Moon was alone—alone, in spite of all the stars in the sky. Although they danced and twinkled and whispered sweet things across time to one another, they spoke not a word to that cratered outcast that nestled itself so close to that which was called Earth.

earth’s crust which are caused by a number of factors. The movement of earths plate is what constitutes an earthquake and leads to various effects to the part of the earth it is experienced. The magnitude or the measure of the effects that an earthquake can cause is measured by a scale called Richter scale. To start with, the first cause of earthquakes is the release of undue pressure that builds in the underground rocks of the earth.

The Earth is going to be a very different place 250 million years from now. Africa is going to smash into Europe as Australia migrates Southward to merge with Asia. Meanwhile the Atlantic Ocean will probably widen for a spell before it reverses course and later disappears, forming a cluster of land at the median of Earth and expanding the vastness of the oceans.Two hundred and fifty million years ago the landmasses of Earth were clustered into one supercontinent dubbed Pangea. After looking at this

religion. The sky is Nut, the atmosphere is Shu, the earth is Geb, and the sun god is Re (Schnittjer, 2006). Each of these gods work with one another to create a different aspect of the creation such as day and night and the earth and the sky.

Can the Damage on Earth be reversed? Human activities occurring every day have had colossal damage to our planet Earth from the past, and these activities are perpetual. The infinity aspect of these perverse human doings implies continuous damage to the Earth. These activities include air pollution as a result of industrial emissions, water pollution caused by industrial waste products, noise pollution, and soil pollution. These damages yield adverse effects such as global warming, climate change

The movie, The Day After Tomorrow, is actually about the issue of global warming which caused the temperature to increase the earth’s atmosphere where polar ice caps are melting and thus, increasing the water levels of oceans. Then flooding occurs, and other climatic disturbances occur all over the world as well. This sets the stage for a new Ice Age. At first, I thought it’s a movie about weather, dramatic and a disaster movie. It provides suspense and a prediction of a climate shift which is going
