The higher a lands elevation is the colder it gets. Land by water is warmer as the water traps heat, and land closer to the equator is warmer as they more sunlight. All of examples affect Eurasia as they have all of these different examples. ]]> 2016-09-28 15:22:22 UTC https://padlet.com/danielmor8661/yicja105ux7s/wish/127001844 danielmor8661 https://padlet.com/danielmor8661/yicja105ux7s/wish/127290600 Russian policies have impacted their environment in many bad ways.They have completely destroyed some of their resources, such as the Aral Sea, which used to be a great resource. However, due to the governments policies with sewage and the way the treated the water, the Sea has receded and is a lot smaller than it was, with most of it now just being a dry barren land. Another example is the Chernobyl disaster. There wasn't enough safety procedures in the plant, the reactors were out of date, and the government tried to cover it up when it happened. This impacted their environment as Chernobyl is now a ghost town, and the area and surrounding areas have been impacted by radiation. If the government had the right policies, these things wouldn't have happened. ]]> 2016-09-29 15:19:26 UTC https://padlet.com/danielmor8661/yicja105ux7s/wish/127290600 danielmor8661 https://padlet.com/danielmor8661/yicja105ux7s/wish/128856029 2016-10-06 15:23:16 UTC https://padlet.com/danielmor8661/yicja105ux7s/wish/128856029 danielmor8661 https://padlet.com/danielmor8661/yicja105ux7s/wish/129845126 The population is declining in Russia due to a variety of reasons. A low birth rate, high death rate, a high level of abortions, and a low level of immigration. The high death rate is being caused by alcoholism in men, and women are not having children due to economic reasons, which is causing the low birth rate. Russia is not seen as an attractive place to live, so people are not moving there. These things are all causing the population to decline.]]> 2016-10-11 15:14:42 UTC https://padlet.com/danielmor8661/yicja105ux7s/wish/129845126 danielmor8661 https://padlet.com/danielmor8661/yicja105ux7s/wish/130167631 In the USSR, people didn't have free ideas, and they had to follow the rules of communism. Once that was abolished people were free again. However the economy is weak in both, and both cause many problems. The changes were caused by different leaders with different ideas coming into power and changing the way the country is run.]]> 2016-10-12 15:30:40 UTC https://padlet.com/danielmor8661/yicja105ux7s/wish/130167631 danielmor8661 https://padlet.com/danielmor8661/yicja105ux7s/wish/131178020 Communism in Eurasia was weaker than after communism. The country's GDP per capita greatly improved after the fall of communism, and the mortality rate in Russia dropped significantly. This all shows that the economy was stronger after communism.]]> 2016-10-17 15:17:11 UTC https://padlet.com/danielmor8661/yicja105ux7s/wish/131178020 danielmor8661 https://padlet.com/danielmor8661/yicja105ux7s/wish/131506451 2016-10-18 15:12:08 UTC https://padlet.com/danielmor8661/yicja105ux7s/wish/131506451 danielmor8661 https://padlet.com/danielmor8661/yicja105ux7s/wish/132379895 2016-10-21 15:37:20 UTC https://padlet.com/danielmor8661/yicja105ux7s/wish/132379895
