How does Earth maintain a constant level of oxygen?



It doesn’t! The oxygen level of the planet has varied quite dramatically in the last 500 million years. It was 35 per cent during the Carboniferous period, around 300 million years ago; as the climate, cooled and land plants died off, oxygen fell to as low as 12 per cent by the beginning of the Triassic. Back then, the air at sea level would have felt thinner than at the top of the Alps today.


Burning fossil fuels has reduced oxygen levels very slightly – about 0.057 per cent over the last 30 years. Deforestation only has a small effect because when rainforest is cut down, other plants are usually grown in its place. But it’s marine phytoplankton (plant plankton), rather than trees, that produces about 75 per cent of atmospheric oxygen. Global warming will have a significant impact on phytoplankton, which is a much more serious threat to oxygen levels.

Modern readers often misunderstand the word "political." Aristotle was not referring to political parties, elections, or i...

🌿 Reverse Manifestation

🌿 PERSONAL GROWTH • MINDSET • SELF IMPROVEMENT Reverse Manifestation Why Letting Go Can Bring You Closer to Success, Peace, and Fulfillment 🌱 Let Go πŸ’™ Trust 🧘 Inner Peace ✨ Purpose Have you ever noticed that sometimes the harder you chase something, the further away it seems to move? In today's fast-moving world, we are constantly encouraged to achieve more, earn more, become more, and move faster. Ambition can certainly motivate progress, but when ambition becomes desperation, the pursuit itself can begin producing stress, anxiety, disappointment, and emotional exhaustion.

The central idea is surprisingly simple: work toward what you want without allowing your happiness to depend entirely upon obtain...
