The Planet We Live

[SOLD]

The Planet We Live is part the Geodynamics series. The Air We Breathe – The Planet We Live. A collection of heavy textured acrylic pieces depicting just what is involved in creating and sustaining our air and the planet we live. You will see our atmosphere, tectonic plates, and our oceans. Tectonic forces and photosynthesis are responsible for creating the majority of the air in our atmosphere. Tectonic forces, which also create mountains, volcanoes, earthquakes, and tsunamis, created the air billions of years ago. Volcanoes near active tectonic plate boundaries also release large amounts of nitrogen into the air. All of this continues to evolve and sustain our planet. SKU: 24-047
