Finding a balance while travelling in the Galapagos is an art; one that challenges‚ inspires and reveals many aspects of life in the archipelago. From the outside‚ the tensions between conservation and tourism are palatable. One side bestowing the virtues of protecting the fragile ecology of the islands while the other is intent on sharing the multitudes of options for an “ideal” vacation with whomever will lend an ear. When talking with people who live and work in the islands‚ the lines blur between

problem that we are facing was the conservation of biodiversity. yes everyone agrees in conserving natural resources or our biodiversity was a good idea. Many group‚ such as government agencies to agro business every one is a concerned individuals and has their own ideas about conserving biodiversity‚ groups have their own agenda to pursue but the main goal is to stop the threats in our biodiversity. Part of the problem in conservation of biodiversity is that conservation of biodiversity is quite costly

Explain using law of conservation of energy. (use values of KE and PE for cart with mass attached) According to the law of conservation of energy‚ in an isolated system‚ the initial potential energy and the kinetic energy should be the same.
