Salt of the Earth

Although more than seventy percent of the Earth is covered in water, people are slowly running out of water because almost every life form on Earth needs water to live and grow. Unfortunately the ocean contains more than 97 percent of all the water on Earth which is undrinkable due to the high levels of salt. With the Earth’s population increasing the level of pollution in the water is raised as well, and if people do not start taking care of the little fresh water that we have then the water…

interesting to see the different viewpoints. There were two most striking differences that spoke out to me the most. The first is noticeable in the first sentence, in Genesis 1, God is the sole creator. He creates everything from the heavens and earth to humans. He creates everything within six days. In Enuma Elish, it starts with two gods named Apsu and Tiamat.…

generation to do something about it)”-Jay Inslee. Climate change is the inevitable future and without the proper precautions the Earth will face a Global Environmental crisis. There are a number of natural factors that affect our climate for instance ocean currents play a big role in our climate. How do Ocean Currents work? well in hot places when the ocean water evaporates the salt stays behind making it warmer. The warmer water mixes with the water that is colder thus ocean current. Another…

solid layers. “Chemical sedimentation is understood in terms of chemical principles and laws” (Sedimentation). The interior of most geodes consists of quartz and calcite. “Quartz crystals are silicates” and a silicate is the most common mineral on earth. Iron, magnesium, copper, and voila are elements that can change the color of the crystals in a geode (Geodes). Climate, Vegetation, Physical and chemical properties of a rock have an impact on the breakdown of minerals in a rock. Sediments can…

programs in Utah today. I care about this issue considering that, in the past 4 years alone, I have lived in two places that didn’t have any recycling programs and I only moved one time. I currently live in an area with no recycling program. Places like Salt Lake City and West Valley have recycling programs, and that is acceptable, but it is imperative that recycling programs expand to more of Utah. This issue affects everyone of all ages in Utah in that it helps decrease the amount of garbage…
