All the processes which have been launched already of course cannot be reversed or even stooped‚ but we can and we must slow them down in order to spend a few more decades here‚ on the planet Earth. The problem is - even the majority is not enough to save the planet‚ only all together we can save ourselves. Yes‚ exactly "ourselves”

planet Earth. Will the plate tectonics that cause earthquakes and volcanoes ever decrease in activity? As Earth’s human population continues to grow‚ how can urban centres in areas of high risk – flood zones‚ fault lines‚ etc. – cope with or plan for the natural hazards they will inevitably face. How would it change things if the great oceanic currents were radically altered? Will there be mass extinctions in the future as there have been in the past? And most important‚ how do air and earth and water

animals changed also. Holocene sediments contain remnants of more recent plants and animals‚ so it’s pretty easy to differentiate geologically between these two epics. Now there is growing evidence that the presence of humans has altered the earth so much that a new epic of geologic history has begun – the Anthropocene epic‚ a new human-influenced epic. This idea that we’ve entered a new Anthropocene epic was first proposed in 2002. The idea is that around the year 1800 CE the human population

Humans have had the biggest impact on the earth and of all its life support systems since the beginning and its only now when everything’s nearly destroyed that we finally notice that this planet is all we have. The earth has naturally given us and all the other species on earth exactly what we need to survive‚ yet we continue to find new ways to destroy these given resources to make and supply people with things they don’t need.

Earth is a unique planet. So unique that our technology today has not discovered any other planets or satellites that could sustain human life. The earths atmosphere is composed of about 80 percent nitrogen and 20 percent oxygen however‚ space exploration might lead to a discovery of a similar planet to escape the depletion of

Plate Tectonics The forces that shape the earth begin beneath the lithosphere. Rock in the asthenosphere is hot enough to flow slowly. Heated rock rises‚ moves up toward the lithosphere‚ cools and circulates downward. Riding above this circulation system are the tectonic plates‚ enormous moving pieces of the earth’s lithosphere. [pic] Plate Movement Tectonic Plates move in four different ways. When tectonic plates come into contact‚ changes on the earth’s surface occur. 1. Diveregnt Boundary-
