I chose this picture because it is a modern day depiction of a city in China. The whole world could look like this in a few decades if we keep putting sustainability on the back burner. Smog filled skies and not a green thing in sight. Between continuous pollution, the governments enabling of that pollution, and science always finding ways around the pollution to make plants grow and to make our environment hold on by a thread, this could be our future before we know it and it is already happening. Like I said, this isn't a premonition picture, this is a modern day photo and the awful smog issues China faces are already becoming a huge problem in placed like Los Angles. Sustainability is becoming more important than ever as a result.

In my opinion, one of the most common and life changing chemicals derived from plants would be morphine or opium from the Opium Poppy. This changed the face of medicine. Surgeries can now be preformed mostly painlessly because of it. People that experience chronic pain have relief. It's used world wide, and even dates back centuries as it's medicinal properties were even used for asthma at one point. Here's a link that talks even more about extremely common, influential plants that have medicinal properties (including the Opium Poppy): https://www.theenglishgarden.co.uk/plants/5-drugs-derived-from-plants/

I used this picture of trees from a neighborhood to represent the role of plants in society and our environment for a couple of reasons. For society it provides oxygen, shade, and a source of building materials. For the environment, it can be an integral part of the ecosystem. For example, for a local squirrel it could provide food, shelter, and oxygen. The tree could also spread any seeds it may have to produce more trees, providing more clean air, more shelter, and more shade for all of the creatures around it.

I chose this video on photosynthesis for a couple of reasons. It breaks down photosynthesis in an easily understood way by using visuals. Visuals are very important to me because I'm a major visual learner. Not only do the visuals help, but it also shows the chemical formula involved in photosynthesis, which I also found to be helpful. It's easier to remember in my opinion. The video was also short and sweet instead of overly detailed, making it easier to comprehend.

One impact that the Neolithic Revolution had on humans was that the ability to farm allowed them to congregate in larger groups. Not only was this beneficial for the sake of protection and food sustainability, but it was also beneficial because it helped the population grow. This also means that humans went from being nomads moving from place to place to follow animals and good weather to having more established homes and areas. This would lead to cities and established territories and even countries.

I chose irrigation for this padlet because I think the effects of it were pretty wide reaching. Farmers being able to provide large scale, more efficient irrigation would allow them to produce more crops on a commercial scale. This commercial scale would enrich the agriculture business, and also allow for more export of crops based on the surplus farmers would then be able to produce. It most definitely would have had a global impact, even if it seemed like a small thing to change.

I'm choosing to talk about the tropical rainforest biome, as I believe it is most in danger, and I also believe it could be one of humanities biggest losses. The tropical rainforest has been logged and deforested to death. It has been reduced because of clear cutting to make space for both urban living and farming practices, primarily cattle farming. This could be one of humanities biggest losses because, as stated in the notes, it produces over half of the world's oxygen. It simply seems like a matter of what people value more. Cattle farming and money? Or the ability to sustain life on earth?
