No one knows exactly how the earth began. However, according to a widely accepted theory, it began with a “Big Bang”. Then the earth exploded loudly and produced water vapor and many gases, making the earth’s atmosphere. And then as the earth cooled down, water appeared and stayed on the surface. It was the presence of water that allowed the earth to dissolve harmful gases and acids into the oceans and seas, which made it possible for life to develop. And the appearance of small plants encouraged the development of early shellfish and all sorts of fish. Next, green plants began to grow on land. They were followed by land animals. Later, reptiles appeared for the first time, after which dinosaurs developed. However, they suddenly disappeared. Therefore, mammals rose on the earth. Finally, humans appeared and spread all over the earth. However, they are putting too much carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, making the earth too hot to live on. So whether life will continue on the earth will depend on whether this problem can be solved.
