One way to reduce uncertainty is to increase the number of specific and general environmental forces that are interconnected. Be
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

<u>False</u>

Explanation:

  • The environment is dynamic whole understanding it imparts is quite essential as to reduce the uncertainties one does not need to increase the flow of general environment and specific forces.
  • This may create a reverse loop in the system and create hindrances in the environmental settings. As the environment is likely to create opportunities for the growth and development of man and his surroundings.
  • Because if one creates a positive change does not necessarily mean that the change may be positive such as a rise in temperature in summer or the reaction of the body etc. Taking the example of climate change that is the biggest system on earth is due to the man's impact on earth which has reacted to him.

Which best describes how storm water runoff pollutes Puget Sound?
vivado [14]

Answer:

Rain washes pollutants off streets and into storm drains, which drain into Puget Sound.

Explanation:

"Puget Sound" is a Pacific Ocean inlet that is located in Washington's northwestern coast. It is said that the name "Puget Sound" was given by George Vancouver in<em> 1792,</em> in honor of a lieutenant, Peter Puget, who was very helpful in guiding him through his expedition.

Puget Sound is home to many marine species, such as salmon, Pacific rods, harbor seals, Pacific herring and the like. However, some of these, like the <em>"Olympia oysters,"</em> have been depleted because of human activities. The recession of many species in this area has been increasing over time. It is said that the inlet was contaminated with radioactive water in 1978, when a submarine accidentally released the radioactive water into Puget Sounds.

Another reason for its buildup of pollution is through the <u>"storm water's run-off." </u>When a storm comes, it hits infrastructure's roofs and other surfaces or pollutants. The debris are carried into the drains by rain and are then drained further into Puget Sound.

The toxic chemicals that are carried primarily comes from the roofing materials or human's everyday products.

nikitadnepr [17]

The maximum amount of electricity that on-shore wind farms can produce is 200 kWh/d per person under ideal conditions i.e. covering the entire nation in wind turbines.

The following steps are taken in the energy conversion process while producing electricity from wind turbines:

First, the wind strikes the turbine blades and transfers its kinetic energy to them. A generator is attached to the turbine blades. The generator shaft is turned by the kinetic energy of the turbine blades.

The generator then produces electricity out of the kinetic energy of the blades.
