A Note From The Editors Hello, all. And welcome...to Jurassic Park! Whoops, sorry, wrong platform. Let’s try again. Hello, all and welcome to Wonder, the nature branch - pun intended - of La Cima Magazine. Much better. The editors here at Wonder are passionate about nature, just can’t get enough of it. Our goal is to bring to light various ecological issues that our planet is facing right now. Yup, right now as we speak. No, don’t check outside your window, silly. These issues aren’t typically seen by the average Joe, but they affect everyone. So, by reading this magazine, we hope that you become a little more informed about things like climate change, pollution, bees, Big Foot - well, maybe not that last one. BUT - BUT, this magazine isn’t meant to be a downer, so there’s other little fun things you can read about - there’s even a word search! We’re not expecting you to go out there and solve all these issues. We’re just here to enlighten you and tell you that these things are real and pose a great problem to our planet. And to, you know, show you pictures of pretty trees. We put a lot of blood, sweat, tears, and tears into this magazine. Yes, “tears” is listed twice; there was a lot of crying on our part. Deadlines are no joke, let us tell you. But you know what? We did it for you guys, so you’re welcome. Enjoy. Or don’t. PS: The images with quotes scattered throughout the magazine were taken from the articles themselves, but mostly the quotes come from Greta Thunberg’s speech to the European Union. They are quotes that resonated with us and we hope that they resonate with you.

hat would you do if your child’s room was on fire? What would you do if your house were going up in flames? “Our house is falling apart and our leaders need to start acting accordingly,” said Greta Thunberg a 16-year-old climate activist to a room full of European Union leader, “ The house she speaks of is not one made of brick and mortar, but the global one we all call home. Studies done by NASA show that in the past year a minimum of 12.8 percent of the arctic ice has melted, global temperatures have risen by 1.9 degrees fahrenheit, and the Center for Biological Diversity states that our planet is currently going through its sixth mass extinction of plants and animals a thousand times faster than normal.

“Erosion of fertile topsoil, deforestation of our great forests, toxic air pollution, loss of insects of wildlife, the acidification of our oceans. These are all disastrous trends being accelerated by a way of life that we can in our financially fortunate part of the world see as our right to simply carry on.” Global warming, pollution, deforestation, and the acidification of our oceans are just some of the issues causing a chain reaction that affects every single living thing on this planet.

Our biosphere is being sacrificed so that rich people can live in luxury.

Those in power that deny global warming are also the ones that profit the most from the ongoing destruction of our planet. Oil and gas companies gave over 27 million dollars to the U.S. Congress and Senate in the 2017-2018 cycle, as reported by OpenSecrets.org. The top three contributors in that year were Koch Industries ($10,538,089), Marathon Petroleum ($6,236,278), and Chevron Corp ($5,112,100). Withdrawing from the Paris Agreement, opening national parks for mining, extending the life of coal plants, and making Andrew R. Wheeler the head of the Environmental Protection Agency.

the Obama Administration’s environmental regulations.

“You need to listen to us, we who cannot vote. You need to vote for us, for your children and grandchildren. What we are doing now can soon no longer be undone. In this election you vote for the future living conditions for humankind” Global warming, pollution, climate change, etc. do not care whether or not you believe them to be real. They are affecting our lives right now. We are losing a fight against an enemy that we helped create. We cannot continue to poison the water we all drink from.

We cannot allow corporations to continue to destroy our homes and rob our children of their future. China, the U.S., and India alone were responsible for emitting half of the global carbon dioxide from fuel in 2015 alone. The fact that China has started to refuse our plastic and other recyclables is cause for concern to anyone that cares about the state of our planet. That should be everyone.

“Because how can we expect countries like India or Nigeria to care about the climate crisis if we, who already have everything, don’t care even a second about it.” 11


Yes, it helps to stop buying disposable plastics. It helps to drive your car less or to buy an electric car instead. And it definitely doesn’t hurt to make sure that we have less trash going into our oceans and landfills. But, ultimately, if these giant corporations don’t change how they do things, if we continue to allow our governments to cut down our forests, there will be nothing left for our children. Long gone will be the days of going outside to play. Long gone will be the days of going hiking through the trees or splashing in the rivers and beaches. For those in the older generations that complain now about the youth not being

outdoors enough, there will be no outdoors to play in if we don’t fix these problems. Every year there is an alarming eight million metric tons of plastic going into the ocean, according to www. oceanconservansy.org, and that’s on top of the 150 billion metric tons of plastic that are already polluting our oceans. Not to mention the acidification of the ocean. That’s right, between pollution and global warming, the pH balance of the ocean is so acidic that fish who haven’t died from eating plastic will surely die from the acidity.

“What we do or don’t do right now will affect my entire life and the

lives of my children and grandchildren. What we do or don’t do right now, me and my generation can’t undo in the future.” We have the tools to change these problems. Brilliant, everyday people have come up with affordable and sustainable alternatives to one time use plastics, have engineered robots that could clean the ocean of plastic. We can put out the fire that we have helped stoke all these years. All we need to do is demand that our governments put their citizens before their profits. All we need is to protect our home. All we need to do is act.

