What has the world come to? In 2393, life is completely different, and Earth is barely able to sustain the lives it protects. In “The Collapse of Western Civilization: A View From the Future”, written by Naomi Oreskes and Erik M. Conway, the audience is taken on a literary journey to the end of the world. The figurative language and imaginative scenes that fill the imagination help support the evidence of the decaying Earth. The Collapse of Western Civilization essentially talks about the end…

creation of millions of cosmic entities such as stars and galaxies. As incredible as the creation of these celestial beings are, there is something more exciting that it created; us.

In the book Journey of the Universe, the authors, Brian Thomas Swimme and Mary Eveln Tucker, tell the story of the universe 's creation of life and its struggle to maintain perfect equilibrium while…

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…

Professor Russ physical science class, there’s a plethora of subjects you, as a student, are bound to cover. This semester we had discuss over twenty different fields of science; the first being Geometry and Eratosthenes computing circumference of earth. We started the final semester off with two worksheets. The first was the “Angles of a Triangle”, we had to cut out the three angles of the triangle and piece them together in a shape. The three angles form a straight line; which led us to…

being natural. Some say that the earth is able to handle all the pollution and CO2 that is produce without any draw backs. But the reality of the matter is that disastrous events are happening throughout the earth and all of them seem to point out to one thing, that global warming is harming our planet and that is our job to help our planet.

Climate change is a global-scale atmospheric externality. It is an issue that must be understood and addressed globally. Environmental trends based on scientific and observed studies have shown an increase of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, an increase of the Earth’s surface and ocean temperature causing a decline in sea ice, and more prevalent extreme weather patterns- all due to human influence. However, trying to understand each of these trends separately will not fully explain the causes…

The earth is under global warming condition, it is almost going to end. Dr. Brand is a science professor who has been working on the project on figuring out the formula to save the earth. Dr. Brand encourages Cooper to go find the way out to save the earth by telling him that “we have plan B as a backup plan” (Nolan & Thomas, 2014). He has settle down two plans to save the earth. Plan A is to move all the people on the earth to another planet. Plan B is to let the…

Lots of people do something or read something without thinking about what they have done, they don’t understand the essence of it. If they took the…

Moon: Theia Impact or “Big Splash” Theory: When in Earth was still in a molten state, an impactor (Theia) collided with the still forming Earth. Debris and magma that separated from the original body is believed to have congregated and formed into our moon, remaining in its “parent’s” orbit. (Most Plausible Explanation) Fission Theory: Chunk of magma separated from Earth in early formation stages. Pacific ocean basin is said to be where material was removed. Capture Theory: The moon was formed…

pain grows and grows until finally he vomits the sun and it brightened the world each day. The heat from the sun’s rays caused much of the water to float into the sky and clouds are formed; Bumba comes up and he dries himself he looked down upon the earth and he could see black rifles, black sand-banks, and the black edges of the world. After a while Bumba felt horrible pain in his stomach again this time he vomits the moon and stars. Later, he vomits the first living creatures: the leopard, the…
