Animal extinction is happening nowadays due to the multiple factors of environmental degradation. The primary cause of environmental degradation is human disturbance. Extinctions caused by human are generally considered to be are recent phenomena. When humans convert wild areas for agriculture‚ forestry‚ urban development‚ or water projects including dams‚ hydropower‚ and irrigation‚ they reduce or eliminate its usefulness as a habitat for the other species that live there.

ABSTRACT This report involves a well description on acid rain as well as a focus on acid rain in eastern Canada. This report contains a very helpful basic background on acid rain as well as a questionnaire. It involves an annual report on the Federal-Provincial Agreements‚ sulphur dioxide emissions in the seven most eastern provinces‚ trends in acid deposition in the Atlantic provinces from 1980-1994‚ as well as acid precipitation in Kejimkujik‚ Nova Scotia. It also includes data tables‚ graphs

relationship between elements and complexes. In doing so‚ he explains a recent dream of his‚ which‚ in turn‚ is actually an explanation of Dream Theory. Dream Theory states that “the primary elements‚ of which we and everything else are composed‚ have no account. Each of them itself‚ by itself‚ can only be named” (126). In other words‚ as elements cannot be broken down further‚ elements cannot have an account because that would require the determining of whether or not the said elements exist. The addition

Air pollution is a huge problem in North Carolina. We know this is a problem because “in 2012‚ North Carolina ranked 8th in the country for our high levels of toxic air pollution from coal-fired power plants” (“NC’s Air Quality”). Besides coal-fired power plants‚ transportation‚ paper mills‚ and industrial facilities also play a part in our air pollution (“NC’s Air Quality”). “North Carolina was a leader in protecting public health by establishing air toxics rules in the early 1980’s prior to federal

Many people feel that it is the most serious pollution problem that we now face. Scientists say that plant and animal life in thousands of lakes in the United States and Canada has already been destroyed by acid rain. Acid rain forms in the upper atmosphere. There‚ sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides mix with water vapor. They mix with water vapor to form sulfuric acid and nitric acid. When the vapor condenses and rain falls‚ the acids fall with it. Every time acid rain falls in a lake‚ the level of acid in the lake rises
