Why some flowers greet us each spring

    Why some flowers greet us each spring

       Flower's DNA cause them to survive differently. Annuals, will bloom every year and yet die every year, and perennials will survive year after year. Perennials will try to conserve alive cells during the winter to be able to regrow in the spring. Scientist are working on being able to turn non-perennials into perennials to make crops that do not need to be replanted.
.     I think this is important because it can revolutionize the way we grow food. The farming industry will become way more profitable. This can make food cheaper and change the economy.

    I think the idea of turning non-perennials into perennials is not a great one because there is probably a reason behind why non-perennials are non-perennials. Even though there is a point in saving money by not having to replant crops, how much money is going to have to go into the crop transition from a non-perennial into a perennial? By that time, is it even worth transforming the crop? Yes, this idea would revolutionize the way we grow food, but in the end, how much has to give in order to take?

    This would help the ecosystem and could also would be great for others who consume more food then others

    I get that this could be a good way to revolutionize the way we grow our food, I think we shouldn't alter nature, it's already giving us enough.

Dual-fuel vehicles

A recent study shows that dual- fuel vehicles are benefiting the population but, turns out they are costing the environment. While substituting gasoline for ethanol gases, it causes an increase of ultra fine particle matter, with a 30% increase of atmospheric concentration. The problem is that they are less then 50 nanometers in diameter. The nano particles are also not track or regulated by the environmental agencies. We inhale these gases everyday, inhaling ethanol. The most practical way to reduce greenhouse gases is using electric, hybrid and biofuel care.   https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2017/08/170828124546.htm

Acid Zone in Chesapeake Bay Found

     According to the University of Delaware, the Chesapeake Bay is becoming acidic as it has gone to 7.4 pH from an average of 8.2. The oxidation of ammonia and hydrogen sulfide may be the factor that is leading to the higher acidity levels in coastal oceans, but it can eventually lead to more of open oceans. Naturally the waters of the Chesapeake Bay have a regulatory system that holds back the increase of acidity levels in the area, and this works as the dissolving of living shells, non-living aragonite, and calcite minerals. Though nature has a path to keep the waters in the Chesapeake Bay, humans should take more care of our Earth as we have a role in polluting the water and rising the acidity levels in coastal oceans. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2017/08/170828093737.htm
