Answer:

There is no cause for concern because human population growth is not correlated with the global ecological footprint.

Explanation:

The methodology of the ecological footprint is very wrong in that that it ignores the growth of the human population. The human population is not static in its numbers, and over the past century it increased significantly. Despite the slower growth nowadays, the population is still going up, and each individual should be taken into consideration for the ecological footprint because everyone has influence over it. If this is totally ignored, than the results and projections will be very misguiding and wrong, so it is an issue that has to be addressed so that the problem can be solved on the basis on correct and reliable data.

Describe<br> 2. What is the structure of Earth's atmosphere?
sergejj [24]

The atmosphere consists of 4 layers: the troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, and thermosphere. The troposphere is the lowest layer of the atmosphere. This is the layer where we live and where weather happens. Temperature in this layer generally decreases with height. The boundary between the stratosphere and the troposphere is called the tropopause. Above the tropopause lies the stratosphere. In this layer the temperature increases with height. This is because the stratosphere houses the ozone layer. The ozone layer is warm because it absorbs ultraviolet (UV) rays from the sun. The mesosphere is the layer above the stratosphere.This layer also contains ratios of nitrogen and oxygen similar to the troposphere, except the concentrations are 1000 times less and there is little water vapor there, so the air is too thin for weather to occur. The thermosphere is the uppermost layer of the atmosphere. In this layer the temperature increases with height because it is being directly heated by the sun.

I got this info from North Carolina Climate Office.
