A man named John Muir was born on April 21, 1838 in Dunbar, Scotland. In 1849, at the age of 11, Muir and his family emigrated to Portage, Wisconsin. Growing up, Muir and his brother would roam the fields and the woods of the rich Wisconsin countryside (Sierra Club 2015). In 1867, while John Muir was working in a carriage parts shop, he suffered a blinding eye injury. After Muir recovered, he decided that he would leave work and go study nature. In 1868, he visited California and that became his

because of his grades, but because he took the classes he wanted and not the required ones. Muir was an avid inventor, submitting many of his creations to the state fair. Muir once created a “wondrous device that tipped him out of bed before dawn”(Wood 2015). Muir later moved to montreal, Canada to

had to be boiled. To do this the engineer would build a fire in the firebox of the train to boil the water. Most of the time the fire was built with coal, which is a fossil fuel and produces a significant amount of carbon emissions when burned, or wood, which also puts off several hydrocarbons when burned. In the day we live in now, we have so many more ways of transportation and manufacturing things that produce much greater of amount of carbon emissions into the atmosphere. Now instead of climbing

one could support that the dark ages were not as dark as it appears. To begin, the events that occurred in the Middle Ages have had an impact on the coming generations. Famous events that would be placed in textbooks and libraries such as the Hundred Years’ War, the Black Death, and the Great Schism. However, there are many unheard events that have made an impact on the world. For instance, Peter S. Wells, author of Barbarians to Angels: The Dark Ages Reconsidered, writes: “In a text written

The Mississippi River is highly regarded as the most important river in Louisiana. One of the lesser known rivers is just as phenomenal, however. The Atchafalaya River (pronounced At-cha-fa-lie-uh), which is adjacent to the Louisianan southern half of the Mississippi River, is so much of a phenomena that the United States Army Corps has been put in charge of controlling the river!

still couldn't make a boat as big at the ark. It is impossible for the ark Noah built to survive the flood over a mountain, when a boat made by skilled English men sunk in an ocean.

It did not seem reasonable that Noah could build an arc that held fourteen thousand animals and themselves and feed them all. A third argument is about the Australian land bridge. The bridge was said to be stretched

At 5 AM, I enter the legendary Virgil, the sun-bleached beige 2004 Toyota Sienna that transports our hiking group to the White Mountains. Worn from hundreds of thousands of miles of aggressive Massachusetts-style driving, Virgil’s suspension is bumpier than the Italian economy. Its floor mat was ripped out long ago, exposing the plastic base. In some spots, we can look down between coffee stains and see the road whizzing by. As we pass through bucolic pastures, then weave through rolling hills, and
