Natural Disaster: Tornado

1. How do the earth systems affect each other? The Atmosphere and he Hydrosphere come together in order to make clouds, which makes rain, which helps the biosphere which makes air in the atmosphere and makes photosynthesis. The Biosphere and Geosphere come together to cause things to decompose. The Atmosphere and Biosphere come together to cause photosynthesis. The Biosphere and the Atmosphere make the air. The Hydrosphere and Geosphere come together to cause shaping within the earth. All of these things within the Earth System help us as a species, and also helps the earth have living things on it and maintain it.

2. How can an understanding of environmental science aid in handling natural disasters? Since we’re learning about the natural disasters, we’re also talking about how we can prepare or help with the disaster if it were to happen. Us talking about that is helping us know how to help, by going to organizations, donating, or just providing time to go to the place and help the situation. This could also help other people by us spreading the information and that helps people know they can help or prepare for a situation that might be on the way to where they live.

3. What efforts can we make to create a sustainable future? What we can do is be more clean, don’t use all these fossil fuels or at least lessen what’s being used, we can also quit production of all the fast food places and keep animals in a less green house gas produced way. However, those are more bigger things that most people can’t do much about, but if everyday people eat more healthy, walk places they can walk to, use less plastic, and have reusable things then I think we can help decrease the harm happening to the earth so that these natural disasters don’t happen as harshly as they have been meaning to happen recently because of Global Warming.

Reaction to findings:

I think it was really interesting with finding out how there’s ways that tornados effect everything in the earth, I didn’t think that it would effect the hydrosphere too much but it actually effects it a lot and can cause something more dangerous as well if it’s too high of a category tornado.
