Chapter 8 Need And Classification Of Industries Case Study
Chapter 8 - Need and Classification of Industries
Life Skills
Industrial facilities across the globe have already released over 5 million tonnes of toxic chemicals. These chemicals are production-related wastes and pollutants. Many industries also emit high amount of carbon dioxide gas. Other gaseous pollutants produced by industries across the globe include carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), nitrogen oxides, etc.
Organise a group activity to prepare a poster or model to list the most polluting industries in the world.
Integration
Raw material is simply the unprocessed material obtained from nature. It is processed to produce goods, energy and intermediate or finished materials.
For example, cotton acts as one of …show more content…
It helps Australia to generate over AUD$3 billion of income annually. However, environmental threats such as climate change, pollution and fishing, have negatively affected the health of the reef. Other factors that contribute in loss of habitat include the shipping accidents, oil spills, tropical cyclones, etc.
List the different conservation efforts launched by the Government of Australia, to protect the Great Barrier Reef.
Integration
Since its separation from Gondwana 99 million years ago, Australia exists in a geographic isolation. This has significantly affected the evolution of Australian fauna. In Australia, there are a number of animal species that are unique to this land. The continent shows the lack of native placental mammals. Marsupial mammals who raise their young in a pouch are the dominant mammalian group.
Describe the features of the Tasmanian tiger, who was once the top predator in Australia.
Chapter 13 – Africa
Life Skills
In the late 19th century, major European powers were able to take control of most of the African continent. After the conclusion of World War II, a number of independence movements gained traction in Africa. Decolonisation of Africa forced British, French and Portuguese colonists to give back the control of Africa to its native
