Why are mineral bands in metamorphic rocks light and dark colored?

Mineral bands are light and dark colored because they are different types of rock. In the rock cycle different types of rock can stack on top of each other, this can be subducted into the earth near the Mantle where there is enough pressure the rocks can start to melt and change. Because different types of rock metamorphose into different rocks you can have many layers in a type of rock. These can be light or dark colors depending on the rock.

Do taller smoke stacks disperse pollutants downwind more easily than shorter smoke stacks?

Modern smike stacks are designed to allow the effect dilution of gases to ensure that the legislated limits of the pollutants do not exceed the Ground Level Concentration (GLC) specified by law. The calculation involves the stack diameter, exit gas density, temperature and velocity and other factors. The examination and calculation also takes into account the location of the stack relative to there structures and landforms, prevailing winds and local considerations. As a consequence the taller stack and the shorter stack disperse pollutants equally well.