Introduction Living in urban cities with light pollution, people are no longer get to see the stars and passing meteors in the sky. Summer is a good time to get away from the city and go camping with family and friends. In summer, we have the longest day and the shortest night of the year because it starts on the solstice in late June. At this time of year, the Milky Way is at its best on a moonless summer night. You can see the Milky Way appear brightest in the sky and run through the center of the Summer Triangle. During mid-August, you can also see the Perseid Meteor Shower. In Southern California, there are few places that you can go and get closer to nature to experience the dark night

Anza Borrego State Park sky. Anza Borrego State Park is the largest state park in California and it is located within the Colorado Desert of Southern California. The name of the park was pairing of Spanish explorer Juan Bautista de Anza and the Spanish word for sheep, Borrego, which referred to the region’s native bighorn sheep.

Joshua Tree National Park Joshua Tree National Park is an American National Park located in Southeastern California, east of Los Angeles. It takes 2 to 3 hours to drive from Los Angeles county to Joshua Tree National Park and it nears San Bernardino and Palm Springs. The name of the park was named for Joshua Trees (Yucca Brevifolia) native to the Mojave Desert. Joshua Tree is a monocot, in the subgroup of flowering plants with grasses and orchids. Many birds, mammals, reptiles, and insects depend on the Joshua Tree for food and shelter, so keep your eyes open for the variety of wild animals and plants. There are many fun activities in Joshua Tree National Park. In here, you can visit two distinct desert ecosystems, the Mojave

and Colorado. You can go hiking, biking, camping, and horseback riding with family and friends, as well as participate in the ranger programs and park paparazzi. At night, you can sleep under the stars and enjoy the night without light pollution. There are several options for campground in Joshua Tree National Park, Black Rock, Cottonwood, Indian Cove, Jumbo Rocks, Ryan, and more. Each one has different views of Joshua Tree. Campgrounds usually fill from October through May and some campgrounds are closed during the summer. You can take advantage of campsite amenities and enjoy camping with your family and friends.

Eureka! Gold, a soft metal

with the power to change lives forever and shape the history of a state, is what drove hundreds of adventurers to the Willow Creek mining district of Alaska. The Willow Creek mining valley, or what is also referred to as Hatcher pass and the Independence mine, was one of Alaska’s largest mining sites, and now one of Alaska’s best tourist attractions. All year round, visitors flock to the Willow Creek valley to learn how one of Alaska’s largest mining operations came to be. Early mining efforts began with placer mining in streams by many adventurers, until Robert Hatcher staked his first claim of gold in the Willow Creek valley in 1906. Years later parts of the valley where Hatcher ventured were renamed as Hatcher’s pass. Immediately following Hatcher’s discovery, the first lode mill began operating and the underground mining of minerals like quartz and gold began being extracted from the Willow Creek mining

district in 1908. Soon, mining companies began to take over. Workers realized that money and more resources were needed to produce more gold and other minerals at a profitable rate. The Willow Creek District at Hatcher’s Pass is one of the state’s largest lode-gold producing districts alone, having produced over 624,000 ounces of gold. What is now referred to as Independence Mine was at one point two mines: the Independence mine on Granite Mountain and the Alaska Free Gold Mine, until both were brought together in 1938 by the AlaskaPacific Consolidated Mining Company. The company quickly established itself in the Willow Creek valley and began to recruit men to work full time. In 1941 during the mining company’s peak year, the company easily employed over 200 miners, blasted dozens of miles of tunnels, and collected 34,416 ounces of gold; today that is worth


$17,208,000 USD. The Alaskan mining company and it’s men also built a campground from the ground up, which consisted of twenty-seven structures. The campground was home to over twenty families at the time and included housing, a restaurant, schoolhouse, mechanical shop, an infirmary, and more. Operations successfully continued until World War II, when the United States War Production Board deemed gold mining as nonessential to the efforts of the war. Following immediately after, mining efforts were brought to a halt as gold mining became an unprofitable

business venture due to post-war inflation. Very few operations at Independence mine were able to continue because of the presence of other profitable minerals. Until January of 1951, when Independence was officially ordered to end all operations and close definitely. The foreclosure was the end of an era for the mining district, but it’s history lives to tell itself. Willow Creek Valley, which consists of the Independence Mines, hiking trails, and the campground was donated as a whole to the state and established as the Independence Mine State Historic Park in 1980. After establishing the state park, a museum was added for guests

to view the origins of the gold rush here at the Willow Creek mining valley. The remains of the Independence mine wither away with every winter season that passes, and only a few of the structures remain standing. In addition, the reoccurrence of Earthquakes or any other natural weather disasters have played a role in the destruction of these historical artifacts. However, the park does a diligent job at ensuring the park is kept up with safety standards and that visitors are constantly reminded to be respectful of the deteriorating historical structures. Reminders are posted throughout the park, as guests are able to interact up close and personal and explore the campgrounds. 27


The park is open for guests to enjoy during every season of the year. During the winter you can ski and snowboard in the valley or you can hike various trails that lead to breathtaking views to rivers, lakes, and lagoons. The park warns that visits should be planned according to the weather. Some of the best views are only available during the summertime, after the majority of the snow has melted and formed lagoons for guests to hike to. Visitors are able to interact with some of the various tunnels systems that were used for transporting tools and other goods from underground, and have an old train system displayed. The park has many amenities for families to enjoy on their next vacation. Alaska is home to many beautiful views, Fairbanks, and hidden treasures. Independence Mine State Historical park falls nothing short of that, displaying Alaska’s rich history year round.

