It’s easy to take the air for granted. Although it’s always around us, we don’t often give it much thought. We can’t see, smell, or hear it, but we can certainly feel it move—and that breeze you feel on a windy day is part of a larger air current circling our planet and bringing us all kinds of weather. Our air gives us life, and it makes up the atmosphere that protects us.
