Answer: Plastic Pollution
In 1950, the world produced more than 2 million tons of plastic per year. By 2015, this annual production swelled to 419 million tons and exacerbating plastic waste in the environment.
A report by science journal, Nature, determined that currently, roughly 11 million tons of plastic make its way into the oceans every year, harming wildlife habitats and the animals that live in them. The research found that if no action is taken, the plastic crisis will grow to 29 million metric tons per year by 2040. If we include microplastics into this, the cumulative amount of plastic in the ocean could reach 600 million tons by 2040.
Shockingly, National Geographic found that 91% of all plastic that has ever been made is not recycled, representing not only one of the biggest environmental problems of our lifetime, but another massive market failure. Considering that plastic takes 400 years to decompose, it will be many generations until it ceases to exist. There’s no telling what the irreversible effects of plastic pollution will have on the environment in the long run.
By weakening and fracturing rock, weathering processes release nutrients and improve subsurface permeability. It is helpful to limit the physical attributes of materials produced by weathering inside the crucial zone in order to better understand these processes.
The permeability, strength, and seismic anisotropy of foliated rocks can be measured geophysically, whereas the first two have effects on hydrology and geomorphology. Characterizing weathering-dependent changes in rock fabric with depth may have a variety of implications because each of these types of anisotropy is connected to rock fabric.
The key points are:
- In the critical zone, seismic surveys of weathered material reveal seismic anisotropy magnitudes that can reach 36% and that change with depth.
- The strike of foliation and fracture planes found in bedrock coincides with the fast direction of wave propagation in weathered materials.
- As bedrock is exhumed toward the surface, in-situ weathering processes probably intensify the anisotropy already existing in the rock.

Answer:
Settlement patterns. Southeast Asia is predominantly rural: three-fourths of the people live in nonurban areas. Moreover, population is heavily clustered in fertile river valleys and especially in delta areas, such as those of the Mekong and Irrawaddy rivers.Most of the region's people live in the more temperate climate zones. In East Asia, for example, the coastal regions of Central and Southern China, Japan, and South Korea are primarily a humid temperate climate.
