes in the United States. Composite, Ciner and Shield are the three types of volcanoes. Over the history of Hawaii, covering about 85 million years, there have been 129 volcanoes formed due to the hot spot and of that 129, 123 of them are extinct or seamounts. In Hawaii today, there are currently five active volcanoes, Lo'ihi, Kilauea, Mauna Loa, Hualalai and Haleakala. Lo'ihi is the only underwater volcano in Hawaii; the other four volcanoes are above sea level. Kilauea is a hyperactive shield type volcano. Volcanoes are mainly found where tectonic plates are diverging or converging. The Mid Ocean Ridge is an example of divergent tectonic plates pulling apart, where the Ring of Fire is an example of convergent tectonic plates pushing together. Hawaii today is comprised of many different volcanoes with several different volcano types.

Hawaii is an excellent way to predict how we will solve environmental problems in a more human-filled future, not because it is densely populated, but because it is an island far away from any major land masses. Because of how little land there is in or close to Hawaii, inhabitants must import food, gas, and manufactured goods. Many other states also do this, but none of them are located in the middle of the Pacific. You can see the effect of shipping costs in something as simple as milk: in Hilo, Hawaii, milk costs about $6.21 while in Hartford, Connecticut—a state similar in size and denser in population—milk costs about $3.65 (Numbeo). Hawaii’s separation along with its small size make many

Miami is an amazing place for living with different restaurants, clubs, beaches, unique parks and fantastic weather. After two years of being here, it became my home.
