Natural gas is the best choice among fossil fuels because it is cleaner and more efficient than coal or oil. However, it still contributes to climate change, so moving toward renewable energy is ideal.

You are working at a power company, and you need to recommend your customers either coal, oil, or naturals. Explain the advantages and disadvantages of coal, oil, and natural gas. Which one would you recommend.

Threats to rivers and streams include pollution, erosion, overuse, and climate change. A riparian buffer—trees and plants along the water—helps by filtering pollution, preventing erosion, improving habitats, and keeping the water cool.

What are major threats to rivers and stream? Explain how a Riffian buffer can improve the health of the river or streams

Ice sheet melting is one of the hardest climate effects to reverse. Once major ice sheets in Antarctica and Greenland melt, they cause permanent sea level rise, flooding coastal cities and disrupting ecosystems. Even if global temperatures stop rising, melted ice won't simply reform, making this a long-lasting change.

What is the biggest effect of climate that will be difficult to reverse? Explain you reasoning.

Poverty fuels deforestation because farmers cut down trees to make space for crops and livestock to survive. However, deforestation leads to soil degradation and climate issues, making farming harder. This keeps communities trapped in poverty, forcing them to clear more land, continuing the cycle.

Brazilian Farmers are cutting down trees for room to grow crops? Explain why poverty goes in the the cycle of deforestation.
