Describe the strategies that have been suggested to reduce global warming. To what extent do you think they are successful? Global warming is the rise in the average temperature of Earth’s atmosphere and oceans since the late 19th century and its projected continuation. Since the early 20th century‚ Earth’s mean surface temperature has increased by about 0.8 °C. It is primarily caused by increasing concentrations of greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide and methane produced by human activities such

there are many ways that could help us to live in a warmer world and even learn to use a warmer world to our advantage as a species‚ we could start by ending deforestation‚ preserving and propagating Mangroves and start the plantation of Redwood trees using Terra Preta(3) as a way to increase the lands fertility. Deforestation is one of the biggest ways in which we are depleting the earth of the lungs that uses to purify the atmosphere and clean the environment of carbon dioxide which is a greenhouse

The form and shape of the trees created by Glover are strongly organic spreading out past the boarder of the canvas. Glover’s technique of painting trees is one of the key elements his work is recognised by. Glover’s painting shows the trees as both living and not living. The work is dominated by organic

The Brazilian Rainforest is important for many reasons such as: settling‚ ranching‚ hunting‚ plants growth‚ rubber trees‚ oxygen cycle‚ and medicine. The best course of action for the Brazilian government is to outlaw the burning or cutting of the rainforest. The rainforest is currently used by a number of different interest groups; each one has its own priority in the

There are many other individual baobabs that approach or exceed 10 metres in trunk thickness. These trees have the greatest potential for hugeness if allowed to live very long‚ but how long can they live? In 2007‚ the biggest baobab in South Africa was officially determined to be about 2‚000 years old‚ and many others may exceed 1‚000 years. Baobab wood

HARDWOOD Hardwood is wood from angiosperm trees (more strictly speaking non-monocot angiosperm trees). It may also be used for those trees themselves: these are usually broad-leaved; in temperate and boreal latitudes they are mostly deciduous‚ but in tropics and subtropics mostly evergreen. Hardwood contrasts with softwood (which is from Gymnosperm trees). Hardwoods are not necessarily harder than softwoods. In both groups there is an enormous variation in actual wood hardness‚ with the range in
