<span>The ways for lessening the effect of increased carbon include reducing the components of the carbon footprint (the amount of carbon dioxide and other carbon compounds emitted due to the consumption of fossil fuels).</span> Air travel is one of the main components of the carbon footprint. <span>The solution for reducing the amount of carbon dioxide in the air is to burn fewer fossil fuels, but it is very difficult because the burning of fossil fuels is necessary for heating, electricity generation and transport.</span>

Power stations that burn fossil fuels to produce electricity are one of the main contributors of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and the way to reduce it is to use less electricity which can be done by turning down the heating at home, insulating home, <span>using low-energy lamps etc.</span>

Why cycus are called conifer? give its 3major characteristics features​
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

Cycads /ˈsaɪkædz/ are seed plants that typically have a stout and woody (ligneous) trunk with a crown of large, hard, stiff, evergreen and (usually) pinnate leaves. The species are dioecious, therefore the individual plants of a species are either male or female. Cycads vary in size from having trunks only a few centimeters to several meters tall. They typically grow very slowly[3] and live very long, with some specimens known to be as much as 1,000 years old.[citation needed] Because of their superficial resemblance, they are sometimes mistaken for palms or ferns, but they are not closely related to either group.

Cycads are gymnosperms (naked seeded), meaning their unfertilized seeds are open to the air to be directly fertilized by pollination, as contrasted with angiosperms, which have enclosed seeds with more complex fertilization arrangements. Cycads have very specialized pollinators, usually a specific species of beetle. Both male and female cycads bear cones (strobili), somewhat similar to conifer cones.

Cycads have been reported to fix nitrogen in association with various cyanobacteria living in the roots (the "coralloid" roots).[4] These photosynthetic bacteria produce a neurotoxin called BMAA that is found in the seeds of cycads. This neurotoxin may enter a human food chain as the cycad seeds may be eaten directly as a source of flour by humans or by wild or feral animals such as bats, and humans may eat these animals. It is hypothesized that this is a source of some neurological diseases in humans.[5][6]

Cycads all over the world are in decline, with four species on the brink of extinction and seven species having fewer than 100 plants left in the wild.[7] The plant has a very long fossil history, with evidence that they existed in greater abundance and in greater diversity before the Jurassic and late Triassic mass extinction events.

anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

The population of the dart frogs drop.

Explanation:

The population of the dart frogs, and other species that eat the dart frogs will drop.  The dart frogs will have a virus, but soon the other animals who eat the dart frogs will drop too because their food is going down.
