10 South American Animals That Get A Bad Rap
South America is widely considered to house some of the most incredible and most dangerous wildlife on the planet. While the former is certainly true, the latter may be overstated somewhat, as we’ll promptly examine today. This, though, isn’t to say that being careful is wrong; wild animals will always pose a threat and some on this list have seriously injured or even killed people. What’s also true, however, is that their reputation is almost always worse than the reality and they’re not an imminent threat to constantly worry about, especially not when basic precautions are taken.

What Is The Lifespan Of Our Planet
If the brightness of our star increases by 10%, the earth will no longer be in the habitable zone surrounding our star. When the Sun stops burning hydrogen in its core, Mars will be outside our habitable zone and we will be too hot to keep water on our surface. Like all things in the universe, our planet Earth will fizzle out.

‘Mummy, how long is it until we get there?’ ‘Not too long now,’ Soleil said softly, turning around to look at her young daughter sat harnessed in the rear seat of the car. She could see that Lana was tired, and reached back to gently brush away hair covering her daughter’s small, plump face.

Kin
Her strength was gone, her abdomen ached. It took everything she had to escape, but she knew if she could just pull herself over to the shattered street she could breathe, if only for a moment. With one last effort, she hoisted herself over the ridge, the weight of her exhaustion throwing her on her back. She laid there slumped on the cold wet ridge, the sun beginning to retreat behind the jagged horizon. The rain pitter-pattered across her body, rinsing the once stark white sneakers her mom gifted for her birthday, now soiled and unrecognizable. Her breath was heavy, now beginning to slow, not from relief but from necessity. It was finally quiet on the road except for the rain hitting the bent street lamp above her in rapid succession. Thunder continued to roar above, but the frustrated bellows of her pursuers had stopped. She could no longer hear them. As she realized this, she took one moment for herself, closed her eyes and breathed deeply. As she caught her breath, old memories began firing in her mind, like the fireworks from the 4th of July. She laughed softly embracing this simple moment. With her eyes still closed, she analyzed her situation. "I got it, I got it…" She continued breathing heavily as she patted her bag feeling for the large rectangular outline. "Okay. Okay." Celebrating with a big exhale. She lied there for another minute. She opened her eyes, sat up, and almost mechanically moved her arms and legs checking to make sure everything was still working properly. "I don't think anything is broken. It's cold-- why am I sitting in this muddy water?" She asked herself. Suddenly alert, her eyes widened "They're still looking for me. I can't stay here; I have to move." She rolled over sitting on her hands and knees, and as her survival instinct kicked in she pushed out several heavy puffs of air through her nose like a determined bull going for the red cloth.

The Sea Wall
On Saturday, as is my wont, I strolled up to the waterfront and contemplated the end of the world. I walked out of my cold, gray apartment block and set out down Ocean Road. In the distance, I spotted the familiar sight of a giant wall. I have walked this path for many years, but the sight of that tall, gray wall never fails to fill me with sadness. Our greatest achievement. Our greatest tragedy.

Scorch
California, varied and fine, became the 31st state in record time. Dusty Mexican territory, until the signing of the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo on February 1848, ending what was known as the Mexican-American war. Gold was discovered just nine days before, in Sutter’s Mill, bringing wealth and population to California. Forty-niners, as the gold seekers were known, came in rushes in 1849 and beyond.

Without You
Without You Darkness fell over the great forest, laid in ruins and covered in soot. A giant moon hung above the trees, the stars all but blanketed in a permanent black fog. On a Thursday, nearly a year earlier, Earth was pulled out of orbit into a judder. Violent solar flares ignited the surface and fossil fuel reserves burst into the clouds. Whole cities toppled over as land heaved up and organisms below the water perished as rivers ran dry and oceans evaporated. Out of the few who made it underground, a scanter lot lived beyond a few months, having neglected to relocate near an aquifer.

She Smelled Like Lilacs
Mankind had ignored the wakeup call of the Covid virus and worldwide drought. Then came 2033 when half the world’s population perished to extreme drought, weather and disease. Many who had survived, violently lost their lives in the nuclear war that followed as world leaders vied for supremacy and control of shrinking resources. Those with the ability to influence change, chose instead to prefer profit over hope for a future for their children and grandchildren.
