Some environmental problems in Viet Nam today Thai Cong Tung Abstracts Demographic growth‚ urbanization‚ industrialization‚ infrastructure development...are contributing to increase stress on the natural resource base in Viet Nam today. The paper highlighted those stresses : the rural exodus to the cities due to scarce land resources in the countryside‚ the pollution problems in the urban environment‚ the migration of people to forested areas with direct impacts including the deforestation‚ the watershed

Major Problems Faced by Indian Agriculture The major problems confronting Indian agriculture are those of population pressure‚ small holdings‚ depleted soils‚ lack of modern technology and poor facilities for storage. (a) Population Pressure: India has a huge population of over one billion and it is increasing at a very fast rate. According to 2001 census figures the over all density of population is 324 persons per sq. km. This is likely to increase further in future. This has created great demand

Marine and Lacustrine Deposits ORIGINS AND GEOTECHNICAL ISSUES Robert Bartus s2721227 | 4 104ENG Geotechnical Engineering Practice | August 19‚ 2012 1 The origins of soil deposits on the earth’s crust can reveal significant findings in the chemical and mechanical characteristics of the soils themselves. It is important to uncover such origins to find how and where such deposits may have formed over tens of thousands of years ago. Marine and Lacustrine deposits are two soil types that are commonly

The environment plays a significant role in life. Meanwhile‚ humans impact on natural environment as well‚ through pollution‚ greenhouse effect. Obviously‚ our growing population not only means that people use more resources‚ people also produce more pollution. Therefore‚ pollution of the natural environment is the main issue. Today‚ increasing population growth causes the natural environment to change greatly. This paper focuses on the negative influence of population growth on the environment in

LO2 a) Erosion Moving masses of ice (glaciers) cause erosion‚ and as a result change landscapes dramatically. There are 3 processes that cause direct glacial erosion: o Abrasion o Crushing o Plucking Meltwater erosion is an indirect process of erosion. Abrasion Rock fragments at the base of the glacier grind against the bedrock wearing down it’s surface. As a result‚ the surface becomes smooth. These smoothed bedrock surfaces are called striations. Fine silt particles are formed‚ called rock flour
