Few fields of study can play such a profound role in protecting people\u2019s lives on a daily basis, whether you realize it or not. And few can bring together so many disparate ideas, from sciences to social sciences to humanities to the arts, like the study of the Earth can.<br \/>\n&#8230;<br \/>\nHere are some of the ways that taking a course in the geology will impact your life for the rest of it.<br \/>\n&#8230;<br \/>\n<strong>Climate:<\/strong> Now, so far I\u2019ve talked about all the fun parts of geology. However, if you\u2019re looking for work that is important to you, your family and society across the planet, geology is the place to be. First off, geology is ground zero for understanding climate change across the history of Earth. We\u2019ve been studying the variation in the planet\u2019s ecosystems for two centuries now (heck, paleontology helped start the discipline) and can look back billions of years to see how the climate has varied. This gives us that evidence to show how much our current climate is likely in a state of distress. Geology is also how we can understand what the impact of climate change will be on our planet, both in the short- and long-term.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Elon Musk speech: &#8216;The dumbest experiment in history&#8217; &#8212; with thanks to Mr. Joe Byerwalter for this resource &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Also see: Dear College Students: You Should Take Geology &#8212; from wired.com by Erik Klemetti Excerpt: Few disciplines in today\u2019s world play such a significant role in how society operates and what [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[314,473,143,287,263,95,3,419,458,44,311,480,66,454,38,321,11],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-56619","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-asia","category-canada","category-disruption","category-europe","category-geography-geology","category-global-globalization","category-higher-education","category-ideas-teaching","category-india","category-pace-of-change","category-presentations","category-society","category-student-related","category-the-downsides-of-technology","category-uk","category-united-states","category-vision-possibilities"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/danielschristian.com\/learning-ecosystems\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/56619","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/danielschristian.com\/learning-ecosystems\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/danielschristian.com\/learning-ecosystems\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/danielschristian.com\/learning-ecosystems\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/danielschristian.com\/learning-ecosystems\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=56619"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/danielschristian.com\/learning-ecosystems\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/56619\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":56621,"href":"https:\/\/danielschristian.com\/learning-ecosystems\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/56619\/revisions\/56621"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/danielschristian.com\/learning-ecosystems\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=56619"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/danielschristian.com\/learning-ecosystems\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=56619"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/danielschristian.com\/learning-ecosystems\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=56619"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
