Dynamic Earth

Autor(es): Machado, Maria Margarida
Every day human activities involve interaction with our planet Earth. Everything around us is built upon the Earth, grows on the Earth, or depends on the environments and internal dynamics of the Earth to some degree. Indeed, Earth’s dynamic processes have strong influence on our society today as they have had at any time in human history, providing both major opportunities as well as challenges. Therefore, the knowledge about the Earth is the key to develop an informed citizenry and a global awareness of a common Planet and a common future. For example, dynamic processes during interaction between the tectonic plates that make up the outer "skin" of Earth provide us with the valuable mineral deposits we need to develop our society, or the arable land and fertile soils needed to sustain it.
