Answer:

Pros - Canada’s diamond industry was launched from a standstill in the late 1990s after the discovery of one of the gems at Point Lake, NWT. Since then, the industry has surged and Canada now produces 15 percent of the world’s diamond supply and is the third largest producer of diamonds after Botswana and Russia.

Diamond mining has also led to a marked increase in Northern jobs.

Cons - Environmental impacts. Issues such as destruction or loss of habitat, water contamination, excessive waste (rock, soil etc…) and the possibility of heavy metals or toxins leeching into the water table are ever-present factors.

Answer:

Explanation:

it hasn't been 1 decade between 1822-1976 because a decade is only 10 years so you would subtract 1976-1822 which equals 154 then if u divide that by 10 you get 15.4 so if you round it you would basically get 15 decades. Hope this helped! :)

3.which new type of warfare was responsible for civilization and military deaths and was banned after the war?

Murrr4er [49]

This is probably biological warfare because it's not allowed according to the Geneva congress. Using poisons, toxic matters, viruses and bacteria, as well as flamethrowers and things like that are forbidden or else it will be considered a war crime and people will answer for it. It was practiced in World War 1 but was forbidden after.
