Fire & Ice - The History of Earth

SEK 25.00

The earth is our home – our only home for the foreseeable future. It’s where we get our soil, freshwater, metals, and minerals. It’s where we get the energy to fuel our way of life. To be able to find these resources and utilize them sustainably we have to understand our planet – starting with the past.

By studying rocks and fossils we add valuable chapters to the history of life on earth. We can also learn how and why the Earth's climate has changed over time which is crucial in understanding human-caused climate change. One will discover that this habitable planet that we call home has gone through both fire and ice.

When we recognize how human activities have changed the environment we might be able to avoid severe changes in the future. Lastly, we can use our knowledge of the history of Earth to better understand other planets in our solar system and more recently beyond it.
