Geography ;The Early Earth

The Early Earth 

 
The early Earth was like a blurred patch of scalding rock and chocking fumes . But the space , in which it was floating , was  cold so the surface of the EARTH also began to cold , So the surface of the Earth also began to cool down . Approximately 3,000 million years ago , the Earth was cool enough for land masses to form . Even so , our planet remained an alien world for the next several hundred million years . Rafts of solid rock drifted in the magma like dark ice floes .  

Atmosphere ,Weather and Oceans
-) Gases , carbon dioxide , nitrogen , gusted out from the cooling rock and enveloped the planet in a blistering atmosphere devoid of oxygen . As the Earth cooled, the steam began to condense into water , and the water ran down wherever the rocks were lower , which perhaps made the first oceans . These first oceans may have been short-lived . Space rubble 
left over from the birth of the planets bombarded Earth continuously .
   
The greatest impact might have boiled the oceans away, forcing the process of cooling and condensation , which in turn gave rise to weather conditions , clouds ,thunderstorms and rain . The rain finally filled the ocean basins . 


The Eons and Eras           
     
The Earth's history has been divided into geological time units like Eons and Eras , which further break up into Periods and Epochs . The first Eon is called the Hadean , during which the Earth's surface was under severe volcanism due to the large heat  flow and geothermal gradient . By the beginning of the next Eon , Archaean , the Earth had cooled significantly and primordial life to evolve .

Global Warming

            G lobal W arming can be known as the increase in the average temperature of the earth's atmosphere due to different causes . According to scientists , its temperature is gradually increasing mainly because of human activities . Now this essay presents some of its causes , effects , and preventive measures and solutions .             Some of the major causes of global warming include ejection of unwanted gases or greenhouse gases due to human activities and volcanic eruptions . It has been estimated that average global surface temperature is likely to rise a further 1.1 to 6.4℃ during the 21st century as the result  of ejaculation of the gases . On Earth , the major greenhouse gases involve water vapor , carbon dioxide ( CO2 ) , ozone ( O 3 ) and nitrous oxide ( N 2O) . These gases are produced by burning solid wastes , fossil fuels , firewood and modern farming . Similarly , automobiles and factories are o...
