three most popular ones are logging‚ construction and especially furniture. This essay will discuss how we are destroying the rainforest. The most significant danger to the rainforest of the three that will be outlined in this essay is logging. Logging can be used for many things. People mostly take up logging for the cold hard cash. But they do not consider the damage that they are doing to the rainforest‚ the plants and animals. The most dangerous form of logging is clear felling. Clear felling

The natural latex then falls into a cup‚ and is removed and processed to make the rubber. Rubber trees are quite rare - in a thirty square kilometre area‚ with 20‚000 trees‚ there may be just sixty rubber trees. Timber logging causes a lot of damage to the rainforest. Timber logging is very popular as a mahogany tree can sell for £500 per cubic metre. However‚ mahogany trees are very rare‚ as there are only around one or two trees per hectare. In the process of cutting down one tree‚ twenty eight

A 2007 study finds that discharge of untreated sewage is the single most important cause for pollution of surface and ground water in India. There is a large gap between generation and treatment of domestic waste water in India. The problem is not only that India lacks sufficient treatment capacity but also that the sewage treatment plants that exist do not operate and are not maintained.[1] The majority of the government-owned sewage treatment plants remain closed most of the time due to improper

issues will be assessed and discussed from two major perspectives: environmental and social. In terms of environmental perspective‚ potential CSR issues include excessive deforestation‚ over-exploitation of forests with significant biodiversity and water pollution resulting from lumbering. From the social perspective‚ potential CSR issues include the impact of forestry activities on indigenous population‚ workers’ safety and human rights associated with the workers employed in this industry.

Introduction In every model of economics there must be the good and bad outcomes because there are no perfect models in the economic system. In this case we will talk about the Multi centric organizational model. Multi-centric organizational model is a model that developed by David Ricardo (1772-1823)‚ in this model he focused more on distribution‚ whereas Adam Smith more focused on the production side on the market model. In this model there are premises like in the market model also‚ the premises

Water pollution Water pollution is the contamination of water bodies . Mostly water pollution occurs in lakes‚ rivers‚ oceans‚ aquifers and groundwater. Water pollution occurs when pollutants are directly or indirectly discharged into water bodies without adequate treatmentto remove harmful compounds. Type of water pollutions There are many types of water pollution because water comes from many sources. Here are a few types of water pollution: 1. Nutrients Pollution Some wastewater‚ fertilizers

Earth’s atmosphere‚ ultimately warming Earth’s air temperature. * Loss of soil and atmospheric moisture. Many trees transpire groundwater through their roots‚ and release this moisture into the atmosphere. Once an area of forest in cleared‚ the water is not released into the atmosphere‚ resulting in loss of precipitation in nearby areas‚ ultimately resulted in insufficient nutrients for other areas of forest.

help by allowing the more sunlight in the forest so the plants you want can grow. Selective logging which means cutting only some trees ‚ while saving young trees and some healthy older trees to hold soil and provide seed for the future. Planting green space in smaller areas of trees in places where most trees have been cut down‚ or where the forest is completely gone‚ is a way to improve the soil‚ water‚ and air even in populated cities and towns. Last but not least you can support natural regrowth

Deionized Water vs. Distilled Water Deionized and distilled waters are both processed forms of water. Deionized water is produced by filtering water to the point where it is free of ions. This ion-free water will strip ions from surrounding material‚ acting like a super-solvent. This is often used in semiconductor and other high-tech processing as a "soft" solvent and relatively cheap cleaning fluid. Distilled water is most often produced by vaporizing less pure source water (tap‚ salt or even
