• What is the role of biodiversity in ecosystem productivity?

3.Scientific research indicates sea levels worldwide have been rising at a rate of 3.5 millimeters per year since the early 1990s. The trend, linked to global warming, puts thousands of coastal cities, like Venice, Italy, and even whole islands at risk of being claimed by the ocean.

• What is the rate of sea level rise since the early 1990s?
• What is the cause of sea level rise?

4.Over the past century, the burning of fossil fuels and other human and natural activities have released enormous amounts of heat-trapping gases into the atmosphere.

• What activities have released heat-trapping gases into the atmosphere?
• What is the effect of heat-trapping gases on the atmosphere?

5.CFCs were developed in the early 1930s and are used in a variety of industrial, commercial, and household applications.

• When were CFCs developed?
• In what applications are CFCs used?

6.These insects are pests for farmers.

• What are these insects?
• How do they affect farmers?

7.The Kyoto Protocol was adopted on 11 December 1997 and entered into force on 16 February 2005. Many developed countries agreed to reduce their emissions of greenhouse gases.

• When was the Kyoto Protocol adopted and entered into force?

• What was the goal of the Kyoto Protocol?

8.Coral reefs are the most diverse and beautiful of all marine habitats.

• What is the characteristic of coral reefs?
• What type of habitat are coral reefs?

9.GMOs are making news nearly every day and issues surrounding their safety are a source of ongoing debate in the food and biotechnology industry.

• What are GMOs?
• Why are there safety issues surrounding GMOs?

10.Habitat disruption comes in many forms, including fires, clear-cutting for agriculture, ranching and development, unsustainable logging for timber, and degradation due to erosion.

• What are some forms of habitat disruption?
• How does habitat disruption occur?

11.Acid rain is a serious environmental problem. It is particularly damaging to lakes, streams, and forests and the plants and animals that live in these ecosystems.

• What is acid rain?
• What ecosystems are particularly vulnerable to acid rain?

12.Houston Ship Channel reopens tomorrow. However, the oil spill cleanup will continue.

• What is reopening tomorrow?
• What cleanup will continue?
