Flooding has as its main motivation the drainage of cities and urban occupation. In addition to the common causes of man-made floods such as excess pollution, urbanization is a significant contributor to flooding. The unregulated use of geographical spaces for the construction of cities increases soil sealing, which prevents water from evaporating effectively and thus causing runoff. Another factor is the precarious water drainage system and the excess waste produced and disposed of in an irregular manner that causes trench clogging, pollution and increases the level of the rivers.

Did oligarchs earn their money in a honest way?
wel
Hey there!
Oligarchy is rule by the rich, usually aristocrats. They indeed did not get their money in an honest way. In most oligarchies, they made laws that benefitted themselves, like unfair tax and odd charges. A common outcome of this type of government is making the rich richer and the poor poorer.

Write about mesosphere and Ionosphere​
lora16 [44]

Answer:

1. The mesosphere is very important for earth’s protection. The mesosphere burns up most meteors and asteroids before they are able to reach the earth’s surface. The mesosphere is the coldest atmospheric layer surrounding the earth. It becomes cold enough to freeze water vapour in its atmosphere into ice clouds.

2. the layer of the earth's atmosphere that contains a high concentration of ions and free electrons and is able to reflect radio waves. It lies above the mesosphere and extends from about 50 to 600 miles (80 to 1,000 km) above the earth's surface.
