CHANGING THE EARTH'S

- FACE.

What Man is Doing.

Some remarkable figures are given by Dr. R. L. Sharlock in the April issue of the Geographical Journal as to human agency in Many years ago Sir Archibald alrering the face of the earth.

Geikio calculated that erosion by the elements was denuding the surface of the British Isles at the rates of 3.72in. ip 2,000 years. Such reduction in the height of the land and consequent shallowing of the gens is vast importance in time as reckoned by goelogists, 'but in unlikely to disturb buman beings who plan their future in decaden. Dr. Shelock states that the quantity of rock removed by man in various kinds of excavation in Great Britain is about 40,000 million cubic yards, of which approximately half has been taken lout at the surface and half !mined. By far the greater of this gnawing of the earth's crust has taken place in the last con- tury, and if spread over the whole area uniformly would equal ́a de- nudation of nearly sin. In other words, buman agency in modern times is at least five times as active în denudation as all natural

Still more curious is the case of" cities which are gradually rising on their own waste, the average elevation in London being a foot in the cen- tury. But there are local varia- tions, and when sewers were be- ing taken across the City, Wal brook was found to stand on thirty feet of the debris of cen- turies The changes produced in the rafural circulation of water are even more striking. Pump- jing cut the brine in the salt areas of Cheshire is causing local disturbances, but is also sinking largearcas below the level o the sex, and near Middles- rough, in Yorkshire, the danger- point is being reached.
