query: “We almost take forests as a given but we lose forest every year, which means we are diminishing them as a carbon sink.

positive: Carbon sink A carbon sink is a natural or artificial reservoir that accumulates and stores some carbon-containing chemical compound for an indefinite period . The process by which carbon sinks remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere is known as carbon sequestration . Public awareness of the significance of CO2 sinks has grown since passage of the Kyoto Protocol , which promotes their use as a form of carbon offset . There are also different strategies used to enhance this process .

positive: Forest A forest is a large area dominated by trees . Hundreds of more precise definitions of forest are used throughout the world , incorporating factors such as tree density , tree height , land use , legal standing and ecological function . According to the widely used Food and Agriculture Organization definition , forests covered four billion hectares ( 15 million square miles ) or approximately 30 percent of the world 's land area in 2006 .   Forests are the dominant terrestrial ecosystem of Earth , and are distributed across the globe . Forests account for 75 % of the gross primary productivity of the Earth 's biosphere , and contain 80 % of the Earth 's plant biomass .   Forests at different latitudes and elevations form distinctly different ecozones : boreal forests near the poles , tropical forests near the equator and temperate forests at mid-latitudes . Higher elevation areas tend to support forests similar to those at higher latitudes , and amount of precipitation also affects forest composition .   Human society and forests influence each other in both positive and negative ways . Forests provide ecosystem services to humans and serve as tourist attractions . Forests can also affect people 's health . Human activities , including harvesting forest resources , can negatively affect forest ecosystems .

positive: Deforestation Deforestation , clearance or clearing is the removal of a forest or stand of trees where the land is thereafter converted to a non-forest use . Examples of deforestation include conversion of forestland to farms , ranches , or urban use . The most concentrated deforestation occurs in tropical rainforests . About 30 % of Earth 's land surface is covered by forests .   Deforestation occurs for multiple reasons : trees are cut down to be used for building or sold as fuel , ( sometimes in the form of charcoal or timber ) , while cleared land is used as pasture for livestock and plantation . The removal of trees without sufficient reforestation has resulted in damage to habitat , biodiversity loss and aridity . It has adverse impacts on biosequestration of atmospheric carbon dioxide . Deforestation has also been used in war to deprive the enemy of vital resources and cover for its forces . Modern examples of this were the use of Agent Orange by the British military in Malaya during the Malayan Emergency and the United States military in Vietnam during the Vietnam War . As of 2005 , net deforestation rates have ceased to increase in countries with a per capita GDP of at least US$ 4,600 . Deforested regions typically incur significant adverse soil erosion and frequently degrade into wasteland .   Disregard of ascribed value , lax forest management and deficient environmental laws are some of the factors that allow deforestation to occur on a large scale . In many countries , deforestation , both naturally occurring and human-induced , is an ongoing issue . Deforestation causes extinction , changes to climatic conditions , desertification , and displacement of populations as observed by current conditions and in the past through the fossil record . More than half of all plant and land animal species in the world live in tropical forests .   Between 2000 and 2012 , 2.3 e6sqkm of forests around the world were cut down . As a result of deforestation , only 6.2 e6km2 remain of the original 16 e6km2 of forest that formerly covered the Earth .

positive: Reducing emissions from deforestation and forest degradation Reducing emissions from deforestation and forest degradation and the role of conservation , sustainable management of forests and enhancement of forest carbon stocks in developing countries ( REDD + ) was first negotiated under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change ( UNFCCC ) since 2005 , with the objective of mitigating climate change through reducing net emissions of greenhouse gases through enhanced forest management in developing countries . Most of the key REDD + decisions were completed by 2013 , with the final pieces of the rulebook finished in 2015 .   In the last two decades , various studies estimate that land use change , including deforestation and forest degradation , accounts for 12-29 % of global greenhouse gas emissions . For this reason the inclusion of reducing emissions from land use change is considered essential to achieve the objectives of the UNFCCC .   During the negotiations for the Kyoto Protocol , and then in particular its Clean Development Mechanism ( CDM ) , the inclusion of tropical forest management was debated but eventually dropped due to anticipated methodological difficulties in establishing -- in particular -- additionality and leakage ( detrimental effects outside of the project area attributable to project activities ) . What remained on forestry was `` Afforestation and Reforestation '' , sectoral scope 14 of the CDM . Under this sectoral scope areas of land that had no forest cover since 1990 could be replanted with commercial or indigenous tree species . In its first eight years of operation 52 projects had been registered under the `` Afforestation and Reforestation '' scope of the CDM . The cumbersome administrative procedures and corresponding high transaction costs are often blamed for this slow uptake . Beyond the CDM , all developed countries that were parties to the Kyoto Protocol also committed to measuring and reporting on efforts to reduce net greenhouse gas emissions from forests . The United States also measures and reports on the net greenhouse gas sequestration in its forests .   In response to what many perceived to be a failure to address a major source of global greenhouse gas emissions , the Coalition for Rainforest Nations ( CfRN ) was established and in 2005 they proposed to the Conference of the Parties to the UNFCCC policy approaches and positive incentives for the reduction of emissions of greenhouse gases stemming from tropical deforestation and forest degradation as a climate change mitigation measure .

negative: Opaque forest problem In computational geometry , The opaque forest problem can be stated as follows : `` Given a convex polygon C in the plane , determine the minimal forest T of closed , bounded line segments such that every line through C also intersects T '' . T is said to be the opaque forest , or barrier of C. C is said to be the coverage of T . While any forest that covers C is a barrier of C , we wish to find the one with shortest length .   It may be the case that T is constrained to be strictly interior or exterior to C . In this case , we specifically refer to a barrier as interior or exterior . Otherwise , the barrier is assumed to have no constraints on its location .

