The latitude and longitude of which is 40° 04’05. 12’’N and 83°06’30. 32’’W, with an elevation that ranges between 797 to 758 feet.

    Arizona became the 48th state of the union on February 14, 1912, the last of the lower continuous states to join the nation. Despite this Arizona has archaeological evidence dating back thousands of years which leads some to believe it is one of the oldest states to be continually populated, long before Europeans inhabited the Americas.

Throughout the years Arizona was also dominated by Mexico before coming under U.S. control and eventually becoming a state.…

It’s location in the south gives it a very dry and hot climate with primarily shrubbery and grasses. The only problem brought about by it’s location is that it is a very far drive from most areas of Texas.…

    One of the most unique and special National Parks to me is Zion in Utah. The Colorado Plateau region lies along the side of Zion. This Park is very beautiful and has many different attributes to it but with out a doubt its red dirt and mountains are wonders. Zion is 229 square miles (147,551 acres) and has around 75 species of mammals, 271 birds, 32 reptiles and amphibians, 8 fish. The rock layers have been through so much; for example, they have been uplifted, tilted, and eroded, forming a feature called the Grand Staircase. This incredible landmark also carries the Virgin River right through it. My experiences at Zion have been only but amazing, I have learned so much and enjoy being surrounded by such a radiant red rock. I have found that this park has much history to still be found. What I have come across to be most interesting at this National Park is the Virgin River, Checkerboard Mesa and the Sedimentation taken place.…

    Fracking is a process of injecting water, sand, or chemicals at a high pressure into rocks that creates cracks within these rocks which allows oil or gas to flow through. After the oil or gas flows through, it is now able to be extracted. This also releases brine, or waste, which is then pumped into injection wells. Although this process could bring millions of dollars into the oil and gas industry, it is also the number one cause of earthquakes in Texas. It also can release carcinogenic chemicals, or chemicals that aid in causing cancer.…
