one of the leading countries when it comes to deforestation only behind countries such as Brazil, Canada, and Russia. It is estimated that in 100 years, there will be no rainforests. Trees are critical to environmental health. They absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, provide shelter for wildlife and keep topsoil on the ground. Trees are often cut down to clear land for agricultural…

deforestation. As citizens living on this planet Earth, we have the responsibility to take actions that will keep it healthy and living if possible, which includes maintaining as much forestry alive as possible by keeping a steady amount of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. In other words, to get an unsustainable item to be sustainable, it would be most helpful to follow the following sufficient tasks to benefit the unsustainable factor that is having maintenance, while not harming…

Everyone has heard the term global warming, but how is this major issue being defined? To many people, global warming is defined as the steady rise of the Earth’s temperature from an excess of carbon dioxide being released into the atmosphere. To numberless others, global warming is simply that the climate change and carbon emission has nothing to do with it. While this last definition seems to be the easiest due to being less scary and not having to deal with the problem, it does not mean it is…

Crop simulation model is an effective tools in understanding climate change effects on agricultural production systems (Masutomi et al. 2009; White et al. 2011). The modeling studies from Bangladesh (Karim et al. 1996), Japan (Horie et al. 2000), China (Shen et al. 2010), Korea (Lee et al. 2012) and India (Krishnan et al. 2007) reported the country-specific discrepancies in future rice yield due to climate warming; the highest decrease in rice yield will probably occur in most areas of low…

when the greenhouse gases absorb IR radiation and prevent it from radiating toward outer space which results in gradual heating of the Earth’s atmosphere and surface. Greenhouse gases that contribute to the global warming include water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and chlorofluorocarbons. Human activities are changing…

I found an article by Brian Kahn titled “World 's Atmospheric Carbon Dioxide Passes 400 PPM Threshold. Permanently” that provides scientific evidence of global warming. His article explains this September the carbon dioxide levels have set a record. He continues to explain how in the month of September, the levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide are at their lowest for the year. He adds this September, the level of atmospheric CO2 levels never dropped below…

Introduction Marine invertebrates in the class Anthozoa are known as Corals. These diverse organisms give quite a show in the shallow clear parts of the ocean. Corals live closely together in groups expressing their bright colors that stand out so nicely. Many people consider coral reefs to be very diverse and productive than anything on land. Their skeleton is made out of calcium carbonate protecting them from future encounters with predators. Many more coral polyps then can attach themselves…

Physical Geography of Bethlehem Bethlehem is a suburban town that consists of seven hamlets: North and South Bethlehem, Elsmere, Slingerlands, Delmar, Glenmont, and Selkirk. Bethlehem is a total of 49.6 square miles. 48.8 of those square miles consist of land, and .8 square miles consists or water. Bethlehem is right outside of Albany, the state’s capital. Bethlehem also borders with the towns Guilderland, New Scotland, and Coeymans. Bethlehem and its surrounding towns are all relatively flat,…