negative: Geometric–harmonic mean In mathematics , the geometric -- harmonic mean M ( x , y ) of two positive real numbers x and y is defined as follows : we form the geometric mean of g0 = x and h0 = y and call it g1 , i.e. g1 is the square root of xy . We also form the harmonic mean of x and y and call it h1 , i.e. h1 is the reciprocal of the arithmetic mean of the reciprocals of x and y . These may be done sequentially ( in any order ) or simultaneously .   Now we can iterate this operation with g1 taking the place of x and h1 taking the place of y . In this way , two sequences ( gn ) and ( hn ) are defined :   and   Both of these sequences converge to the same number , which we call the geometric -- harmonic mean M ( x , y ) of x and y . The geometric -- harmonic mean is also designated as the harmonic -- geometric mean . ( cf. Wolfram MathWorld below . )   The existence of the limit can be proved by the means of Bolzano -- Weierstrass theorem in a manner almost identical to the proof of existence of arithmetic -- geometric mean .

negative: Bashan Bashan ( -LSB- ˈbeɪʃən -RSB- הַבָּשָׁן , ha-Bashan ; Basan or Basanitis ) is a biblical place first mentioned in , where Og the king of Bashan came out against the Israelites at the time of their entrance into the Promised Land , but was utterly routed . . Og Bashan extended from Gilead in the south to Hermon in the north , and from the Jordan river on the west to Salcah on the east . Along with the half of Gilead it was given to the half-tribe of Manasseh . Golan , one of its cities , became a Levitical city and a city of refuge .   According to the Torah , the Israelites invaded Bashan and conquered it from the Amorites . states :  `` Next we turned and went up along the road toward Bashan , and Og king of Bashan with his whole army marched out to meet us in battle at Edrei . The LORD said to me , `` Do not be afraid of him , for I have handed him over to you with his whole army and his land . Do to him what you did to Sihon king of the Amorites , who reigned in Heshbon . So the LORD our God also gave into our hands Og king of Bashan and all his army . We struck them down , leaving no survivors . At that time we took all his cities . There was not one of the sixty cities that we did not take from them -- the whole region of Argob , Og 's kingdom in Bashan . All these cities were fortified with high walls and with gates and bars , and there were also a great many unwalled villages . We completely destroyed them , as we had done with Sihon king of Heshbon , destroying every city -- men , women and children . But all the livestock and the plunder from their cities we carried off for ourselves . ''   Argob , in Bashan , was one of Solomon 's commissariat districts . The cities of Bashan were taken by Hazael , but were soon after reconquered by Jehoash , who overcame the Syrians in three battles , according to the prophecy of Elisha ( 19 ) . From this time Bashan almost disappears from history , although we read of the wild cattle of its rich pastures , the oaks of its forests , the beauty of its extensive plains , and the rugged majesty of its mountains . Soon after the conquest , the name `` Gilead '' was given to the whole country beyond Jordan . After the Exile , Bashan was divided into four districts :  Gaulonitis , or Jaulan , the most western  Auranitis , the Hauran  Argob or Trachonitis , now the Lejah  Batanaea , now Ard-el-Bathanyeh , on the east of the Lejah , with many deserted towns almost as perfect as when they were inhabited .

negative: Link/cut tree A link/cut tree is a data structure for representing a forest , a set of rooted trees , and offers the following operations :   Add a tree consisting of a single node to the forest .  Given a node in one of the trees , disconnect it ( and its subtree ) from the tree of which it is part .  Attach a node to another node as its child .  Given a node , find the root of the tree to which it belongs . By doing this operation on two distinct nodes , one can check whether they belong to the same tree .   The represented forest may consist of very deep trees , so if we represent the forest as a plain collection of parent pointer trees , it might take us a long time to find the root of a given node . However , if we represent each tree in the forest as a link/cut tree , we can find which tree an element belongs to in O ( log ( n ) ) amortized time . Moreover , we can quickly adjust the collection of link/cut trees to changes in the represented forest . In particular , we can adjust it to merge ( link ) and split ( cut ) in O ( log ( n ) ) amortized time .   Link/cut trees divide each tree in the represented forest into vertex-disjoint paths , where each path is represented by an auxiliary data structure ( often splay trees , though the original paper predates splay trees and thus uses biased binary search trees ) . The nodes in the auxiliary data structure are ordered by their depth in the corresponding represented tree . In one variation , Naive Partitioning , the paths are determined by the most recently accessed paths and nodes , similar to Tango Trees . In Partitioning by Size paths are determined by the heaviest child ( child with the most children ) of the given node . This gives a more complicated structure , but reduces the cost of the operations from amortized O ( log n ) to worst case O ( log n ) . It has uses in solving a variety of network flow problems and to jive data sets .   In the original publication , Sleator and Tarjan referred to link/cut trees as `` dynamic trees '' , or `` dynamic dyno trees '' .

negative: (a,b)-decomposability In graph theory , the ( a , b ) - decomposability of an undirected graph is the existence of a partition of its edges into a + 1 sets , each one of them inducing a forest , except one who induces a graph with maximum degree b . If this graph is also a forest , then we call this a F ( a , b ) - decomposition .   A graph with arboricity a is ( a , 0 ) - decomposable . Every ( a , 0 ) - decomposition or ( a , 1 ) - decomposition is a F ( a , 0 ) - decomposition or a F ( a , 1 ) - decomposition respectively .

