Currently, humans are emitting around 29 billion tonnes of carbon dioxide<span> into the atmosphere per year. Around 43% remains in the atmosphere - this is called the 'airborne fraction'. The rest is absorbed by vegetation and the oceans. While there are questions over how much the airborne fraction is increasing, it is clear that the total amount of CO2 in the atmosphere is increasing dramatically. Current CO2 levels are the highest in 15 million years.</span>

why might it be beneficial to regulate what species of plats and animals people are allowed to own in particular environments
Neko [114]
Hi there!

Regulating species and plants in a certain area is beneficial for a lot of reasons. Below I'll list one of the most important reasons for regulating.

- Invasive species. As a direct result of the danger invasive species pose, regulating animals and plants in an area can help reduce the risk of a non-native species wrecking havoc on the environment. In the past and as of today many pet owners buy plants and animals from across the globe. Once they get too big some release them into the environment without any regards for the potential disaster it could bring. An example of this would be the Burmese Python which completely upset the ecosystem of souther Florida once let loose.

How are the Kissimmee River, Lake Okeechobee, and the Everglades related?
Taya2010 [7]
Between 1962 and 1971, the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) channeled the Kissimmee River and created a 30-foot deep, 300-foot wide, 56 mile long drainage canal (C-38). This project converted 44% of the floodplain to pasture, draining approximately 31,000 acres of wetlands. Before channelization, the River was a haven for wildlife, including at least 39 species of fish and 38 species of water birds.

Kissimmee River Restoration began in 1992 and has been the most successful ecosystem restoration initiative to date. By re-channelizing the River to replicate its natural paths, birds and other wildlife responded more quickly than anticipated and demonstrated the resiliency of nature. This success has been used all over the world to justify the value of ecosystem restoration. When Kissimmee River Restoration is completed in 2015, more than 40 square miles of the River-floodplain ecosystem will be restored, including almost 20,000 acres of wetlands and 44 miles of historic river channel.
