the atmosphere, trapping radiation, and heating the Earth. Humans are depending on fossil fuels that release these emissions.

Iceland is located in the North Atlantic sea, near the arctic circle. Iceland is 40,000 square miles large, which is approximately the size of Virginia and Kentucky combined. Only around 20 percent of the island is inhabited, and it is smallest country in Europe based on population (Geography). Some refer to the island as the land of fire and ice due to the presence of both glaciers and volcanoes (Gunnarsdóttir, Nanna, 2016). Volcanoes can even be found beneath glaciers. Glaciers cover more than…

The downside of the internet is that it blurs the line between a fantasy world and real life. The internet is encouraging people to create independent worlds for each other that make it even harder to simply be human and be aware of the world. Technologies are assimilating human existence to an economic model which has nothing to do…

are only known to exist upon Earth. From the beginning of time, life has evolved upon our planet. The vast Oceans of our world were only known as one. The lands came to exist among this ocean, further dividing it until there were not one but seven Oceans. It is from these expanses of water that life came to be upon Earth. From the sea, they evolved and thrived upon land. Their lives are dependent upon surviving nature. Their abilities to live within nature upon Earth are incomparable. They…

What has the world come to? In 2393, life is completely different, and Earth is barely able to sustain the lives it protects.

a small source of mineral-tasting water. But despite his near-death condition, he manages to spot an old ‘jollycart’, and walks across the rails – so near the flat earth – to it and his liberation from the lethal island. This obviously took a great amount of courage and bravery, as everyone in ‘Railsea’ knows the peril of the flat earth, and particularly the monsters that live beneath it. On the other hand, Sham could have simply stayed on the island for the remainder of his life, though…