negative: Unfolding (functions) In mathematics , an unfolding of a function is a certain family of functions .   Let be a smooth manifold and consider a smooth mapping Let us assume that for given and we have . Let be a smooth - dimensional manifold , and consider the family of mappings ( parameterised by ) given by We say that is a - parameter unfolding of if for all In other words the functions and are the same : the function is contained in , or is unfolded by , the family   Let be given by An example of an unfolding of would be given by   As is the case with unfoldings , and are called variables and and are called parameters -- since they parameterise the unfolding .   In practice we require that the unfoldings have certain nice properties . In notice that is a smooth mapping from to and so belongs to the function space As we vary the parameters of the unfolding we get different elements of the function space . Thus , the unfolding induces a function The space where denotes the group of diffeomorphisms of etc. , acts on The action is given by If lies in the orbit of under this action then there is a diffeomorphic change of coordinates in and which takes to ( and vice versa ) . One nice property that we may like to impose is that   where '' '' denotes `` transverse to '' . This property ensures that as we vary the unfolding parameters we can predict -- by knowing how the orbit foliate -- how the resulting functions will vary .   There is an idea of a versal unfolding . Every versal unfolding has the property that  , but the converse is false . Let be local coordinates on , and let denote the ring of smooth functions . We define the Jacobian ideal of denoted by as follows :   Then a basis for a versal unfolding of is given by quotient   This quotient is known as the local algebra of The dimension of the local algebra is called the Milnor number of . The minimum number of unfolding parameters for a versal unfolding is equal to the Milnor number ; that is not to say that every unfolding with that many parameters will be versal ! Consider the function A calculation shows that   This means that give a basis for a versal unfolding , and that   is a versal unfolding . A versal unfolding with the minimum possible number of unfolding parameters is called a miniversal unfolding .   Sometimes unfoldings are called deformations , versal unfoldings are called versal deformations , etc. .   An important object associated to an unfolding is its bifurcation set . This set lives in the parameter space of the unfolding , and gives all parameter values for which the resulting function has degenerate singularities .

negative: That Means a Lot `` That Means a Lot '' is a song written ( mainly ) by Paul McCartney , but credited to Lennon -- McCartney . It was released in 1965 by P.J. Proby . Proby 's version reached # 24 on the NME chart . Prior to the release by Proby , the Beatles recorded a version that was intended for the Help ! film and soundtrack . The Beatles were dissatisfied with the song and their version was not released until the Anthology 2 CD in 1996 .   Lennon said at the time , `` This song is a ballad which Paul and I wrote for the film but we found we just could n't sing it . In fact , we made a hash of it , so we thought we 'd better give it to someone who could do it well . '' In an interview with Mark Lewisohn in 1988 , McCartney said , `` There were a few songs that we were just not as keen on , or we did n't think they were quite finished . This was one of them . ''

negative: DARPA Robotics Challenge The DARPA Robotics Challenge ( DRC ) was a prize competition funded by the US Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency . Held from 2012 to 2015 , it aimed to develop semi-autonomous ground robots that could do `` complex tasks in dangerous , degraded , human-engineered environments . '' The DRC followed the DARPA Grand Challenge and DARPA Urban Challenge . It began in October 2012 and was to run for about 33 months with three competitions : a Virtual Robotics Challenge ( VRC ) that took place in June 2013 ; and two live hardware challenges , the DRC Trials in December 2013 and the DRC Finals in June 2015 .   Besides spurring development of semi-autonomous robots , the DRC also sought to make robotic software and systems development more accessible beyond the end of the program . To that end , the DRC funded the adaptation of the GAZEBO robot simulator by the Open Source Robotics Foundation ( OSRF ) for DRC purposes and the construction of six Boston Dynamics ATLAS robots that were given to the teams that performed best in the VRC .   Dr. Gill Pratt , Program Manager DARPA Robotics Challenge described DARPA and its goals with the Robotics Challenge : DARPA 's role is to spur innovation . And we do it by focused , short term efforts . We pick things that are not impossible , but also not very low risk . So we take very high risk gambles , and those risks have tremendous payoffs . So if we 're successful it means that these robots are actually going to be able to make a difference . In particular , in disaster scenarios making society more resilient . The lesson of the original challenge -LSB- DARPA Grand Challenge - driverless cars -RSB- is that persistence pays . It 's important if you know the technology is almost there and you can sort of see the light at the end of the tunnel , a little bit of persistence will pay off . What I 'm hoping for in the trials is that some of the teams will score some points . I do n't think that any team is going to score all the points that there are . Maybe no teams will even score half the points that there are . But I think some teams will do moderately well . My expectation is that the robots are going to be slow . What we 're looking for right now is for the teams to just do as well as roughly that one year old child . If we can get there , then we think that we have good reason to believe that some of these teams with continued persistence for another year will actually be able to demonstrate robots that show the utility that these things might have in a real disaster scenario . DARPA is in the innovation business , not in the development business . So , what we do is we wait for technology to be almost ready for something big to happen , and then we add a focused effort to catalyze the something . It does n't mean that we take it all the way into a system that 's deployed or to the marketplace . We rely on the commercial sector to do that . But we provide the impetus , the extra push the technology needs to do that .

negative: Inverse function In mathematics , an inverse function is a function that `` reverses '' another function : if the function applied to an input gives a result of , then applying its inverse function to gives the result , and vice versa . i.e. , if and only if .   As a simple example , consider the real-valued function of a real variable given by . Thinking of this as a step-by-step procedure ( namely , take a number , multiply it by 5 , then subtract 7 from the result ) , to reverse this and get back from some output value , say , we should undo each step in reverse order . In this case that means that we should add 7 to and then divide the result by 5 . In functional notation this inverse function would be given by ,   With we have that and .   Not all functions have inverse functions . In order for a function to have an inverse , it must have the property that for every in there must be one , and only one in so that . This property ensures that a function will exist having the necessary relationship with .

More than 25,000 fires are burning across 15000 km2 . These raging fires have destroyed nearly sixty homes . Bolivia is unable to combat the fires properly as it does not have enough water bombing aircraft .   There was a steep jump in fire hot-spots from 17,000 on Sunday August 15 to approximately 25,000 three days later . Some of the blazes were so strong that firefighters were unable to get close enough to contain them .

