Earth - a beautiful place to live and explore!
This short post was prompted by the many news reports celebrating Sir David Attenborough, now 100, as being the calm, trusted voice of the natural world. Over the years it has been fascinating to watch and listen to him.
Earth is a beautiful place to live and explore, it has a unique set of characteristics that makes it suitable to support life as we know it, and the population of Earth is over 8 billion people.
Earth is the third planet from the Sun and is the largest of the four terrestrial planets namely Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars. Order of the planets from the Sun: Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto (the dwarf planet).
It is perhaps difficult to comprehend that we are all traveling around the Sun at an average velocity of 107,182 kilometers per hour. And at the same time, we are also spinning with an enormous speed – that could be 1000 miles per hour depending on your position on Earth.
Perhaps it is also interesting to note that more than 95% of Earth’s ocean are still unexplored.

Richard Attenborough is just the best. He should never, ever die for all he's taught us.
ReplyDeleteHappy 100th to David!

ReplyDeleteI love his voice and watching his nature documentaries. I think they should be required viewing for young people.
ReplyDeleteWe need to take care of the earth for those who follow us.
ReplyDeleteIt's surreal, isn't it, Jan? And yes we do need to start taking care of our earth. Have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteIf a small, blue orb of water with a fragile atmosphere, and dotted with areas of land with forests and glaciers suddenly appeared, hovering in a field somewhere nearby, we would flock to it and worship it in awe and with reverence. We would proclaim it the most mystical and magical thing we ever beheld. We would protect it, cherish it, and defend it with our lives, and do everything within our power to preserve it.
ReplyDeleteThink about it.
I had no idea that more than 95% of Earth’s ocean are still unexplored.That's amazing but also hopeful. Man hasn't gotten there to pollute it.
ReplyDeleteSuch a lovely post ♥️
ReplyDeleteEarth is our home and we must remember that any damage to our home can cause chaos in our lives!
I forgot the order of the planets,thank for reminding 👍🥰
