Deer, moose, elk, black bear, mink, wolves, and wolverines are best associated with the Mediterranean Woodland and Scrub Boreal
maksim [4K]

Answer:

Boreal forest

Explanation:

The boreal forest is a biome that is found in the Northern Hemisphere. It is located between the temperate forests and the tundra. These forests are dominated by coniferous trees. The climate is continental, with the winters being very cold and snowy, while the summers are pleasant with mild temperatures. The animals that live in these forests are the elk, moose, deer, wolverines, wolves, black bears, mink, foxes, lynx, among others. All these animals have special adaptations that enable them to live in this biome. They all have thick fur for most of the year, only shedding slightly during the summer.Their paws tend to winder and have goo isolation so that they can walk easily on the snow and avoid frostbite. It is not a biome that has very big diversity in flora and fauna, but it is not a one that lacks in it as well.

Which of the following are ways in which the Madrid Protocol protects Antarctica?
amm1812

Answer:

prohibits the introduction of invasive species

controls the kind of waste and pollutants allowed

assesses human influence on the environment

designates protected zones on the continent

Explanation:

These four key terms are some of what the Madrid Protocol includes.

Prohibiting the introduction of invasive species keeps the ecosystem from being dominated and/or destroyed by a single species that the ecosystem is not built to handle.

Controlling the kind of waste and pollutants allowed on the continent ensures that the environment remains stable without the influence of outside chemicals, such as oil or carbon emissions that could harm the ecosystems.

Assessing human influence on the environment keeps track who does what and how they do it, essentially preventing extreme human action from being taken so as to preserve Antarctica's natural order.

Designating protected zones on the continent that can only be accessed with special permits ensures that only people who require access for research or whatnot, or more simply, qualified personnel, are able to enter these zones, so as to keep contact down to a minimum and further preserve Antarctica's natural environment.

How is politics related to climate change? How does politics define climate change?
avanturin [10]

Answer:

i love you :)

Explanation:

The complex politics of global warming results from numerous cofactors arising from the global economy's dependence on carbon dioxide (CO2) emitting fossil fuels; and because greenhouse gases such as CO2, methane and N2O (mostly from agriculture) cause global warming.[1]

1. Implications to all aspects of a nation-state's economy: The vast majority of the world economy relies on energy sources or manufacturing techniques that release greenhouse gases at almost every stage of production, transportation, storage, delivery & disposal while a consensus of the world's scientists attribute global warming to the release of CO2 and other greenhouse gases. This intimate linkage between global warming and economic vitality implicates almost every aspect of a nation-state's economy.

2. Industrialization of the developing world: As developing nations industrialize their energy needs increase and since conventional energy sources produce CO2, the CO2 emissions of developing countries are beginning to rise at a time when the scientific community, global governance institutions and advocacy groups are telling the world that CO2 emissions should be decreasing.

3. Metric selection (transparency) and perceived responsibility / ability to respond: Among the countries of the world, disagreements exist over which greenhouse gas emission metrics should be used like total emissions per year, per capita emissions per year, CO2 emissions only, deforestation emissions, livestock emissions or even total historical emissions. Historically, the release of CO2 has not been even among all nation-states, and nation-states have challenges with determining who should restrict emissions and at what point of their industrial development they should be subject to such commitments;

4. Vulnerable developing countries and developed country legacy emissions: Some developing nations blame the developed world for having created the global warming crisis because it was the developed countries that emitted most of the CO2 over the twentieth century and vulnerable countries perceive that it should be the developed countries that should pay to fix the problem;

5. Consensus-driven global governance models: The global governance institutions that evolved during the 20th century are all consensus driven deliberative forums where agreement is difficult to achieve and even when agreement is achieved it is almost impossible to enforce;

6. Well organized and funded special-interest lobbying bodies: Special interest lobbying by well organized groups, such as the fossil fuels lobby, distort and amplify aspects of the challenge.