The label name was taken from a track on the band 's 2004 B-sides album , B is for B-sides .   Regarding owning the label , band member JR notes that the band : could have gone with Epitaph Records or Fat Wreck Chords , but we figured we had enough experience among the five of us doing almost every facet of what it takes to run a label . Now we control everything we do . It 's kind of scary , kind of creepy and a lot of fun ; I wake up every day at , like , 9 o'clock in the morning and I work on my band . And it 's not just the music side of things ; it 's marketing , online promotion , talking to dudes at radio stations . We work really hard and try to do it as best as we can . We 're our own band , we 're going to go on tour , put out records , and go on tour . That 's it .   The record label was created to re-release selections of Less Than Jake 's back catalog of albums as well as their 2008 studio album , GNV FLA. . The band was still under contract with Warner Bros. . Records for one more album , but the two parties came to a mutual agreement to end the contract early .   Reissues of Goodbye Blue and White , Pezcore , Losers , Kings and Things We Do n't Understand , and the DVD The People 's History of Less Than Jake were released on March 18 , 2008 with new artwork . The CD releases also came with bonus DVDs from the band 's late-2007 string of shows in which they played each of their albums in their entirety . These shows were released on June 22 , 2011 as the 4-disc DVD `` Anthology '' . Also , on March 1 , 2011 , the band rereleased Losing Streak and Hello Rockview , initially for free in CD form on their website .

Winslow explains the unusual title of the book in this passage , as follows :  Ami Ayalon , a peace campaigner and member of the Knesset , was asked if he stood by his oft-quoted remark that the Palestinians and the Israelis hate each other . `` I can not say that I hate Palestinians , but I think , as a nation , as a society , yes , most Israelis hate Palestinians and most Palestinians hate Israelis ... I had a very interesting meeting in London during the intifada . A Palestinian friend approached me -LSB- and said -RSB- : ` Ami , we won . We Palestinians won . ' ... I asked him , ` Are you crazy ? What do you mean `` We won '' ? You are losing so many people ... and we are losing so many people . What is the whole essence of victory ? ' He said , ` Ami you do n't understand us . Victory for us is to see you suffer . This is all we want . Finally , after so many years , we are not the only ones to suffer in the Middle East . ' '' ... It was a double-edged sword . Aylon added , `` In a way it is the same for us . We suffer , we lost many people , and -LSB- at -RSB- a certain point we were looking for revenge . ''

query: But by far the largest greenhouse gas is water vapour, which makes 95 per cent of the total.

positive: Greenhouse gas A greenhouse gas ( abbrev . GHG ) is a gas in an atmosphere that absorbs and emits radiation within the thermal infrared range . This process is the fundamental cause of the greenhouse effect . The primary greenhouse gases in Earth 's atmosphere are water vapor , carbon dioxide , methane , nitrous oxide , and ozone . Without greenhouse gases , the average temperature of Earth 's surface would be about -18 ° C , rather than the present average of 15 ° C . In the Solar System , the atmospheres of Venus , Mars and Titan also contain gases that cause a greenhouse effect .   Human activities since the beginning of the Industrial Revolution ( taken as the year 1750 ) have produced a 40 % increase in the atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide , from 280 ppm in 1750 to 406 ppm in early 2017 . This increase has occurred despite the uptake of a large portion of the emissions by various natural `` sinks '' involved in the carbon cycle . Anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions ( i.e. , emissions produced by human activities ) come from combustion of fossil fuels , principally coal , oil , and natural gas , along with deforestation , soil erosion and animal agriculture .   It has been estimated that if greenhouse gas emissions continue at the present rate , Earth 's surface temperature could exceed historical values as early as 2047 , with potentially harmful effects on ecosystems , biodiversity and the livelihoods of people worldwide . Recent estimates suggest that on the current emissions trajectory the Earth could pass a threshold of 2 ° C global warming , which the United Nations ' IPCC designated as the upper limit to avoid `` dangerous '' global warming , by 2036 .

negative: Solar hot water in Australia Solar hot water is water heated using natural energy from the sun . Solar energy heats up large panels called thermal collectors . The energy is transferred through a fluid ( often water ) to a reservoir tank for storage and subsequent use . It is then used to heat water for commercial or domestic use and also as an energy input for heating and cooling devices and for industrial ` process heat ' applications .   Solar hot water systems are motivated by the desire to reduce energy consumption more specifically , to reduce a significant source of greenhouse gas emissions . In the case of Victoria , for example , converting from electric to solar hot water could save 20 % of the state 's total greenhouse gas emissions .   Despite an excellent solar resource , the penetration of solar water heaters in the Australian domestic market is only about 4 % or 5 % , with new dwellings accounting for most sales .   During the 1950s , Australia 's Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation ( CSIRO ) carried out world leading research into flat plate solar water heaters . A solar water heater manufacturing industry was subsequently established in Australia and a large proportion of the manufactured product was exported . Four of the original companies are still in business and the manufacturing base has now expanded to 24 companies .   Water heating is the largest single source of greenhouse gas emissions from the average Australian home , accounting for around 28 per cent of home energy use ( excluding the family car ) . The Australian government estimates that installing a climate friendly hot water system can save a family $ 300 to $ 700 off electricity bills each year .

negative: Energy in Victoria Energy in Victoria , Australia is generated using a number of fuels or technologies , including coal , natural gas and renewable energy sources - hydro , wind and solar . Brown coal is the primary energy source in the generation of electricity in the State of Victoria , Australia . Brown coal is also one of the largest contributors to Australia 's total domestic greenhouse gas emissions and a source of huge controversy for the country . Australia is one the highest polluters of greenhouse gas per capita in the world . Brown coal is used for the generation of approximately 85 % of Victoria 's household , commercial and industrial electricity consumption .

