By planting plants it helps the environment by purifying the air and giving us better oxygen. This picture shows by gardening, these plants will also help feed animals in the environment in order to survive.]]> 2018-09-05 20:47:45 UTC https://padlet.com/npimente/zevvvpmbax1r/wish/278196899 npimente https://padlet.com/npimente/zevvvpmbax1r/wish/284056945 I picked this video because its an easy way to remember how photosynthesis works. I like how simple and straight to the point it Is and summarizes the whole important process of photosynthesis. I tried to look for a video that I would choose to show anyone who is having trouble remembering the process of photosynthesis and I think the video would be a good tool for those who are struggling. ]]> 2018-09-20 17:35:56 UTC https://padlet.com/npimente/zevvvpmbax1r/wish/284056945 npimente https://padlet.com/npimente/zevvvpmbax1r/wish/289414382
This mountain shrub is a Gymnosperm and it's called the Betula Megrelica. This shrub is also more commonly known as Megrelian Birch and is only found in the natural range of Georgia. It's most unique characteristics are its metallic bark and yellow leaves in the fall.This shrub is thought to have been protected from the great ice ages of the past which makes it all the more special to botanist.

The reason for this is because of the rapid undergoing of global warming and destruction of the ozone layer in the North and South Pole. The destruction of the ozone layer is imperative because this will allow ultraviolet rays to harm the tundra biome. Not to mention that this will also cause harm to the vegetation and animal species living in this biome. As a result, this will most certainly disrupt the Tundras overall ecosystem. ]]> 2018-10-18 20:30:19 UTC https://padlet.com/npimente/zevvvpmbax1r/wish/294605563 npimente https://padlet.com/npimente/zevvvpmbax1r/wish/299669185 The Neolithic revolution had a major affect on human population by creating easier and faster ways to farm by making farming tools and making more food. The farming tools started of being made as wood and then advanced to metal in which eventually transitioned to farm animals pulling plows. This created a surplus of crops and food, and as a result had a rise in population.  ]]> 2018-11-02 04:41:03 UTC https://padlet.com/npimente/zevvvpmbax1r/wish/299669185 npimente https://padlet.com/npimente/zevvvpmbax1r/wish/303554305 I chose this picture because I think it accurately represents how tractors and plows helped faming during the third agricultural revolution. This invention reduced the amount of laborers and time it took to plant and harvest crops. The tractor also helped expand agricultural land which resulted in an abundance of crops. ]]> 2018-11-13 03:10:49 UTC https://padlet.com/npimente/zevvvpmbax1r/wish/303554305 npimente https://padlet.com/npimente/zevvvpmbax1r/wish/309604955 I chose caffeine as one of the most used chemicals that derived from a plant. Caffeine is an alkaloid chemical compound that originally derived from more than 50 plants such as coffee beans, cocoa beans, Kola nuts and tea leaves. Caffeine has become such a huge part in our everyday products we buy. It can be found in some of these examples such as coffee, energy drinks, soft drinks, and chocolate. Some people can't even function and go on with their day without caffeine and I just think its amazing how much we depend on it. ]]> 2018-11-30 00:20:04 UTC https://padlet.com/npimente/zevvvpmbax1r/wish/309604955 npimente https://padlet.com/npimente/zevvvpmbax1r/wish/314516506 I like this video a lot because it helps to visually represent what the world and environment will look like years from now. It talks about specific events like the sea level rising due to the ice melting in Antartica and in turn having massive hurricanes. It also mentions how the world may have political instability and famine around the world. I think its really important to have a perspective as to what we'er heading towards because then people may care to help make a change, ]]> 2018-12-14 01:34:39 UTC https://padlet.com/npimente/zevvvpmbax1r/wish/314516506
