Enviromental Encouragement

We always hear terrible things about our enviroment so I thought I would tell you about some good (current)things... Here are the top 3 I found.


01. The Grey Wolf has been removed from the endangered list! It was near extinction about 15 years ago and moved to the endangered list about 10 years later....and THIS week dun da duh da.... IT was removed! The Grey wolf is now a stable member in the cicrle of life.


02. A volcano errupted in Honalulu. This actually is a good thing. There is a specific seed in which is only opened at extreamly high temperatures. (much higher that boiling) Scientists estimate it has been thousands of years (though no one really knows) since the plant has been able to reproduce. Also this plant emmits almost twice the carbon dioxide that a regular plant and scientists believe this may be one of the main conponents in fighting global warming, and greenhous gas emmisions.


03.Yah know how we are always scared of earth quakes? Well...A new, look at the Earth's crust suggests that the contine including the one underlying the Western United States -- are not completely rigid after all. When actually viewed on very long time scales, they can react with surprising fluidity scientists have reported. That means we are not sitting on the verg of our earth collapsing in front of us....THANK JESUS!


Hope you enjoyed My encouraging earth facts!