negative: Climate Change and Emissions Management Amendment Act __ NOTOC __  The Climate Change and Emissions Management Amendment Act of the Canadian province of Alberta was the first law of its type to impose greenhouse gas cuts on large industrial facilities .   Starting from July 1 , 2007 , Alberta facilities that emit more than 100,000 tonnes of greenhouse gases per year will be required to reduce their emissions intensity by 12 percent under the Climate Change and Emissions Management Amendment Act .   Companies have three ways to meet their reductions : they can make operating improvements , buy an Alberta-based credit , or contribute to the Climate Change and Emissions Management Fund .   The regulations apply to about 100 large facilities which emit more than 100,000 tonnes of greenhouse gases a year . Those facilities account for about 70 per cent of Alberta 's industrial greenhouse gas emissions .   The annual cost of compliance is estimated to be $ 177 million - or less than one tenth of one per cent of Alberta 's nominal GDP ( $ 242 billion in 2006 ) .

negative: Fuel taxes in the United States The United States federal excise tax on gasoline is 18.4 cents per gallon and 24.4 cents per gallon for diesel fuel . The federal tax was last raised in 1993 and is not indexed to inflation , which increased by a total of 64.6 percent from 1993 until 2015 . On average , , state and local taxes and fees add 31.04 cents to gasoline and 31.01 cents to diesel , for a total US average fuel tax of 49.44 cents per gallon for gas and 55.41 cents per gallon for diesel .

negative: Vapour-pressure deficit Vapour-pressure deficit , or VPD , is the difference ( deficit ) between the amount of moisture in the air and how much moisture the air can hold when it is saturated . Once air becomes saturated , water will condense out to form clouds , dew or films of water over leaves . It is this last instance that makes VPD important for greenhouse regulation . If a film of water forms on a plant leaf , it becomes far more susceptible to rot . On the other hand , as the VPD increases , the plant needs to draw more water from its roots . In the case of cuttings , the plant may dry out and die . For this reason the ideal range for VPD in a greenhouse is from 0.45 kPa to 1.25 kPa , ideally sitting at around 0.85 kPa . As a general rule , most plants grow well at VPDs of between 0.8 and 0.95 kPa . A series of membership functions for defining optimality degree of VPD at different light condition and growth stages of greenhouse tomato can be found in the work of Shamshiri .   In ecology , it is the difference between the actual water vapour pressure and the saturation water vapour pressure at a particular temperature . Unlike relative humidity , vapour-pressure deficit has a simple nearly straight-line relationship to the rate of evapotranspiration and other measures of evaporation .

negative: Condensing boiler Condensing boilers are water heaters fueled by gas or oil . They achieve high efficiency ( typically greater than 90 % on the higher heating value ) by condensing water vapour in the exhaust gases and so recovering its latent heat of vaporisation , which would otherwise have been wasted . This condensed vapour leaves the system in liquid form , via a drain . In many countries , the use of condensing boilers is compulsory or encouraged with financial incentives .

negative: Water supply and sanitation in Russia This article was written in 2010 with partial updates as of December 2013 .   In Russia , approximately 70 per cent of drinking water comes from surface water and 30 per cent from groundwater . In 2004 , water supply systems had a total capacity of 90 million cubic metres a day . The average residential water use was 248 litres per capita per day . One fourth of the world 's fresh surface and groundwater is located in Russia . The water utilities sector is one of the largest industries in Russia serving the entire Russian population .

negative: 2010 Zambian census The 2010 Zambian census was conducted in Zambia in 2010 under the approval of the Government of Zambia , which recorded demographic data from 13 million people and 3.2 million households . The 2010 Census of Population and Housing was conducted between 16 October and 15 November 2010 , with all parts of the country covered by 30 November 2010 . It was the fifth national population census exercise of Zambia since its independence in 1964 , with the previous censuses conducted in 1969 , 1980 , 1990 and 2000 . A total of 3.2 million questionnaires were used for data collection and the processing started in April 2011 by the Central Statistical Office . Optical Mark Reading ( OMR ) and Intelligent Character Recognition ( ICR ) technology were used for data capture . The census was funded by United Nations Population Fund ( UNFPA ) , the United Kingdom AID ( UKAID-formerly DFID ) , the United States Agency for International Development ( USAID ) and the African Development Bank ( AfDB ) , who contributed close to 60 per cent of the total expenditure and rest contributed by the Ministry of Finance of the Government of Zambia .   As per the census , Zambia had a total population of 13,092,666 including 6,454,647 males ( 49.2 % ) and 6,638,019 females ( 50.8 % ) with a sex-ratio of 102.84 .

The proportion of people living under poverty line was 60.5 per cent , while the extremely poor formed 42.3 per cent of the total population .   A Post Enumeration Survey ( PES ) was carried out to find the common issues to be considered into account for future census enumeration activities . The results of the PES indicated that 92.7 per cent of total Zambian residents were captured in the 2010 census , leaving an under count of 7.3 per cent . The undercount was more in rural areas with an estimated 9.5 per cent of the total population and 3.8 per cent in the urban areas .

