WINTER WARMING?!
Earth is a cool place to be… until you start digging deeper. This month sixth grade learned about the Earth’s layers, from core to crust, and the magma that can be stirred up beneath the Earth’s surface. When there’s too much tectonic activity, things start heating up! Earthquakes and volcanic eruptions occur due to moving plates.
Did you know that a single volcanic eruption can affect the entire globe? When Mt. Pinatubo (in the Philippines) erupted in 1991, debris such as dust, gas and ash traveled to the atmosphere and spread around the world, affecting the global climate.
