Which of the following regions experienced the greatest impact from deforestation between 1990 and 2010?  <span>A. the Amazon Rainforest of South America</span>

The correct answer is - A. the Amazon Rainforest of South America.

The Amazon rainforest in South America, mostly located on the territory of Brazil, in the northern half of the country, has experienced the biggest deforestation in the world in the two decades between 1990 and 2010.

One of the biggest reasons for this extensive deforestation is that the Amazon is very beneficial for the Brazilian economy, so the country has been using the resources it offers in order to strengthen its economy.

Another reason has been that Brazil thought that it is unfair that the most powerful economies in the world, like the United States for example, have been systematically destroying their forests because of their economic interest, so they have the right to do so since it is in their own territory.

Type of Erosion Control<span>                          </span>Pros of Using this Control
- Jetties                                                   - protect buildings on beaches from losing sand
- Breakwaters                                          - Stop the waves from hitting the beach
- Beach Renourishment                          - easy way to prevent sand erosion
- Planting of dune grasses and plants    - roots hold sand together and make it more difficult to wash away
                                                       Cons of Using this Control
- can seriously affect the tidal circulation and the health of wetlands
- changes profile of the beach
- can cause bottom organisms and habitats to e smothered by muddy water
- can make the beaches difficult to use for recreation

<span>Paragraph:
</span>       I think that Breakwaters<span> are the best to use. One reason is the only major con that is has is changing the profile of the beach instead of harming wildlife and taking away funding (recreational use.) Another reason is that the rocks used provide great climbing tools for beachgoers and might entertain them. A third reason is that breakwaters can be underground as well, not damaging the beach very much. Finally, they save millions of dollars in replacing sand.</span>

Asia has 60% of the world's population, but only 20% of the languages dying. Why might that be?
Advocard [28]

The percentage of languages that are dying out in Asia is only around 20% from the total number of languages dying out in the world, despite it having around 60% of the global population is due to two reasons:

- <em>Number of languages;</em>

Asia, even though it has around 60% of the world's population, it only has around one third of the languages spoken in the world, so automatically there's a big disproportion between the number of population and number of languages, thus giving it a smaller percentage of languages dying out.

- <em>Keeping the tradition;</em>

Lots of Asian nations are not very willing to let their traditional language to die out and continue to speak it. Apart from the traditional point of view, another reason is that Asia has global economic powers, so learning languages like the English or Spanish are not of great benefit in general, so the pressure is much lesser.
