Extinction, what we can do to help?

 Matheus Storck 


We currently have a top 10 most endangered animals and you know how to protect them, a species is classified as threatened when its population drops between 50 and 70 percent and when its population has less than 250 mature individuals, when the population is so low its area of ​​occupation is not considered. There are more than 40 thousand species in the red line and more than 16 thousand are threatened with extinction.

Below is a list of animals at serious risk of extinction:

Javan rhinocerous

Vaquita

Mountain gorilla

Tiger

Asian Elephant

Orangutans


Leatherback turtles

Snow Leopards

Irrawaddy Dolphins

Bluefin Tuna

Only 67 Javan rhinos are estimated to remain in the world, making this critically endangered rhino species one of the most threatened large mammal species on Earth.

Conservation

International Rhino Foundation

  IRF works with our local partner, the Rhino Foundation of Indonesia (Yayasan Badak Indonesia or YABI), and the staff of the Ujung Kulon National Park to protect the world's only population of Javan rhinos while also working to expand the species' habitat in Indonesia.

  The aim of wildlife conservation is to ensure the survival of these species and educate people on how to live sustainably with other species. Development of protected areas such as national parks, wildlife sanctuaries to protect animals in their natural habitat. Threatened and vulnerable species can be held captive in places such as local sanctuaries and bred to increase their population. Logging of forests must be strictly prohibited. Our duty is to protect their habitat by planting trees, restoring wetlands and cleaning up beaches in their area.

On Shaky Ground

By: Hannah Meadows The New Madrid fault line is a growing danger right under peoples feet. Most people don’t realize how catastrophic it would be if the fault line went off and the worst part… there is no telling when it will go off. Usually, earthquakes wouldn’t be an issue in places like California because all of their buildings are built to withstand earthquakes. However, the New Madrid fault line sits right along southern Missouri and Missouri is known for its sedimentary rock. This means an earthquake in Missouri would cause all buildings and houses to be buried since they aren’t built to withstand earthquakes. Now what would the statistics really look like if the New Madrid fault line were to go off unexpectedly?  84,000 buildings damaged and 37,000 more destroyed, almost entirely residences  Over 15,000 people killed and an additional 120,000 displaced Nearly 200 schools and over 100 fire stations would be damaged  37 hospitals and 67 police stations would be compl...

Energy: Hydropower Pros and Cons

Image
 Hydropower is not often talked about as a primary option for sustainable energy, however, 6.6% of energy produced in the U.S. is through hydropower, compared to solar energy which happens to only be 2.3% and is usually the first thought when someone mentions “clean energy.” The reason for this being the majority hydropower plants only give energy to large-scale, industrial operations.  Hydropower boasts a few positives that make it a viable option, those being that it is reliable, safe, and produces a very low amount of emissions. Other than that, they are fairly expensive to build, and they have a very realistic potential to cause droughts. Hydropower is an interesting source of energy and as of now it is only really used for industrial use, however in the future there is a very real possibility for it to be used to power residential areas.  https://www.solarreviews.com/blog/hydroelectric-energy-pros-and-cons#pros-and-cons

They called it a shrinking world because our technology is getting even better and better. Anyways going into the article there is a graph and a description of the burgeoning population of the globe. After it talk about this problem it gets into how this can help our food problem and how we are on our way to a new type of farming. It ends off with them giving numbers on there work with BI intelligence and how much money they made in 2020 and what they are projected to make in 2050.