negative: 2000 Zambian census The 2000 Zambian census was conducted in Zambia in 2000 by DRS under approval of the Government of Zambia , which recorded demographic data from 13 million people and 4 million households . Planning for the project commenced in 1998 when DRS participated in a trade mission to Zambia . In May 2000 , an initial survey of 10,000 people was then conducted using DRS technology . In October 2000 the census started , with more than 30,000 workers across Zambia completing the 17 million double-sided A4 forms . The census was completed in May 2001 . The scanning was undertaken in collaboration with the Examinations Council of Zambia ( ECZ ) and published by the Central Statistical Office . The census was noted by the Milton Keynes & North Bucks Chamber of Commerce and the DRS received a special commendation for its census work in Africa .   According to the census , Zambia had a total population of 9,885,591 with 4,946,298 ( 50.04 % ) males and 4,939,293 ( 49.46 % ) females and the sex ratio was 999 for every 1,000 males . The total literacy of the population above the age of five stood at 55.3 per cent . Urban population constituted 34.67 per cent and the remaining 65.33 per cent resided in rural areas . The density of population was 13.1 persons per sq. km and the decadal growth of population was 2.50 per cent . There were 22 major languages spoken in Zambia of which 30.1 per cent of the population spoke Bemba , making it the largest spoken language . Out of the seven broad ethnic groups , Bemba was the most prevalent tribal group ( 33.6 % ) , followed by Eastern Province group ( 18.2 % ) . The total labour force was 3,165,151 with a total of 55 per cent of the population being inactive in rural areas and 45 per cent in urban areas . Unemployment increased in the country by 29.9 per cent in 2000 . Agriculture was the major occupation with 71.5 per cent involved in it .   The people affected by HIV or AIDS constituted 15 per cent of the population , amounting to one million , of which 60 per cent estimated were women . Only 49 per cent of the total population had access to safe water , while only 15 per cent had access to proper toilets . As per the mortality indicators in 2000 , the Infant Mortality Rate ( IMR ) stood at 110 deaths per 1,000 children born . The life expectancy at the time of birth increased from 47 in 1990 to 50 in 2000 .

negative: Coober Pedy Solar Power Station The Coober Pedy Solar Power Station was planned to be Australia 's largest off-grid solar power station , located at remote Coober Pedy in South Australia 's far north . The project would cost $ 7.1 million and the Australian Government promised providing $ 3.55 million under its Renewable Remote Power Generation program . When completed at the end of 2009 , the power station was to consist of 26 solar dishes , each one 14 metres high , which would track the arc of the sun . The power plant was to generate about 1860 megawatt hours a year , 13 per cent of Coober Pedy 's total electricity requirements . It would cut diesel fuel consumption by up to 520,000 litres a year , saving 1,500 tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions .   The Government had negotiations with two proponents and failed to convince either of the viability of the project . The project never went ahead .

negative: United States federal register of greenhouse gas emissions The United States federal register of greenhouse gas emissions is established by the United States Department of Energy under the Energy Policy Act 1992 . It is administered by the Energy Information Administration through the Voluntary Reporting of Greenhouse Gases Program .   Separately , the Environmental Protection Agency in 2009 commenced implementing a mandatory Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program , which applies to facilities that emit 25,000 metric tons or more per year .

negative: Hydroelectricity Hydroelectricity is electricity produced from hydropower . In 2015 hydropower generated 16.6 % of the world 's total electricity and 70 % of all renewable electricity , and was expected to increase about 3.1 % each year for the next 25 years .   Hydropower is produced in 150 countries , with the Asia-Pacific region generating 33 percent of global hydropower in 2013 . China is the largest hydroelectricity producer , with 920 TWh of production in 2013 , representing 16.9 percent of domestic electricity use .   The cost of hydroelectricity is relatively low , making it a competitive source of renewable electricity . The hydro station consumes no water , unlike coal or gas plants . The average cost of electricity from a hydro station larger than 10 megawatts is 3 to 5 U.S. cents per kilowatt-hour . With a dam and reservoir it is also a flexible source of electricity since the amount produced by the station can be changed up or down very quickly to adapt to changing energy demands . Once a hydroelectric complex is constructed , the project produces no direct waste , and has a considerably lower output level of greenhouse gases than fossil fuel powered energy plants .

The $ 1.2 billion plant is situated at Brigalow , in the Surat Basin between Dalby and Chinchilla .   The power station uses supercritical steam technology , which produces lower greenhouse gases emissions per energy unit delivered , and air-cooled surface condensers , which reduces water consumption . The plant consumes 90 % less water when compared to conventional power stations through the use of dry cooling technology . The plant runs at 40 per cent efficiency , and requires 42 per cent less fuel input than conventional power stations .

negative: Vapor In physics a vapor ( American ) or vapour ( British ) is a substance in the gas phase at a temperature lower than its critical temperature , which means that the vapor can be condensed to a liquid by increasing the pressure on it without reducing the temperature . A vapor is different from an aerosol . An aerosol is a suspension of tiny particles of liquid , solid , or both within a gas .   For example , water has a critical temperature of 647 K , which is the highest temperature at which liquid water can exist . In the atmosphere at ordinary temperatures , therefore , gaseous water ( known as water vapor ) will condense into a liquid if its partial pressure is increased sufficiently .   A vapor may co-exist with a liquid ( or a solid ) . When this is true , the two phases will be in equilibrium , and the gas-partial pressure will be equal to the equilibrium vapor pressure of the liquid ( or solid ) .

negative: Vapor quality In thermodynamics , vapour quality is the mass fraction in a saturated mixture that is vapour ; i.e. saturated vapour has a `` quality '' of 100 % , and saturated liquid has a `` quality '' of 0 % . Vapour quality is an intensive property which can be used in conjunction with other independent intensive properties to specify the thermodynamic state of the working fluid of a thermodynamic system . It has no meaning for substances which are not saturated mixtures ( i.e. , compressed liquids or superheated fluids ) .   Quality can be calculated by dividing the mass of the vapour by the mass of the total mixture :   where indicates mass .   Another definition used by chemical engineers defines quality ( q ) of a fluid as the fraction that is saturated liquid . By this definition , a saturated liquid has q = 1 . A saturated vapour has q = 0 .   An alternative definition is the ` equilibrium thermodynamic quality ' . It can be used only for single-component mixtures ( e.g. water with steam ) , and can take values < 0 ( for sub-cooled fluids ) and > 1 ( for super-saturated vapours ) :   ; where h is the mixture specific enthalpy , defined as :   .   Subscripts f and g refer to saturated liquid and saturated gas respectively , and fg refers to vaporisation .

