There is a fundamental resource that has an impact everyday on all of our lives. We use it in cooking‚ farming‚ agriculture‚ machines‚ cleaning‚ recreation‚ and for industry purposes. We need it to survive and to go about our lives normally. This resource is water and although it may be taken for granted that it will always be there‚ the ever growing needs of our seven billion people society is pushing our planet to its limit to provide us potable water. This essay will attempt to describe how

Lesson II – Effects of Deforestation Deforestation is the removal or destruction of large areas of forest or rainforest. Deforestation happens for many reasons‚ such as logging‚ agriculture‚ natural disasters‚ urbanization and mining. There are several ways to clear forest -- burning and clear-cutting the land are two methods. Although deforestation occurs worldwide‚ it’s a particularly critical issue in the Amazon rainforests of Brazil. There‚ the tropical forests‚ and the species of plants and

Because… Their share of population without electricity is > 75%. Talking numbers that is about 60 millions of people. They have a lot of potential resources that are not used (Huge hydro-power potential‚ a lot of sunny days‚ geothermal energy‚ biofuels production). A country is rich in remote areas that are not connected to main power grid and forced to produce energy by themselves or stay in the medieval era. We are researching Potential renewable energy sources to exploit. Possibility

A thermoacidophile (combination of thermophile and acidophile ) is an extreme archaebacteria which thrives in acids‚ sulfur rich‚ high temperature environments. Thermoacidophiles prefer temperatures of 70 - 80 C and pH between 2 and 3. They live mostly in hot springs and/or within deep ocean vent communities. Classified as an Archaebacteria and an extremophile‚ Thermoacidophiles are found in places where most organisms would not survive. Thermoacidophiles love heat and acidic watery environments

habitat loss in the U.S.? • Agriculture: Much of the habitat loss from agriculture was done long ago when settlers converted forests and prairies to cropland. Today‚ there is increasing pressure to redevelop conservation lands for high-priced food and biofuel crops. • Land conversion for development: The conversion of lands that once provided wildlife habitat to housing developments‚ roads‚ office parks‚ strip malls‚ parking lots and industrial sites
