Answer:
Managing the risks facing cold environments Cold environments provide one of the last wilderness areas on Earth and have fragile ecosystems. Economic development puts these ecosystems at serious risk of damage and therefore these areas need to be protected. If man kind are exposed to this harsh environments, we may suffer from pneumonia, which would ultimately lead to death, if no medical assistance is acquired, and this is typically not available in colder climates, such as the North Pole.
Which of the following is NOT a proposed method of interstellar travel?
A. Bussard Ramjet
B. Interstellar fluid travel
C. Solar Sail
D. Warp Drive
Answer: C. solar sail
Explanation: hope I'm right if I'm wrong I'm sorry
Answer: C (Educated Guess, read about wind below)
Explanation:
It’s a guess, more so a presumption. A solar sail would require what a sail on earth does to make its main part move..... wind flow. Yet wind flow, aka convection, is caused by the sun warming air on different parts of the earth, increasing its pressure, pushing away cold air, creating wind. There isn’t any surface in space that the heat can build upon... not knowing anything about the other choices, this about choice C is enough to convince me that it is the one that is not effective.

Help ASAP 20 points! i'm doing a CER for science and i need the evidence.... It's about Oxbow lakes! Thank you and PLEASE ANSWER NOW!
Answer: An oxbow lake starts out as a curve, or meander, in a river. A lake forms as the river finds a different, shorter, course. The meander becomes an oxbow lake along the side of the river.
Oxbow lakes usually form in flat, low-lying plains close to where the river empties into another body of water. On these plains, rivers often have wide meanders.
Meanders that form oxbow lakes have two sets of curves: one curving away from the straight path of the river and one curving back. The corners of the curves closest to each other are called concave banks. The concave banks erode over time. The force of the rivers flowing water wears away the land on the meanders concave banks.
The banks opposite the concave banks are called convex banks. The opposite of erosion happens here. Silt and sediment build up on convex banks. This build-up is called deposition.
Erosion and deposition eventually cause a new channel to be cut through the small piece of land at the narrow end of the meander. The river makes a shortcut. Oxbow lakes are the remains of the bend in the river.
Oxbow lakes are stillwater lakes. This means that water does not flow into or out of them. There is no stream or spring feeding the lake, and it doesnt have a natural outlet. Oxbow lakes often become swamps or bogs, and they often dry up as their water evaporates.
Oxbow lakes can be rich wildlife habitats. Along the Amazon River in South America, oxbow lakes are common and their still waters provide a unique habitat for plants and wildlife. Giant river otters frequently live in the Amazons oxbow lakes, and feed on about 5 kilograms (11 pounds) of fish per day.
People often create oxbow lakes. The Mississippi River is shorter now than it was in the 19th century, for instance, because engineers have cut off hundreds of meanders. This created hundreds of oxbow lakes. These lakes eventually dried up to create acres of land for farming, housing, and industry.
An oxbow lake gets its name from the U-shaped collar placed around an oxs neck to which a plow is attached. It can also be called a horseshoe lake, a loop lake, or a cutoff lake.

Answer:
There are four major issues affecting the oilsands: declining price outlooks, market access, a reduction in investment and climate change pressures.
Explanation:
The environmental consequences of oil production from Alberta's tar sands are major, beginning with its effect on climate change. North America's transition to oil from the tar sands not only perpetuates, but actually worsens, emissions of greenhouse gas pollution from oil consumption.
