Essay on Earth

and atoms created four layers in the planet. The crust, mantle, outer core, and inner core. The crust makes up 1% of the earth and is the outermost layer. Just below the crust is the mantle. It is the largest layer, and it is semi-solid. Below the mantle is the outer core. Made of 5,000 degrees celsius liquid iron, it creates a magnetic field that protects the earth from deadly particles, and from harmful UV rays. Scientists are even predicting that the poles will flip because of it. The

Global Warming and Planet Earth: A Hot Topic! Diane Atwood Charter Oak State College Global Warming and Planet Earth: A Hot Topic! Earth is heading for ruin. Moreover, we all have a hand in taking it there, inadvertently though it may be. Humans are adding an abundance of greenhouse gases to the atmosphere that contribute directly to global warming; and we continue to do so every time we start our car, turn up the heat, turn on the lights or throw away trash. Global warming is

in the field of severe weather events, but studies of this data remains substantial. Many studies show a trend in temperatures on earth. Be it globally or in the oceans, significant information demonstrates a rise by a few degrees Celsius. A data analysis provided by NASA’s Earth Observatory website written by Michael Carlowicz states that temperatures on the Earth are rising from 1880 to 2014. Before 1800, the data collected was not extensive enough to cover the globe. The rise of 0.8° Celsius

article “The History of Earth Day” by Amanda Davis states, “In 1962 Gaylord Nelson decided to do something needed to be done to the environment.” Earth Day is an important day to Earth. We need to take good care of our home and care about it. I think we need Earth Day because Nelson thought about the Earth and cared about it, now because of Nelson more people care about the Earth, and now Earth Day is an official holiday. I think that Gaylord Nelson is important to Earth Day because now more people

Yesterday I got a new neighbor. He says he is a member of the flat earth society. But he is very wrong. The earth is not flat at all, it is round. I’m going to figure out a way to make him believe that the earth is not flat. Then he will not be a member of the flat earth society anymore and he can go prove to his friends that it is not flat. Well to start off, Earth is round and everyone knows that. The earth was formed from clouds and dust which created stars and other things. The earth’s core

The earth is round due to the fact that when we look up into space, we can see that the other planets are round, so we can infer that earth must be round as well. Another reasoning can be how we have time zones, which means the sun hit different places at different times on earth. The sun also travels lower when you get away from the equator. At night, the stars change when you go from north to south. Lastly, during a solar eclipse, the shadow of the earth on the moon is curved. The idea of a flat

Wesley Lisi Camp Costa Rica 1/20/18 Title Earth University was made in 1985 in response to the central America economic, political and, social crisis. This was done by the Costa Rican government, the United States Agency for International Development and, the W.K. Kellogg Foundation. Then in 1989 the construction of the main Earth campus started. The location of the first and main Earth campus is in Limon. 1990 was the first Earth University was open and the first class of students only consisted

People say Earth was created by God or created by the universe, The Big Bang Theory or started out with small bacteria and grew and so on, but in this fictitious story The Earth on Turtle’s Back Native Americans believe in this story that is a myth that Earth was profoundly grown on a turtle’s back. The depict setting shows truly how this story is based on a myth. It show variety of characters, some animals others human, explaining each importance in how the world was created. Even though there are

It would take 3.3 Planets if everyone lived the way I live. I use 14.7 global acres according the Earth Day Footprint Calculator. Most of my use came from services, followed by almost equal amounts in shelter, mobility, goods, and food. I was actually quite surprised to see my rating as I accepted it to be much lower. This calculator really illustrates the importance of green energy. My home is a rental and is typical in the state I live in regarding the use of standard electrical services as

scientists who study the physics of the universe beyond Earth. Galileo Galilei is a famous astronomer and is often known as “the father of modern astronomy.” He created the first telescope with 30x magnification. Nicolaus Copernicus was a famous Polish astronomer who established the concept that the Sun, rather than the Earth, is the center of the solar system and is Earth’s main source of light. His discovery lead to the concept that the Earth and other planets rotate around the Sun. Therefore, because
