1A- Literacy & Education 1B- People always say that a nation with no education is a building with no bedrock. Most people agree that nations and countries can become civilized by education. 1C- Literacy and education have a strong connection with the map of Warlords, Gang lords, & Militias. Countries. Strong education leads to a low presence of gang lords and warlords, the map shows us that countries with around 35% and above of adult literacy for its people will most likely have sort of…

· The climatic and physical geographies of this region precipitated Russian expansion. First, the climate of the region has meant that certain areas were best suited to nomadic peoples, who have been in constant contest with Russians as they expanded across the continent. The climate has also been conducive to certain animals that have furs, which has been a highly prized commodity globally. The physical geography of the region, which means that many places are resource rich, has also…

Climate Change: Is it Factual or Fictional? Whether or not climate change is real has been a debate that has circulated the world for decades. After recent natural disasters that affected millions around the country, the debate has been reignited. Several states, such as California, have already put in place rules that increase energy efficiency that uses less fossil fuels. The factors included in this debate range anywhere from a scientific standpoint to a political one. Some believe climate…

due its extreme weather conditions enabling fewer species to thrive and an overall less diverse population. This less diverse population results in a simpler food chain. Subsequently, if one species is wiped out due to glaciers melting, thawing permafrost, or extreme weather changes all caused by global warming then it is more difficult for the animals living there to adapt and continually adds stress to the ecosystem. The melting trend in northern Canada is increasing. Rapidly Over the past 30…

Do you ever wonder what our world will be like in fifty years? Thanks to global warming, which is a gradual increase of the earth’s overall temperature, many believe that our whole world will be suffering. Global warming is a controversial theory, which means some people believe in it, but others don’t . Even though some people do not believe in the causes of global warming, we can see that it has already made a tremendous impact on the earth. Based on the negative effects, we can see that…

emit carbon dioxide into the atmosphere at our current rate the average temperature in the United States will increase by at least 3 degrees Fahrenheit by 2100. Sea levels will rise by at least two feet, flooding low lying communities, and Alaskan permafrost will begin to thaw. Precipitation patterns will shift and extreme weather events like hurricanes will become even stronger, fueled by warmer oceans and a warmer atmosphere (Future of Climate Change). Unless global warming is slowed, climate…

are from human-induced warming. (citation) Scientists have foreshadowed several future trends to occur because of global climate change. One trend they are ninety-nine percent certain of is the contraction of snow cover areas, more thawing in the permafrost region, and decreases in sea ice (citation). The rate at which these temperatures are rising cannot be explained by natural changes (citation). It has been found in a recent study that almost two-thirds of atmospheric and ocean temperature…

Addressing Global Warming Since the dawn of mankind, the Earth has been an everlasting landscape for the potential of future endeavors. Eventually, humanity found itself dominating over the majority of the planet and its inhabitants, which resulted in some arrogance. While humans were able to send a man to the Moon, they were unable to understand the planetary functions of their own planet until recent decades. In a sort of ironic twist, the dominating predator of the Earth now has to contend…

Russia Russia is a country in Europe that has existed and been inhabited since Paleolithic times. Russian Federation or Modern Russian has grown into the largest country in the world.
