Biased Current Event: Yellowstone Supervolcano

In this particular article, researchers from various colleges and research communities like: Arizona State University, University of Utah, and Yellowstone Observatory. These researchers have reported that there is no immediate danger to the country as it is in a state of rest. However Arizona State University researchers have said that, based on their new conclusions, drawn from the minerals surrounding the volcano, the volcano could erupt much faster than expected. NASA also wants to try to prevent the super-volcano from destroying the US by trying to cool the magma before it spills over. This seems to be unreliable because of the information that has been circulating over the past few months. We have been told that this volcano could  potentially send the world into a new ice age, now there is all this information that the volcano is a very small problem. In addition to the skewed information this article is from Fox news, which is notorious for taking a republican or conservative view on most issues.

    i agree, this seems to be trying to downplay an issue that very well could have a serious effect on the comfy world we live in.

    The super volcano could potentially destroy the entire US and I do not think this issue should be taken lightly. If NASA has a plan to help postpone the eruption then I think that they should try anything they can do. This is an important issue for the entire country.

Dual-fuel vehicles

A recent study shows that dual- fuel vehicles are benefiting the population but, turns out they are costing the environment. While substituting gasoline for ethanol gases, it causes an increase of ultra fine particle matter, with a 30% increase of atmospheric concentration. The problem is that they are less then 50 nanometers in diameter. The nano particles are also not track or regulated by the environmental agencies. We inhale these gases everyday, inhaling ethanol. The most practical way to reduce greenhouse gases is using electric, hybrid and biofuel care.   https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2017/08/170828124546.htm

Acid Zone in Chesapeake Bay Found

     According to the University of Delaware, the Chesapeake Bay is becoming acidic as it has gone to 7.4 pH from an average of 8.2. The oxidation of ammonia and hydrogen sulfide may be the factor that is leading to the higher acidity levels in coastal oceans, but it can eventually lead to more of open oceans. Naturally the waters of the Chesapeake Bay have a regulatory system that holds back the increase of acidity levels in the area, and this works as the dissolving of living shells, non-living aragonite, and calcite minerals. Though nature has a path to keep the waters in the Chesapeake Bay, humans should take more care of our Earth as we have a role in polluting the water and rising the acidity levels in coastal oceans. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2017/08/170828093737.htm
