Earth's Dynamic Dance of Destruction and Creation

The ground beneath your feet is literally surfing on molten rock right now. It’s called plate

tectonics, where massive puzzle pieces of the Earth are constantly smashing together or ripping

apart. When rocks get stressed—yeah, they actually deal with stress—they either bend into

huge mountains or snap to cause earthquakes. But the drama isn't just underground. We’re burning ancient

fossils for energy and destroying soil that takes hundreds of years to form. The Earth is basically

a giant recycling machine that never stops moving, so we better keep up before it decides

to shake us off.
