One of the environmental problems today is air pollution. Air pollution is a mixture of solid particles and gases in the air (). Air pollution not only hit local but‚ is a major quality problem all over the world. Some of the main issues in Georgia are pollen‚ car emission‚ company pollution‚ and chemical waste. In the county I resided in pollen and emission is the high rated problem. The problem with air pollution is affecting the lives on earth causing health problems. I personal never had issues

(Dunbar‚ 2012).Sprites starts up in the mesosphere‚ a layer of the earth’s atmosphere directly above the stratosphere and below the thermosphere extending from 50 to 85 km above our planet (“The Mesosphere”‚ 2016)‚ and extend upwards towards the edge of the ionosphere. The ionosphere is considered an extension of the thermosphere; it is not another atmospheric layer. It represents

Climates and Oceans- 1. With coastal climates‚ the locations are on the windward side‚ meaning the weather patterns move from the ocean to land‚ giving them mild summers and cool winters. This means that there isn’t a very large temperature range for coastal climates. Inland climates are more of the land heating and cooling‚ because they heat to high temperatures in the day and then cool a great amount at night. Also‚ the weather patterns are moving from land to water‚ creating warmer summers and
