1. Agbonkhianmeghe Orobator summarized his lecture by using the expression of Pope Francis: “In the Bible, the God who liberates and saves is the same God who created the universe...” in order to proceed to the interrelationship of creation, salvation, and ecology. Relying on the background of African “religions” and spirituality, Orobator presented four important points: an affirmation of a vital commission between humanity and the environmental ecology, restoration of harmony or balance in…

I decided to research discovery and exploration and William Herschel's discovery of Uranus. I had a lot of fun researching this. William Herschel was an organist for part of his life, and when he settled in England, he decided to expand his interests in music. One particular author of music theory, Professor Robert Smith, also wrote an article on optics and telescopes, and this is what inspired Herschel to adopt a love for astronomy. Most professional astronomers of his day focused on…

The northern coast of Sumbawa Indonesia that in April 1815 exploded in the largest eruption in recorded history. It is now 2,851meters (9,354 feet) high, having lost much of its top in the 1815 eruption. The volcano remains active; smaller eruptions took place in 1880 and 1967, and episodes of increased seismic activity occurred in 2011, 2012, and 2013. Tambora’s catastrophic eruption began on April 5, 1815,. A shattering blast blew the mountains apart on the evening of April 10. The blast…

questioned in confusion. "That's not the only thing that's weird today, temperatures dropping fast even in places where it's summer," Clayton informed, "It seems Planet X has pulled Earth with its gravitational pull. If nothing is done, we will experience another ice age." Earth was at its darkest hours. In just 24 hours Earth will become a frozen wasteland. The President of the United States, Charlie Keston, has been urged to take action. His plan was to blow up Planet X but required the…

When Mount Vesuvius had erupted in 79 AD the eruption caused fatal damage to the environment, causing many animals to be killed by the toxic gases released from the volcano or the chemical in the water caused by volcanic ash in the animal’s water source. Mount Vesuvius had a major effect on vegetation because it left an entire region as a desert wasteland, any plant that had an encounter with lava had died straight away, through other plants died from volcanic ash that was ejected from the…

18B. Describe two different processes (connected to different mechanisms) that cause down- and upwelling. Upwelling and Downwelling refers to the upwards and downwards movment of water molecules in the ocean system. Downwelling happens when near-surface water sinks and upwelling is the subsurface waters rising. Downwelling occurs when the water at the surface of the ocean becomes denser than the water below it, this dense water then sinks. Water becomes dense when it becomes saltier or colder…

An Inconvenient Truth: Rhetorical Description Global warming it is happening what is it and how does it affect them, these are common concerns and questions that come to mind when looking at these posters. While analyzing these two posters, the first thing that is noticeable is one has penguins walking through the desert, and the other has factories and smoke is rolling out of the chimneys. These two posters represent crises that are happening within our climate. What these two posters…

Rainfall in SWWA used to be considered the most consistent and very reliable when it comes to rainfall in Australia. The SWWA region derives much of its rainfall from passing cold fronts and associated storms, which is expected as it being typical features of a winter synoptic pattern and form part of the atmospheric circulation. However annual rainfall in SWWA has declined by approximately 10% since 1970, with a noticeable shift toward drier winter conditions continuing to this day. Not only…

Have you ever dreamed of going to a state where the trees are green all year long, and during winter, the ground is covered with sparkling snowflakes? Well, then Washington is the place for you, with the perfect climate for skiers, snowboarders, and even snowmen builders, or in the summer, a beautiful pool to relax in, while being bronzed by the late summer sun. Granted statehood in 1889, Washington state was named in honor of George Washington; it is the only U.S. state to be named after a…

of planets. In conclusion, Pluto may not be a planet now but will be in the future. Because of its size and ability to grow, Pluto is currently not classified as a regular planet. Pluto checks off two of the terms of being a planet. It orbits the Earth in a regular pattern, and it is also bigger than the minimum mass of being able to form a spherical shape. Because of its miniature or ‘dwarf’ size, it is unable to grow in mass meaning it does not check off the final requirement of being a planet…
