There are so many reasons to love where life decided to flourish. This is the only known planet in the Universe known to have life... at this time. Our planet has everything we need in limitation to allow us to live our everyday lives. The trees use only the power of light to turn one of our biggest killers (CO2) into our life sustaining breath.
Go out this Earth Day and plant a tree, garden, flowers you know... whatever tickles your pickle! Let's keep the Earth beautiful and allow it to keep its life sustaining properties. I'm going to plant black beans... in the rain... Haha! I think it would be a great idea to start community gardens all over the state and as long as you contribute to its growth you may benefit from it. That's one of my topics for when I become governor. Lol
Share in the comments if you did something today to help keep our planet clean and healthy! Or commit to something that will benefit us all!
Do other planets celebrate Earth Day????
This Earth Day reminds me of a recent article that has been published about a far away (500 Light-years) planet that appears to be very Earth-esk. Through large telescopes that emit different X-rays and gamma rays scientists are able to see that the planet has abundant water and rocky terrain. They are also able to see that the planet is in the habitable area around its star. These are the same features that support life on our planet, so who’s to say that there may not be life on that planet? It is also known that the star that provides light and warmth to that planet is on its end stages of life; meaning it emits higher levels of radiation to its planets, that's kind of a bummer.
You can read more about this great discovery HERE at my favorite science page.
Thinking years in the future would you ever volunteer to be the first to explore possible life sustaining planets or take the task of mining distant planets for resources? Share your comments and feedback in the comments below.