It is the largest emirate by area ( 67,340 km2 ) , accounting for approximately 87 percent of the total land area of the federation . Abu Dhabi also has the largest population of the seven emirates . In June 2011 , it was estimated to be 2,120,700 people , of which , 439,100 people ( less than 21 % ) were Emirati citizens , which has risen to 2.3 million in 2012 .   Abu Dhabi is the capital city of the emirate , after which it is named , as well as the capital of the federation .   Abu Dhabi 's Gross Domestic Product ( GDP ) estimates , in 2014 , amounted to ( EUR 0.24 tril . ) AED 960 billion at current prices . Mining and quarrying ( includes crude oil and natural gas ) accounts for the largest contribution to GDP ( 58.5 per cent in 2011 ) . Construction related industries are the next largest contributor ( 10.1 per cent in 2011 ) . GDP grew to AED 911.6 billion in 2012 , or over 100,000 USD per capita .   In recent times , the Emirate of Abu Dhabi has continuously contributed around 60 per cent of the GDP of the United Arab Emirates , while its population constitutes only 34 per cent of the total UAE population according to the 2005 census .   In the early 1970s , two important developments helped the emirate achieve leaps on the path of development . The first was the establishment of the United Arab Emirates in December 1971 with Abu Dhabi as its political and administrative capital . The second was the sharp increase in oil prices following the October 1973 War , which accompanied a change in the relationship between the oil countries and foreign oil companies , leading to a dramatic rise in oil revenues .

In today 's society , we produce CO2 in every day activities such as driving , heating , deforestation and the burning of fossil fuels such as coal , oil and gas . It has been found that carbon dioxide from the burning of coal , natural gas , and oil for electricity and heat is the largest single source of global greenhouse gas emissions . For years , governments and corporations have been attempting to balance out their emissions by participating in carbon-offsetting -- the practice in which they invest in renewable energy to compensate for the global-warming pollution that they produce . Despite these efforts the results are still far off and we continue to see growth in CO2 concentration . Now , a growing number of individuals are trying to make a reduction in the amount of CO2 that is being produced by participating in low carbon dieting . This small adjustment in household CO2 production has the potential to reduce emissions much more quickly than other kinds of changes and it deserves explicit consideration as part of climate policy . It can potentially help avoid `` overshoot '' of greenhouse gas concentration targets ; provide a demonstration effect ; reduce emissions at low cost ; and buy time to develop new technologies , policies , and institutions to reach long-term greenhouse gas emission targets and to develop adaptation strategies .

query: ‘there will not be enough nitrogen available to sustain the high carbon uptake scenarios.’

positive: Climate change and agriculture -RSB-   Climate change and agriculture are interrelated processes , both of which take place on a global scale . Climate change affects agriculture in a number of ways , including through changes in average temperatures , rainfall , and climate extremes ( e.g. , heat waves ) ; changes in pests and diseases ; changes in atmospheric carbon dioxide and ground-level ozone concentrations ; changes in the nutritional quality of some foods ; and changes in sea level .   Climate change is already affecting agriculture , with effects unevenly distributed across the world . Future climate change will likely negatively affect crop production in low latitude countries , while effects in northern latitudes may be positive or negative . Climate change will probably increase the risk of food insecurity for some vulnerable groups , such as the poor .   Agriculture contributes to climate change by ( 1 ) anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases ( GHGs ) , and ( 2 ) by the conversion of non-agricultural land ( e.g. , forests ) into agricultural land . Agriculture , forestry and land-use change contributed around 20 to 25 % to global annual emissions in 2010 .   There are a range of policies that can reduce the risk of negative climate change impacts on agriculture , and to reduce GHG emissions from the agriculture sector .

positive: Miscanthus giganteus Miscanthus × giganteus , giant miscanthus , is a large , perennial grass hybrid of Miscanthus sinensis and Miscanthus sacchariflorus . This full sun plant grows 8-12 ft ( 240 -- 360 cm ) tall each year and is best suited for hardiness Zones 5 - 9 .

positive: Carnivorous plant Carnivorous plants are plants that derive some or most of their nutrients ( but not energy ) from trapping and consuming animals or protozoans , typically insects and other arthropods . Carnivorous plants have adapted to grow in places where the soil is thin or poor in nutrients , especially nitrogen , such as acidic bogs and rock outcroppings . Charles Darwin wrote Insectivorous Plants , the first well-known treatise on carnivorous plants , in 1875 .   True carnivory is thought to have evolved independently nine times in five different orders of flowering plants , and is represented by more than a dozen genera . This classification includes at least 583 species that attract , trap and kill prey , absorbing the resulting available nutrients . Additionally , over 300 protocarnivorous plant species in several genera show some but not all of these characteristics .

