Explain the environmental challenges facing a rapidly developing Asia. Identify three challenges faced on this continent.
Lena [83]

Answer:

1. Endangered Species conservation

2. Air Pollution

3. Destruction of Coral Reefs

Explanation:

"Asia sits almost entirely in the tropics, and as such, is covered in rich, dense, biologically diverse jungle." Poachers, large companies exploiting land, small farms,(Etc), have always been a large factor of how hard it is to conserve the endangered species.

Small farms and large companies burn fires trying to clear land of trees(among other things.) So that then they can exploit the land the following year.

Over the past several decades, Asia's famous coral reefs have always been in dismay. This is the result of several factors like; 1. The ocean absorbs most of the carbon dioxide we put into the atmosphere each year. While this helps reduce the effects of global warming (temporarily), it also means that more of that carbon is going to be converted into carbonic acid, increasing the ocean’s acidity level.

kondor19780726 [428]
<span>1)  The main factor that could hinder the forward progress of a message in a bottle in an ocean current is "Great Pacific Garbage Patch." which size is similar to one of Texas. It is a gyre of marine debris particles that contains a huge amount of pelagic plastics, chemical sludge and other debris that currents usually bring.
2) The factor which could aid the movement is the force of a current which would take the bottle and the path of the current that flows in the right direction.According to the statistics of related investigations, this factor seems to be the only one that could could positively aid the movement.<span>
