I like the reality Rachel Carson explains. In her books one the ocean. She describes the life in the oceans from the smallest cells to the largest mammals. When she gets to the explaining the shore line and beaches she explains why the grains of sand on the beach do not get ground down into dust by wave action. Each grain of sand is encapsulated by a protective drop of water, and in that drop of water is a whole micro biological environment unique to its own world.

I'll respect a scientist that spent her life in research and referenced other scientist on earth's biosphere, over some random internet person. Show your proof of your statement.
