Electricity and Heat Production (25% of 2010 global greenhouse gas emissions): The burning of coal, natural gas, and oil for electricity and heat is the largest single source of global greenhouse gas emissions.
The rivers were like the major highways of today because at that time there were not any paths wide enough for the travel of people or the supplies they needed. The rivers played a large part in the commerce and settlement of the interior of Virginia. Large ships couldn't go up the James but would dock where Richmond is now and the supplies would be traded to smaller boats going up-river.
<u>Answer:</u>
String of small volcanic islands most likely form at convergent ocean-ocean boundary
.
<u>Explanation:</u>
When an oceanic tectonic plate undergoes subduction beneath another oceanic tectonic plate, giving rise to a ridge formed between the two oceanic crusts, molten magma rises from the mantle and erupts through the boundaries of the ocean crust.
This causes a large amount of lava to deposit on the ocean floor. Eventually, the accumulated lava rises over the sea level forming an island over many years. Sometimes through this process of convergence and subduction, a whole chain of volcanic islands is formed and this type of string of volcanic islands is called volcanic arcs.
