On the island of Indonesia thousands of people have evacuated and taken over due to two volcanoes rumbling on the islands of Bali and Ambae. It is said that both volcanoes are showing signs of erupting in pure coincidence. I agree that it is a coincidence that they are both rumbling at the same time because they both sit on the Pacific Ring of Fire and since they are two somewhat close volcanoes many reactions could be happening under the ground causing not just one but both volcanoes to erupt at any time. I think that even though it has been years since the volcanoes have erupted I think that over those year build up of rocks and chemical reactions have occurred and now it is all ready to erupt and start over again somewhat like a cycle.

    I agree with you that it is somewhat like a cycle. Also I think that since they are close to each other that it will cause them both to react due to the underground erosion being so close. I would have evacuated out of there real fast too if two volcanoes were erupting near me.

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
