Answer:
While the developed world benefits from the modern explosion of technology, countries like Ethiopia continue to rely on their forefathers' methods for important daily tasks such as farming, cooling, and providing clean water. These activities are often physically challenging, time and energy intensive, and are often carried out by female family members in many such societies. Furthermore, they can damage the local ecology and climate, such as deforestation and soil erosion caused by the use of trees for firewood. Western technologies are often too complicated, expensive, unacceptable, and difficult to maintain in developing societies, so they are of little or no use in these situations.

The tropical rain forest is a forest of tall trees in a region of year-round warmth. An average of 50 to 260 inches of rain falls yearly. Rain forests belong to the tropical wet climate group.
Explanation:
- The temperature in a rain forest rarely gets higher than 93 °F or drops below 68 °F. The average humidity is between 77 and 88%, rainfall is often more than 100 inches a year. In monsoonal areas, there is a real dry season.
- Rainforests now cover less than 6% of Earth's land surface. Tropical rainforests produce 40% of Earth's oxygen.
- About 1/4 of all the medicines we use come from rainforest plants. Curare comes from a tropical vine, is used as an anesthetic and to relax muscles during surgery. Quinineis used to treat malaria.
- There are four very distinct layers of trees in a tropical rain forest. They are the emergent, upper canopy, understory, and forest floor.
- The soil of the tropical rainforests is shallow, poor in nutrients and without soluble minerals. Years of rainfall have washed away the nutrients in the soil obtained from weathered rocks.
- The tropical rain forest can be found in three major geographical areas around the world.
-
Central America in the the Amazon river basin. Africa - Zaire basin, with a small area in West Africa. Indo-Malaysia - west coast of India, Assam, Southeast Asia, New Guinea and Queensland, Australia.
