Green algae have many similarities to land plants. It has many variety body types and the multicellular forms do not have cells separated into tissues‚ which is what divides green algae from land plants. Green algae are a very diverse group of freshwater algae. Many green algae form long filaments. The cells stay attached after they divide. Spirogyra can become so numerous they form dense mats of growth in surfaces of ponds‚ which is called pond scum. This pond scum is interesting to see through

This presentation is based on Green Energy and the affect of economy on it. The use of renewable energy is on the rise around the world. The costs of this renewable energy is relatively costly. This means in the long run over time the costs will be paid for and consumers will see a lower energy bill. There has been great achievements in smaller countries with the introduction of green energy. They have seen how useful this is and the way it provides electricity with no problems. Many countries

Green buildings have greater payoffs than the cost to construct them making them a good investment over using standard building sites and materials. Many components play into the construction and design of a green building including location and building materials (just to name a few). Green buildings‚ whether they are homes‚ offices‚ or schools‚ are built to reduce pollution‚ conserve energy used‚ and to more efficiently use renewable resources. Several practices that are now used by those “going

[pic] The Green Revolution The world’s worst recorded food disaster occurred in 1943 in British-ruled India. Known as the Bengal Famine‚ an estimated 4 million people died of hunger that year in eastern India (which included today’s Bangladesh). Initially‚ this catastrophe was attributed to an acute shortfall in food production in the area. However‚ Indian economist Amartya Sen (recipient of the Nobel Prize for Economics‚ 1998) has established that while food shortage was a contributor to the

In this article‚ Buffam discusses the potential risks that green roof runoff can have on downstream ecosystems. Though beneficial in some areas‚ storm water runoff from these roofs have been found to seep harmful chemicals that can contaminate water quality. Sources of phosphorous‚ carbon‚ copper and iron have all been identified as a part of the hazardous runoff. It has been anticipated that these green roof ecosystems have fluctuating runoff concentrations depending on plant production‚ microscopic
