The Air Can Be Cleaner Than It Is Now There are people who believe that “fresh air” is an unlimited source. I personally used to think like that when I was a young. As I grew older‚ I learned that a simple thing‚ such as fresh air is infinitely available‚ is not true. The fact is‚ the troposphere‚ which is like a wall that covers the earth‚ is the only air that is available to us. No fresh air comes in‚ and no polluted air escapes (Harris‚ par. 3). Ironically‚ a giant thing like spaceship could

Scientists have been studying animal intelligence since the 1960s and most are coming to the conclusion that animals are smarter than most previously thought.

But it’s hard not to wonder whether simply knowing of the event can really stop somebody from doing something like this a second time around in a country as developed and opportunistic as the United States. Our country is a melting pot of people of many different races‚ sexualities‚ and ethnicities. Though this

We later learn that his overwhelming sorrow over a lost lover has prevented him from writing about their relationship and its demise.
