DEFORESTATION INTRODUCTION: Deforestation‚ clearance or clearing is the removal of a forest or stand of trees where the land is thereafter converted to a non-forest use. Examples of deforestation include conversion of forestland to farms‚ ranches‚ or urban use. The term deforestation is often misused to describe any activity where all trees in an area are removed. However in temperate climates‚ the removal of all trees in an area in conformance with sustainable forestry practices—is correctly

emissions. It has been claimed that an Australian carbon tax will have no significant impact on the level of greenhouse gases in the earth’s atmosphere. This claim has been made on two bases. Firstly that it is unlikely to succeed in significantly reducing Australian greenhouse gas emissions and secondly‚ that even if these emissions were to stop completely this would have no useful effect on world greenhouse gas emission rates. Critics of a carbon tax for Australia argue that it will damage our economy

An Overview of Anatomy Exercise 1: Anatomical Position QUESTION: A. Explain why it is important to have a universally accepted anatomical position when studying the structure of humans. Having a universally accepted anatomical positional is important to avoid confusion. It creates a reference point so that no matter language or background of different people‚ they can still communicate efficiently. Exercise 2: Surface Anatomy A. Review Figure 3.

Each tablet contains aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid)‚ citric acid‚ and sodium bicarbonate. As the tablet dissolves in water‚ the bicarbonate ions in the tablet react with the hydrogen ions from the acids that are also contained in the tablet. The carbon dioxide gas produced by the reaction is what causes the bubbling that can be observed. HCO3- (aq) + H+ (aq) → H2O (l) + CO2 (g) In this investigation‚ you will design two experiments which will compare two different factors that may affect the

Atmospheric pollution as a result of emission of carbon monoxide‚ Sulphur oxides and hydrocarbons has become a subject of growing concern and has led to increasing pressure for restrictions of burning of fossil fuels. It is estimated that currently more than 20 billion tons of carbon dioxide are being released in the atmosphere in this way every year. The discharge of these air pollutants is infecting and destroying

Is deforestation the cause of climate change? A. The forest can provide many different products. 1. Consumers use these products everyday ● Cost of products increasing 2. Carbon Dioxide in the atmosphere ● Most trees hold in the carbon dioxide 3. Changes in the ecosystem ● loss of trees mean higher risk of disasters. II. Rain forest are slowly vanishing B. “Slash and Burn” process. 1. Many farmers are following
