Uneven Distributions of Natural Resources


There are uneven distributions of natural resources because tectonic plates move around, distributing the natural resources unevenly. Natural gas is distributed unevenly because the plants and animals die. Once in awhile, the tectonic plates move and bury the dead plants and animals underneath another tectonic plate. The heat and pressure under the many layers form the natural gas. Another example of uneven distribution due to tectonic plates is geothermal energy. The most geothermal activity is on the edges of tectonic plates. When tectonic plates move, it can create volcanoes and ridges which can have great geothermal activity. Volcanoes erupt and have geothermal energy, all because tectonic plates moved. A third example of uneven distribution due to tectonic plates is copper. When tectonic plates go under another they shift towards magma creating heat and pressure. When the tectonic plates start to melt, it gets further away from the core, cooling it down. Eventually, it breaks, sending pieces into the sea. Those pieces cool down and crystallize, creating copper. One final example of tectonic plates distributing naturals resources unevenly is oil. Tectonic plates decide where oil is located. When tectonic plates move, it distributes the oil unevenly. That is why there are uneven distributions of natural resources because of tectonic plates.

Patience is Key


         You are probably wondering, "Why is she showing me a picture of a waiting room?" Well, you may see it as a waiting room, but it shows much more about my myself and my life.
         For me, life is all about waiting. It may seem ridiculous, but all my life I have had to wait. I waited to see what I got on a test. I waited to find out who my teacher was for school. I waited to find out where I was moving. I waited to see my dad when he was deployed, but it was all about patience. When I see this waiting room or any waiting room, I am reminded of the patience I had to see my scores, my teacher, my next location, and my dad. This waiting room waits for me to arrive. It patiently waits for my return, as I wait to return to it because even if the wait is 5 minutes or one whole day, I will always be there patiently waiting.
