Question

The combination of dominant tree species in Eastern forests will likely change in the future. Some forest types, including spruce/fir and maple/beech/birch, may shrink significantly or disappear altogether, depending on how greatly carbon dioxide emissions increase in the future. How would you adapt your behavior to create a different scenario, one in which the was no substantial change in the tree species over time? Select the tactic that would be of NO help.
A) Increase your demand for green products and services to reduce your carbon footprint.
B) Consider alternate energy resources that are not carbon-based: solar or wind energy.
C) Eat locally-produced and organic food; cur meat and dairy consumption.
D) Manage lands for restoration and watershed conservation.

Answer 1

Answer:

The tactic which will be of no help will be A) Increase your demand for green products and services to reduce your carbon footprint.

Explanation:

Increasing demand for green products will require the cutting down of trees for meeting up the needs. Hence, lesser the trees, more will be the carbon dioxide as trees tend to take up carbon dioxide and use it in the process of photosynthesis.

Also, by using green products, our carbon footprint will not be reduced because the amount of carbon dioxide we release will remain the same. Hence, option A is the correct option.
