Learn how the Earth’s systems make all life possible.  An appreciation of the natural world can be an antidote to the artificial stresses caused by the growing onslaught of technology in our lives. Human minds can conjure infinite possibilities, but ultimately nature is reality.

Gain knowledge of the natural world by learning about the forces that shape our planet. Understand how mountains form, continents move, oceans circulate, earthquakes occur, volcanoes erupt, climates change, species evolve and how humans and all living things are supported by as well as transform the planet.  

Each week we will examine the development and function of one of the Earth’s four systems: the air (atmosphere), oceans (hydrosphere), crust (lithosphere) and life (biosphere).  Emphasis will be on discovering how they all interact to create the world we live in.  See the beauty of your natural surroundings with greater appreciation, joy and wonder by better understanding the amazing planet we call home.
