Erosion

Erosion is a big problem around the world today.

Untitled Slide

The world as we know it is crumbling away...

Untitled Slide

One of the main causes for erosion is soil composition loss. When the soil loses elements such as roots, the soil becomes loose and erodes.

Untitled Slide

Wind, rain, and glacial ice are another cause of erosion. These causes take more time to erode the earth because they do less damage, but the damage is spread over a long period of time.

Untitled Slide

The biggest contributor are the natural elements and the problem is the erosion of the land. The scientists benefit because they need to observe Erosion to find a way to stop it.

Untitled Slide

Erosion had many effects on the environment and also human life. Houses may fall or break apart if the land under their foundation erodes away.

Untitled Slide

One impact of erosion is property/environment loss. When erosion occurs, the land falls away from the mainland and breaks down.

Untitled Slide

Niagara Falls is slowly moving backwards because of erosion caused by the massive amount of water rushing over the rocks.

Untitled Slide

one farmer lost his potatoes because of erosion. The potatoes were up rooted because all the soil was removed by erosion

Untitled Slide

Haiku Poem

Earth is in trouble
Erosions is now the cause
We should fix it now

Untitled Slide

The World will last if people prevent erosion

Untitled Slide

There are multiple solutions for erosion. One of the solutions is planting vegetation to help hold together the soil. Another important solution to erosion is retaining walls. A retaining wall is a wall made to withstand the elements to keep the land from eroding

Untitled Slide

New changes such as laws that make it so if something is being eroded it has to be stopped by the owners of the land to keep the earth nice

Untitled Slide

Make sure that all the places erosion can occur are well vegetated or have another way of stopping erosion such as a barrier that blocks the elements. Be aware that this is affecting everyone even if you don't know it.

Untitled Slide

Our class should help bring awareness to erosion because erosion is affecting people worldwide. Erosion is a serious topic that takes away environments that animals need to live, and it also affects humans because the erosion causes land underneath houses to fall away causing the house to break apart as it falls.
