Bio-Expansion Theory
The Bio-Expansion Theory states, "Biological life will cause the Earth's radius to increase indefinitely."

Overview
This theory is presented by John Robert Church. He realized that in the billions of years Earth has been around, animals, humans, and even plants create waste that goes into the Earth's crust. Not only has so much waste been created and dumped but these bodies also die and are decomposed adding to the mass of the Earth.

For a species to survive that species must reproduce. This brings new life onto the surface of Earth, this new life keeps creating waste and also creating new life. The cycle repeats itself and has repeated itself billions of times.

NASA
According to scientists at NASA the Earth is growing at a rate of .1 millimeters per year. A quote directly from NASA says, "scientists estimated the average change in Earth's radius to be 0.004 inches (0.1 millimeters) per year, or about the thickness of a human hair, a rate considered statistically insignificant."

This growth has been waved off by NASA as insignificant and unimportant. John disagrees with them. It takes approximately 254 years for the Earth to grow one inch. According to scientists the approximate age of the Earth is 4.543 billion years old. This would mean that in the history of earth its radius has increased by

about 282.2889326334208 miles.

The Math
While .1 millimeters may seem inconsequential because of how small that number is, when those little numbers add up it becomes much bigger in our minds. To understand how Church came up with 282 miles we must look at the math. He came up with the equations (AE)/254=(TI)    (TI)/12=(TF)     (TF)/5280=M

(AE) = age of Earth, (TI) = total inches, (TF) = total feet, M = miles.

4,543,000,000/254=17,885,826.77165354

17,885,826.77165354/12=1,490,485.564304462

1,490,485.564304462/5280=282.2889326334208

282.2889326334208 Miles

Conclusion
This new idea of the theory of Bio-Expansion is bigger than anyone has thought before. The Earth's radius has expanded by about 282 miles in the 4.543 billion years it has been around. It will continue to grow. It will grow by an incremental .1 millimeters per year. There is nothing we can do to stop this growth,

we can only slow it. While others may wave off this idea and laugh at it some will understand its importance. This theory has immense importance for the preservation of the human race and the preservation and understanding of our home, Earth.
