case, the earth is growing warmer due to gases being released into our atmosphere. These gases are called greenhouse gases and some of them include carbon dioxide and methane. They are called greenhouse gases because when they are released into the atmosphere they will not let light that has entered leave acting as a greenhouse. This action makes the surface of the earth warm up. Burning coal is one of the main factors which is why we have stopped burning it. The problem with the earth warming…

Eratosthenes was a Greek mathematician, poet, and astronomer, but he is most famously known for being the first person to make a measurement for the size of the Earth. Over 2000 years ago, at the city of Syene, the sun’s rays fell upon a temple column casting a shadow, (1). The scientist noticed that as the sun reached midday, the shadow would not be casted since the sun was directly over the column. However, 800 kilometers to the north in the city of Alexandria, at the same moment at noon,…

Creation vs. Evolution By: Benjamin Garcia How did the earth and all of its inhabitants come to be? This is a question that has puzzled humans for ages. There are two main theories that explain how the earth was formed. These are the theories of evolution and creation. The most accepted creation theory is the one of the biblical creationists. Did a big explosion occur, setting everything in order and providing an atmosphere suitable for life, or did a creator lovingly design us along with…

contrived-in-thirty-seconds rambling, what, precisely, is the medical, scientific, concrete definition of this essay being branded with extreme conviction as the worst on Earth, the worst its lowly seven billion humans have ever created? According to randommedicalresearchsitethathasnothingtodowithmypaperatall.org, "the worst essay on Earth is one that causes hemorrhoids, acne on the face, arms, wrists, legs, knees, back, and chest, all simultaneously, along with an incurable, ravaging spell of…

flood actually happened that is written about in the book of Genesis? The Bible tells us of the Great Flood, how it covered the whole earth. (Gen 17:7 [NKJV]) “Now the flood was on the earth forty days. The waters increased and lifted up the ark, and it was raised high above the earth.” The Bible also gives many clues to how the flood was able to cover the whole earth by God’s design. Many of us have questioned the Word of God; however, investigating to get answers will be the conclusion if the…

expanse, it’s filled with a multitude of stuff: from stars to planets, comets to black holes, there’s even a Super Sized Space Puddle.[1] Yet, some people aren’t interested in what is out there, they’re quite content to keep their mind grounded on earth. And I don’t get that at all. Why wouldn’t you want to know about space? You really should. I’ve always been fascinated by -pretty much- everything around me, but what was beyond our…

In the first article “is Google Making Us Stupid” by Nicholas Carr the main purpose that the author is trying to convey is how online searching and the quick return of the information from searching sites such as Google has affected the way we view and consume information. The author persistently states that to the instantaneous nature that the internet has created a just skimming culture in which information is just browsed and not digested or processed. To prove his argument he uses a number…

Does Google really have all the answers? It sure seems like it with its limitless amount of resources. Almost every question has an answer, and Google can access them all. We use Google almost every day to know more whether it is to prove someone wrong or just to know more. Arguments have been made that Google can make people dumb or smart, but neither one is true. The truth is that we have become more dependent on the search engine for the information. We now lack to will and desire to truly…

heightened increase in greenhouse gases. (A gas that contributes to the greenhouse effect by absorbing infrared radiation, e.g., carbon dioxide and chlorofluorocarbons.-Google) Before I continue, I will first take you for a walk through time, this will give bases for my proposal action against climate change. Since the beginning of time Earth has provided us with everything we ever needed. It has made oxygen, carbon, iron, zinc and many other needed elements, essential for our existence.…

Looking on a general perspective, we all are specially-crafted and abled creatures that reside in every nook and corner of this enormously distributed earth. Concrete existence of life through all these million years of our primitive brothers have confirmed fixed prospects of survival and resource-availabilty in the world. This clearly indicates that all of our basic needs are similar to one another. They include, finding food, shelter and clothing which is genetically hardwired into our…
