Light energy is considered to be one of our most available and easily used sources of renewable energy. What are some of the factors that have slowed the development of better ways to take advantage of this energy source in agriculture?
How can modern biomass-to-energy conversion technologies mitigate poverty as compared to traditional biomass processing (heating/cooking)?
Review Section 12.2.1. Construct and evaluate a spreadsheet model to solve the numerical approximation of the SIR system of equations.
Skole and Tucker (1993) and others documented the rate and extent of recent deforestation in the Amazon Basin in Brazil. However, scientists have documented agricultural activity in New World tropical forests beginning at least 6,000 years ago. What makes present-day deforestation in the Amazon Basin different from this historical activity? What does the long history of agriculture in the Amazon Basin suggest about the potential for coexistence of agriculture and biological diversity there?
Name at least 5 important determinants of risk perception.
