As you can see the bottom of the pyramid is plants which is how animals get their nutrients and how we as humans receive our nutrients. Cutting down plants also imbalance the environment which will indirectly affect human life.

The picture represents the plant harnessing energy from the sunlight to create a chemical energy, also called photosynthesis. I like this picture because it does not just show the plant it opens up the leaf to where you can actually see how the process happens. The picture is detailed and color organized and shows each part that takes place in photosynthesis. Thankful for photosynthesis because it is how us as humans get oxygen and live. ]]> 2017-09-19 18:49:46 UTC https://padlet.com/briannaryder10/jb4vglxvipmm/wish/189059292 briannaryder10 https://padlet.com/briannaryder10/jb4vglxvipmm/wish/193599959 The Pteridophytes was one of the main plants that I found in Georgia which is called the fern. They are mostly used in Georgia for gardening and the shade consistency. Northern maidenhair is one of the larger ferns that take up more room, whereas Red-stemmed lady fern is one of the smaller ferns. "On Friday, May 28, Coweta County MGEV’s dug ferns that included Royal Fern, Nettled Chain Fern, and an assortment of Woodland Ferns." Those were just some of the 45 ferns that were planted in Georgia. ]]> 2017-10-03 18:41:11 UTC https://padlet.com/briannaryder10/jb4vglxvipmm/wish/193599959 briannaryder10 https://padlet.com/briannaryder10/jb4vglxvipmm/wish/198043217 Out of all the biomes in the world, I feel as if the tundra is in the most danger. First, the extreme cold temperatures in the summer can peak at fifty degrees. Any other normal day the temperature sits at zero. There is scarce food sources in the tundra, because the ground is mostly frozen and plants cannot grow. Polar bears are one of the tundras most popular animals, they are one of the most dangerous animals in the world. In the tundra they are known to hunt seals, but recently food has become so scarce they are hunting the seal hunters...humans. Finally, the ultraviolet radiation in the tundra and the mass use of chlorofluorocarbons over the course of decades has thinned the ozone layer over the Earth's polar regions where the tundra is located. ]]> 2017-10-17 22:28:24 UTC https://padlet.com/briannaryder10/jb4vglxvipmm/wish/198043217 briannaryder10 https://padlet.com/briannaryder10/jb4vglxvipmm/wish/202352059 The Neolithic revolution affected humanity because it changed the way people lived. Farming caused humans to permanently settle. There was no more traveling that occured. When people began to settle down, it was a domino effect, villages, then towns, and then cities. The first cities were in Mesopotamia and Egypt, which eventually led to the first establishment of civilizations. The development of these cities provided the foundation for the social life that would follow.]]> 2017-11-01 00:22:00 UTC https://padlet.com/briannaryder10/jb4vglxvipmm/wish/202352059 briannaryder10 https://padlet.com/briannaryder10/jb4vglxvipmm/wish/206407059 2017-11-13 18:26:09 UTC https://padlet.com/briannaryder10/jb4vglxvipmm/wish/206407059 briannaryder10 https://padlet.com/briannaryder10/jb4vglxvipmm/wish/206407419 The third agriculture revolution is also known as the "Green Revolution". I chose this picture of a tractor. Agriculture is a major cause of environmental change. One of the biggest changes was creating tools and manufacturing machines such as a tractor to engineer crops. Tractors also helped in cropping in faster time to globalize production quicker. Tractors help produce more product in a quicker and faster pace. ]]> 2017-11-13 18:26:40 UTC https://padlet.com/briannaryder10/jb4vglxvipmm/wish/206407419 briannaryder10 https://padlet.com/briannaryder10/jb4vglxvipmm/wish/213541970 When most people go to the doctor they don't realize that most medicines come from plants. Most medicines and herbs are what helps find a cure for many sicknesses. If you knew that there was a magical tiny pill to keep your body healthy, would you take it? Of course! The most influential chemical used in the world that is derived from a plant in my eyes is Vitamins (extracted from various plants) used in a variety of ways in the body. Vitamins are used everyday and in a lot of healthy foods. They rejuvenate your body to get back or stay at a healthy pace. I take two women's vitamins a day to make sure my body stays healthy and clean for the future. ]]> 2017-12-05 23:38:38 UTC https://padlet.com/briannaryder10/jb4vglxvipmm/wish/213541970 briannaryder10 https://padlet.com/briannaryder10/jb4vglxvipmm/wish/215642049 If I had to envision what the world would look like in the future if present day agricultural, economic, social, and political went unchecked, it would be this picture below. Obviously this picture is a little more dramatic then what would actually happen. The world being destroyed is what I envisioned. I think all those things on the checklist is what makes our world go round. If they all went unchecked then that would be like asking, what if no one followed the law, the world would be complete chaos. This picture is the world in complete chaos, which in every way makes sense. ]]> 2017-12-12 23:10:47 UTC https://padlet.com/briannaryder10/jb4vglxvipmm/wish/215642049
