Carbon footprint
My carbon footprint is 8.8 tonnes a year. That is alot. My carbon footprint compared to China is very high. China footprint is O.8. My land footprint is 1.9 hectares a year. That is not much. China land footprint is O.7. That is not much compared to mine. My tree footprint is 3.8 trees a year. My footprint compared to the U.S is 4.2. China tree footprint is O.6. My tree footprint is high compared to China. My water footprint is 1741.6 cubic meter a year. I use up alot of water. Other countries footprint average is much lower. The U.S average is higher but not by much. My daily decisions require the support of 2.2 earths. This is my footprint.

This scientist Paul Brakefield is a world authority of spots. His lab is filled with most widely questions asked,The beauty of the butterfly to behavioral ecologists is that its wing spots, bands, and other splotches play dramatic roles in mating, outwitting predators, and other matters critical to the insect's evolution. . Now, they're beginning to decipher it. Much as computer screens form images, butterfly wings use tiny, single-color flecks that add up to the big pattern. Each minuscule, colored scale comes from a single cell, which dies after it's made its pixel. The colors come from mixtures of pigments—flavonoids, melanins, and pterins—that are widespread among organisms.I've never heard of the many different types of butterflies and never knew there were different species and kinds of butterflies.Most of the world's 17,000 butterfly species sport distinctive wings, some as patterned as embroidery samplers, some so iridescent that that a butterfly's bright flash at ground level has caught the eye of passengers in small airplanes overhead.
Butterflies are cool animals and they should be studied a WHOLE lot more!!!! What do you think about the idea of studying butterflies???

Evolution
Evolution is when species evolves into something new. When scientists say that a whale used to be a whale look in a million creature that really fascinated me. I really get all the concepts and ideas that scientists have. I can also see how they came up with these theories. I wonder how humans will years.
