We have seen areas go from warm to cold, wet to dry and back time and time again. This natural occurrence with Earth’s weather patterns have never been put under extreme scrutiny until recently.

severity of coastal flooding (linked to global warming) pose a major threat to the physical and ecological infrastructures in coastal communities (Airoldi et al. 2005; Barbier et al. 2011; Filatova 2014; Pryce and Chen 2011). It is claimed that the adverse economic impacts of flooding (both riverine and coastal) in the U.S are higher than any other natural hazard (Pope 2008).

Bacteria grow with pH interval between 4 and 9, and fungi from 4 to 6, so pH is im-portant for the growth and proliferation of soil microbes, and therefore soil respiration. Soils with pH 3 produce much less CO2 than soils with pH 4 due to the adverse effect of low pH on soil microbial activity. Production of…

However, she further describes that such conditions play no effect in G.M.O. crops because they contain devised characteristics of tolerance that ensure them to have a higher…
