Terra Earth Terre

Earth (otherwise known as the world,[n 5] in Greek: Γαῖα Gaia,[n 6] or in Latin: Terra[26]) is the third planet from the Sun, the densest planet in the Solar System, the largest of the Solar System's four terrestrial planets, and the only astronomical object known to harbor life.

“The body’s weakness comes from illnesses, while the heart’s weakness comes from sins. And just as the body does not taste the delights of food when it is ill, the heart does not taste the delights of worship when it is sinful.”

— Dhul-Nun al-Misri

Scaling to 46 years, humans have been here 4 hours, the industrial revolution began 1 minute ago, and in that time we’ve destroyed more than half the world’s forests.

This is NOT Sustainable.

Top to bottom - Pillow Structures, flame structures, and the last two pictures showing Ball structures caused by different sediment densities.

Ball and pillow structures - Often occur with interbedding between sandstones and mudstones and are the result of physical shock applied to these unconsolidated sediments. Lobes from the overlying sediment are broken off often during earthquakes, volcanoes, rapid sedimentation rates, or meteorite impacts and drift down into the underlying sediments. Ball structures are still attached, whereas pillow structures have become completely detached into the other sediment.

Next, flame structures are also a type of deformation in unlithified sediments. The weight of the overlying bed forces sediments up from the underlying bed. In order for this to occur, both sediment layers need to be saturated with water, the overlying bed must have a higher density than the underlying bed, or pressure differences between the two, and lastly the beds have to undergo additional stress usually in the form of an earthquake, volcanic activity, meteorite activity.
