and unplanned fires. Variables that affects the AIP’s reduction potential includes annual rainfall (mm), average altitude (m), slope, geology, soil texture and type, pre-plantation vegetation type, alien invasive species present and its density, erosion and pollution

suggested that the first people did not walk to America but came by boat. This paper will examine evidence found in Haida Gwaii and other sites along North and South America that supports a different view of human migration to the Americas, the coastal migration theory. The peopling of the Americas “was the last great human migration, the final leg of our journey out of Africa” (Bawaya, M. How the west was won). Precisely how and when this migration occurred is presently up for debate. Accepted

current rate of deforestation, writes National Geographic. The world will become a worse place in 100 years due to deforestation. Deforestation will worsen global warming or the release of greenhouse gases, remove animals from their habitats, and cause erosion and flooding. The removal of trees from our planet will increase the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere, furthermore causing global warming. Global warming is at a record high. For the past 50 years, the global average temperature has increased significantly;

Introduction: Natural disaster is a sudden and terrific event in nature (such as a hurricane, tornado, flood, heat waves,typhoon) that usually results in serious damage and a huge amount of deaths. It's basically defined as an event of nature, which overwhelms local resources and threatens the function of process and security of the community. Generally, disasters are the ultimate test of a community’s emergency response capacity . Bangladesh is one of the largest deltas in the world which is highly

Climate change in today’s world has become of great concern due to its effects on the environment. Globally, climate change has significantly influenced ecosystems and the existence of organisms. This is further extending its effects to regional areas such as Kenya, whose ecosystem is not spared by the changing climate. Despite having natural causes, Anthropogenic factors are widely increasing and causing climate change undisputed. Therefore, human activities are the primary contributors to climate

The indigenous people that used to call the Noosa Shire home were part of the Gubbi Gubbi or Kabi Kabi people. The exact number of indigenous population is unknown but from accounts from explorers and journalists in the 1860s say there were several hundred aboriginals living on the Noosa waterways. The Gubbi Gubbi tribe visited the Noosa area for 40 000 years before the first Europeans arrived in the 1800s. The Aborigines lived as far north as Fraser Island, south to Pumicestone Passage and west

actions may lead to a world crisis. The natural disasters coming in waves we haven’t seen before is proceeding in threatening our future because of recent human activities. For example farmers in the central plains had tractors that made the process of erosion to happen more sooner. This influenced a dust bowl to occur causing its victims to be covered in dirt and all of their crops to vanish under all the dust. Droughts spread through Mexico forbidding any agriculture to feed families and be stable in

12) The tidal inlet Cord grass habitat would expand. 13) Addition of construction jobs and increases in visitors to the area could benefit the local economy. 14) The tidal influence would reduce the potential for mosquito problems (Coastal Conservancy, 2004). What happens to the wetlands if not

Egypt Egypt faces a water crisis because the Nile river disappearing and it is how they farm and get water.“Egypt gets almost all of its water from the Nile. The quality of the river water is seriously threatened by untreated industrial and agricultural wastes, sewage, and municipal waste-water. In addition, the Aswan High Dam, which was completed in 1970, has reduced the flow of the Nile and trapped the nutrient in the soil,which is not good So if Egypt doesn't get some help from the other countries

degrade other beach habitats. The effects of the sea turtles such as the Loggerhead sea turtles are being endangered, “development along ocean shorelines entails substantial risk of property loss, in recognition of the vulnerability of coastal development to shoreline erosion and flooding, and in response to the value of fish and wildlife habitat” (Peterson). The habitats of the animals are as vulnerable as ever because of the environment where they live. Beaches and
