    Our Drive for natural resources is what keeps us able to move forward as a civilization. However there is a line that can be crossed when it comes to the ethics of harvesting resources from our own planet. Since China is a massive country with one of the biggest economy in the world there hold on the global timber market is great. According to the article “China’s Appetite for Wood Takes a Heavy Toll on Forests” on Global Policy Form they use up very large large portion of the timber they go and harvest, “ consuming more than 400 million cubic meters of timber annually to feed both its burgeoning exports and growing domestic demands.” Of course a country is able to use their own resources as they please but at the expense of wiping clean…

    Coir Research Paper

    • 222 Words

    Coir has many uses throughout the horticulture and agriculture industries as a favourable product used to maintain optimal flora health. Coir is used as a substitute for sphagnum moss, found in peat, that is a constituent of many potting soil varieties to increase soil pH conditions; suitable for plants that thrive in more acidic conditions. In addition, coir is useful as covering brush for smaller plantations to deter snails from subsisting on maturing plants, retaining moisture, maintaining garden structure and trapping air. The biodegradability of coir makes for a favourable environmentally sustainable practice, however incomplete decomposition of coconut fibres can result in nitrogen deficiencies within the exposed plant and surrounding environments. These abnormal levels can be counteracted by adding nitrogen supplements into the coir mixture. Coir is also considered to be more environmentally sustainable through reducing ecosystem damage resulting from current practices involved in peat extraction and the greenhouse gas emissions associated with processing.…

Inkjet printing involves squeezing fluid filled with cells, the "ink" onto the surface of the log. But it’s hard to get them to be flat in single cell layers. You put them precisely where you want and do so quickly. On top of that, the survival rate of cells is often just 50% to 80%.…
