resources and human impact on earth

A. The renewable stuff tht we ciould us in stuff like water bottles, pop cans, pop bottles, and other stuff we should be recylcing. if we were to turn our heat to 68 during the winter then we would save so much energy for us to use when we need it the most. fuels can not be renewed so it is hard for us to make new fule. One way we could help save the fule is to make more cars that are electric. this would save fule for us. electricity is renewable and we could save a lot of money if we keep the heat and tvs and alot of other things.

B.the impact on the environment that humans have is stuff like pollution, killing off trees to biuld bildings. this is not good because it is takeing away the animals habbitat. so we are not going to have that much animals if we keep on destroing there stuff. if we pollut the air it could cause the animals to be born and not be right.if we dump our waste in waters and all of that stuff then we could see that we would not be able to eat the fish in the water because it is polluted.

C.  the life cycle of gas is when it goes throght many different stages. the production of nateral gas in when you mine is like u would gold.the paciging is when it goes throgh a line in to your house for many thinks. like a stove a heater. there are many more.it is desoped of by it being burned up by the stove or what ever else you use that uses gas. the pollution is that it is not good to inhale. it could make you relly sick.

The Water Cycle

A. Evaporation- is a type of vaporization of a liquid, that occurs only on the surface of a liquid.
Transpiration-is the evaporation of water from plants.
Condensation- is the change of water from its gaseous form (water vapor) into liquid water.
Percipitation- is the quantity of water falling to earth at a specific place within a specified period of time.
Infiltration- is the process by which water on the ground surface enters the soil.
Surface runoff- is the water flow that occurs when soil is infiltrated to full capacity and excess water from rain, snowmelt, or other sources flows over the land.
Groundwater- is water located beneath the ground surface in soil pore spaces and in the fractures of lithologic formations.
Absorption- The act or process of absorbing or the condition of being absorbed

B. the flow of water throght a water shed is were the water flows to many differen t places. if you were to stand out side on the ground, you r standing in a watershed. A watershed is an area of land that drains all the streams and rainfall to a common outlet. water goes throght the water shed and they it is relesed in to rivers,lakes,ponds, and alot of more stuff.

C. the river typs of flooding is when there is to much water in the river, then the river will over flow. this could cause erosion witch is were the ground startes to fall in to the the water.

Bad astronomy blog

I thoght that if u were close to the sun and u looked at it, it would blind you. Another thing i thoght was true was the equiptment used to calulate were the metor was going to hit. I was right if you look at the sun if u are in space u could go blind. I was righ about the equiptment used can perdict a metor is true, but they can not perdict were it is going to land thoght.

I thoght that when we sent astronates on the comet to blow it up, that it was fack, because a comet is to clod for someone to stand on then. Comets are to fast for some one to stand on to.
The comets surface was gray and black. A comet is wight. therefor they were wrong.
