How would you reply to someone who argues that we should not worry about the effects that human activities have on natural syste
ms because natural succession will heal the wounds of human activities and restore the balance of nature? Please type it, because hand written is sometimes difficult to read. Your personal opinion
It is partially true, "life finds a way" but human activities have already made some irreversible damage to the world.
Explanation:
In a Hypotethic scenario in which Humans are extinct nature Will eventually, start succession processes in urban areas and after many years depending on the erosional resistance of the materials nature will erase many of the buildings around the world ( 500 years for metal). Water bodies will eventually decontaminate trough the water cycle and be filled with organisms, contamination due to petrol can also be reverted through natural chemical processes with oxygen.
But human activities like mining are irreversible, for the earth, it is impossible to recover its shape, the materials already extracted and soil nutrients that ran out due to the use of chemicals.
The acceleration of the climate change due to human activities is for sure the biggest wound we have made to the world, this is an irreversible acceleration to a natural process.
As divergence is defined as constructive plate boundary with opening in between the two slabs of tectonic rock being an heavy and oceanic plate the divergence is found mostly in where the new lava flows are being created and the newer rock are thus located near to the surface of the ridges as a result of the upwelling of hot molten lava from the magma chambers below.
Other examples being the mid-Atlantic ridge, red sea ridge, and eastern pacific rise.
And other popular ridges in the world that have lava flowing from the base and thus demarcate the divergent boundaries with continental crustal movement based on some sentiments form below, as slab push and slab pull.
Air Mass is a volume of air characterized by temperature and water vapor content and stretched for 100 kilometers.
Classified according to the latitude and the source regions, like cold air mass found in cooler polar regions and warm masses form over the hotter and drier regions of continents and maritime air mass are found at the seas and oceanic masses.
As air mass differs based on there densities they have humid and temperature conditions and can be modified in various ways, an increase or decrease of temperature is also affected by the large scale environmental conditions.
