This had good information but very little, it told how extrusive rocks are formed.

Great information but it is a little short.

Igneous volcanic rock and it forms when lava from inside the earth flows out

The little ice age was a small period in time the the climate went down

Cute clam

strange but interesting

This is utterly useless to what we are studying. This shows how a clam swims, and we are learning about geology.

The website shows how you can take ashes and make them into diamonds and jewelry

I think that it is crazy that the temperature has to go up to 5,000 degrees Fahrenheit! Then the carbon turns into graphite. This process takes a few weeks. I think that it's very cool that you can turn ashes into diamonds.

This is really interesting how cremations can turn into diamonds with very high pressure and heat but I don't think this is really relevant to our unite. If you get one you can always keep your grandma close to your heart...literally.

Weird

When you think of having an adventure spreading a loved ones ashes, you never think of turning them into diamonds. Weird. But really cool

It's definitely weird, but it's interesting how you can always carry your loved ones with you.

An unconformity is when there is a missing layer in the rocks

Its a good site that goes through a lot of different rock layers.

The oldest rocks in Colorado are 1.7-1.8 billion years old.

This website contained very useful information about the front range. I didn't feel it had a lot to do with are topic.

A good rock formation sight.

Great site, very relevant. The info on the front range was good. A little off topic though.

I like it, but it is kinda long, good job.

This sia website on Conifers. I enjoy the Wikipedia websites because it gives a timeline from when they existed to when they went extinct. I know that we learned about conifers a little while back, but I was browsing the internet and this was a cool website for science. Also any of the past information that we learned will be helpful on the project. Angela East posted this.

Oohh sorry, I thought that I was the only one that posted this website.

Wikipedia had useful information which will be helpful in the future, when we reach it in class.

This website is very good and definitely relates to what we are talking about in class. It talks about the Great Dying and I rethought the graph was good.

This web sight was was really helpful. I think we mostly covered all of this information in class but gives nice little details.

How to make Diigo show up in Safari on an iPad

Step 3 is confusing. I didn't know what to copy. I had to ask Mr. Gatlin. This is some good information about how to highlite the websites though.

Thank you so much for the help I will use that but it is a little confusing because I am not teccy

Rachel and I found this short video giving a little bit of information on the western interior seaway.

This website tell you all about Mosasaurs.

Very helpful, little hard to read though.

A very descriptive site on Mosasaurs.

Check it out, y'all

Although emerging markets are a very large portion of the problem, they are necessary for any solution. Most books that talk about the environment has the West as the starting point. This is a very understandable starting place. For many decades the United States of America has been the largest polluter, contributing to the problem more than any other country in the world. Europe, has environmental laws to negotiate new and different solutions. Now Europe and the United States of America are only in supporting roles. Now the leaders are China and India. China emites nearly half of current global emissions. India accounted for 83% of the worldwide increase of carbon emissions from the years 2000-2011. Global warming started with industrialized countries. But, it can only end with developing ones. India and China are fully engrossed in growth of the countries. To continue to feed this growth they are building more and more coal-fired power stations, which is a very bad form of energy. The cities in China and India fume smoke and the rivers are catching on fire. Global warming will effect developing countries very much more then rich ones. A little bit because tropical and sub tropical areas are much more sensitive to warming and cooling temperatures. Richer areas can pay for better flood control and drought-resistent seeds that poor countries. William Cline, an economist, estimated a rise of merely 2.5% in temperature wold cause a 6% decrees in agriculture productivity in the United States of America. but in India there would be a 38% decrees. China and India are very vulnerable. New economic giants (such as China and India) will have to push rich countries to make more environmental compromises. Messrs Mattoo and Submaranian estimate that if China and India want to cut their carbon emissions by 30% in 2020, their production rate would fall 6-7% and the manufactured exports would be effected much more than that. Poor countries cannot handle the issues as well.

This is a really good website to learn about Earth overall in general. It gives the information about some of earths main tectonic plates(which is color coated so you know which one is which, a size comparison to the moon, which can involve a little bit of math. It also talks about the terrain/surface, weather and climate, and atmosphere.

By the way I posted this website

They talke about camels a little towards the end of the video.

Describes a little bit of what conglomerate rock is

A little information that describes these giant trees, plus pictures!

A little bit about the Eocene at the bottom