The Death of Bees; The Death of Our Future

Story -Photos By: Samuel Garcia

A

merica has a bee problem: they’re dying. The University of Maryland’s Bee Informed Partnership conducts a survey to see how many bee colonies are dying over the course of the year. Since 2006, beekeepers have lost an average 30% of their bee colonies. This past winter, the Baltimore Sun reports that beekeepers lost 38% of their colonies, the most since 2007 and 2008.

Bees contribute large sums of money to America’s crop production. According to bigthink.com, bees contribute 20 billion dollars to our crop production. Not only that, from an ecological standpoint, bees are the top pollinators, performing 80% of all pollination around the world. In fact, a single bee colony can pollinate 300 million flowers in a day. To say that bees are important is

an understatement, to say the least. “We don’t seem to be making particularly great progress to reduce overall losses,” said Geoffrey Williams via the Baltimore Sun. Williams is an assistant professor of entomology at Auburn University, and he’s also the coauthor of the aforementioned survey. The reason so many bees are dying can be traced to two words: Varroa destructor. Mites. Three words, actually: Varroa destructor mites. These little guys cause a number of problems for bees, especially deformed wing virus, which causes physical deformities. Not only that, but these mites feed on the bees’ fat reserves. This is especially problematic during the winter, when bees rely on these fat reserves for nourishment. “If you control them, your bees are fine,” said Jim Fraser, president of the Maryland Beekeepers Association. “There are an awful lot of people who don’t control them.” Easier said than done. Karen Rennich, executive director of the Bee Informed Partnership, said that many beekeepers around the country


are frustrated that methods for dealing with varroa mites aren’t working. The mites are becoming resilient, so it’s becoming more and more difficult to get rid of them. “Think of it like antibiotics,” she told the Baltimore Sun. It’s not just mites that are affecting bee colonies. Pesticides are big contributors to the declining number of anthophila, and a lot of it has to do with blame shifting. Maryann Frazier, a retired senior extension associate for the College of Agricultural Sciences at Pennsylvania State

University, told npr.org that pesticide industry leaders try to put the blame solely on Varroa mites. The reality is that there are numerous amounts of data that show pesticides are also responsible for bees’ declining numbers. The Bee Informed Partnership works with apiaries to come up with different ways of solving these problems. Don John, apiary manager at the Baltimore-based Apex Bee Company, has successfully gotten rid of these mites using oxalic acid, which is sold at hardware stores as wood

bleach. Some states are encouraging citizens to save the bees. Bigthink.com reports that Minnesota encourages its residents to plant bee friendly plants in their lawns, such as Dutch white clover. And many states, like California, provide tax exemptions for beekeepers. Reducing our reliance on pesticides can help, too. Bees play an important role in pollination and crop production. But if they keep dying at the rate they’re going, there won’t be any bees left. 31

Her dedication to the farm is palpable in every word she speaks about the farm. “It’s my heaven here,” explains Schmitz as she pulled weeds from the root of a tree. The three of them take care of the farm, along with other volunteers that show up on weekends. High schoolers and local children are brought to learn about the earth and farming, many love it so much that they come back with friends.

There are empty lots of land littering our cities. In many cases, these lots are left unused. In worst case scenarios, they become land development for expensive housing. The lot of land that sits behind the Ramada hotel by Wyndham located on the corner of Santa Anita Avenue and Fawcett Avenue was just another lot of land up until 15 years ago. What was once an empty field of wild grass is now a thriving farm full of lush plants run by a very dedicated crew. The Earthworks Farm and Community Garden was started 15 years ago by Angel Abarca through the San Gabriel Conservation Corps. Abarca, alongside Jessie Grajeda, cleared out the land and made it workable.

Many people find comfort in nature. For some, like director Steven Spielberg, nature provides an avenue to clear the mind and become inspired. Such is the the case with Heritage Park, where people of all ages come to immerse themselves in nature.

The park also houses an exhibit called “When the Air was Pure and Money Grew on Trees,” which shows what life was like in the region from 1880 - 1920. The exhibit was originally a barn for housing horses and cariages in 1880, but was rebuilt in 1987 based on century-old pictures.

The park also has a wide variety of plant life, too. Or flora, for those science types out there. There’s even a strip of land with orange trees growing. While you can’t pick the oranges, you can defintiely photograph them.
