A study by a group of Australian researchers suggests that global sea levels could go up by as much as 50 cm over the course of this century, should current trends continue. This is particularly worrying for island nations like the United Kingdom who already lose hundreds of square miles of land each year due to erosion. The research is based on data from locations around the globe and covers a 130-year period.
How can we live less wastefully and support the environment so that it may be healthy for generations to come? It may seem like an overwhelming task but it takes just three steps to make a real difference: we must reduce, reuse and recycle! Before we throw anything away, we must think if there is any way we can use it for another purpose. It is good for your finances too!
The Earth has warmed by three quarters of a degree centigrade over the last hundred years. Alarmingly, more than half of this warming has occurred since the 1970s. We can no longer question whether human activity has contributed to this rise. The emission of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide has affected our climate dramatically. Depending on our emissions, the average global temperature could rise between 1.1 and 6.4 degrees by the end of the century.
Declared a World Heritage area in 1981, The Great Barrier Reef is the largest structure built by living organisms. It is the only living organic collective that is visible from the Earth’s orbit. Covering a territory of more than 300,000 square kilometres, it is made up of beautiful islands and idyllic coral cays. It contains the world’s largest collection of coral reefs. No wonder the Australians are so proud!
Birkback College is open to the public on the 23rd of May from 11 am to 5.30 pm to get us thinking on a wide variety of topics. Join in the many workshops and you will get the opportunity to find out how your lifestyle affects the environment, the dos and don’ts of recycling and much, much more! You can even bring in your heating bills and get expert advice on how you can save energy at home!
Want to live and/or work in a pleasant environment, a laidback city? Then private cars must go! The only permitted motor vehicles would be buses, small taxis and vehicles for essential services. This would solve the current problems of congestion and parking and improve the quality of the air. Who wants to drive at 6 miles per hour, pollute the atmosphere and fight with pedestrians? We can beautify the city and improve the quality of life for people who live in the centre if so desire!
Genetic modification has made it possible for farmers to grow crops that previously seemed impossible: huge plants bursting with natural pesticides and vitamins. Such crops mean that people in third-world countries won’t have to go hungry every day because there will be enough to feed the whole of the world’s population. On the other hand, some people fear that GM crops could pose more risks than benefits to humans.