negative: Illinois Soil Nitrogen Test The Illinois Soil Nitrogen Test ( `` ISNT '' ) is a method for measuring the amount of Nitrogen in soil that is available for use by plants as a nutrient . The test predicts whether the addition of nitrogen fertilizer to agricultural land will result in increased crop yields .   Nitrogen is essential for plant development . Indeed , for crops that are destined to be food for farm animal or human consumption , incorporation of nitrogen into the crop is an important goal , since this forms the basis for protein in the human diet .   Nitrogen is commonly present in soils in many forms , and there are many ways to measure this nitrogen . None of these are completely satisfactory as a measure of the nitrogen that is available for use by crops . The ISNT is a new ( 2007 ) method for measuring nitrogen available for plant uptake .   ISNT estimates the amount of nitrogen present in the soil as amino sugar nitrogen . With respect to corn and soybeans , the optimal range for plant growth appears to be around 225 to 240 mg/Kg . Some form of nitrogen fertilizer is needed if levels are below this range . On the other hand , if levels are above this range , addition of nitrogen fertilizer will not increase crop yield .   In the corn belt , since about 1975 , the predominant method of estimating the amount of nitrogen needed for corn has been the `` yield-based '' method . A farmer first estimates the yield of corn he intends to produce . He then applies 1.1 to 1.4 lbs of nitrogen per bushel of expected yield . ISNT represents an alternative approach to managing nitrogen application . However , ISNT does not offer a simple answer as to the amount of nitrogen fertilizer that is needed , or as to the optimal form of that fertilizer .   In field trials in Illinois , some fields have been found to be under-fertilized when managed according to the `` yield-based '' method , as judged by the ISNT . In the majority of trials , however , the yield-based method calls for the addition of nitrogen far in excess of the levels needed for optimal crop production . This nitrogen , which is applied by farmers at great cost , does not find its way into the crop , but is lost to the atmosphere or leaches into waterways .   Within the corn belt , stalks and other crop residues are left in the field with the intention of enhancing the amount of organic material in the soil . Excessive nitrogen application , however , appears to promote the rapid decomposition of organic matter in the soil , resulting in release of carbon dioxide . As a result , the amount of organic material in soils managed according to the yield-based method in the corn belt appears to be decreasing in spite of the large amounts of crop residues left in the fields .

negative: Interstitial compound An interstitial compound , or interstitial alloy , is a compound that is formed when an atom with a small enough radius sits in an interstitial `` hole '' in a metal lattice . Examples of small atoms are hydrogen , boron , carbon and nitrogen . The compounds are important industrially and include some transition-metal carbides and nitrides .

negative: Aza- The prefix aza - is used in organic chemistry to form names of organic compounds where a carbon atom is replaced by a nitrogen atom . The related term `` deaza - '' refers to when a nitrogen is removed and , usually , a carbon atom is put in its place . Sometimes a number between hyphens is inserted before it to state which atom the nitrogen atom replaces . It arose by shortening the word azote , which is an obsolete name for nitrogen in the English language and occurs in current French usage ( L'azote ) , meaning `` Nitrogen '' .   This prefix is part of the Hantzsch -- Widman nomenclature .   It 's worthy to record mention of the fact that while the above fig . gives an example or 4-aza steroids , 6-aza steroids have also been developed by GSK ( cf. 5-alpha-reductase_inhibitor ) , although none of these compounds , as yet , are available for sale commercially .

negative: Quinuclidine Quinuclidine is an organic compound and a bicyclic amine and used as a catalyst and a chemical building block . It is a strong base with pKa of the conjugate acid of 11.0 .

All of the carbons in oxazolidines are reduced ( compare to oxazole and oxazoline ) . Some of their derivatives , the oxazolidinediones , are used as anticonvulsants .   Oxazolidines have been around for over 100 years .

negative: Tsuji–Trost reaction The Tsuji -- Trost reaction ( also called the Trost allylic alkylation or allylic alkylation ) is a palladium-catalysed substitution reaction involving a substrate that contains a leaving group in an allylic position . The palladium catalyst first coordinates with the allyl group and then undergoes oxidative addition , forming the π-allyl complex . This allyl complex can then be attacked by a nucleophile , resulting in the substituted product .   This work was first pioneered by Jiro Tsuji in 1965 and , later , adapted by Barry Trost in 1973 with the introduction of phosphine ligands .  The scope of this reaction has been expanded to many different carbon , nitrogen , and oxygen-based nucleophiles , many different leaving groups , many different phosphorus , nitrogen , and sulfur-based ligands , and many different metals ( although palladium is still preferred ) .  The introduction of phosphine ligands led to improved reactivity and numerous asymmetric allylic alkylation strategies . Many of these strategies are driven by the advent of chiral ligands , which are often able to provide high enantioselectivity and high diastereoselectivity under mild conditions . This modification greatly expands the utility of this reaction for many different synthetic applications . The ability to form carbon-carbon , carbon-nitrogen , and carbon-oxygen bonds under these conditions , makes this reaction very appealing to the fields of both medicinal chemistry and natural product synthesis .

negative: Azepine Azepines are unsaturated heterocycles of seven atoms , with a nitrogen replacing a carbon at one position .

negative: Adamanzane Adamanzanes ( abbreviated Adz ) are compounds containing four nitrogen atoms linked by carbons ( analogous to adamantane with nitrogen at the branched position ) . Often coordinated to a central ligand , the nitrogens occupy the vertices of a tetrahedron , with potentially four faces and six edges , with the carbon chains running approximately along the edges . They can have a `` bowl '' or `` cage '' structure , with varying lengths or omission of the carbon chains . In the nomenclature of Springborg et al. ( 1996 ) these can be described according to the number of chains of specified length : thus , for example , -LSB- 14.22 -RSB- adz is 1,3,6,8-tetraazatricyclo -LSB- 4.4.1.13,8 -RSB- - dodecane , a compound which contains four one-carbon chains and two two-carbon chains linking the nitrogens .   36adamanzane has found a special use in the preparation of `` inverse sodium hydride '' , a compound in which Na − and H + ions coexist , due to the ability of the adamanzane to encapsulate the H + and render it kinetically inert to react with the Na − .

negative: Azirine Azirines are three membered heterocyclic unsaturated ( i.e. they contain a double bond ) compounds containing a nitrogen atom and related to the saturated analogue aziridine . They are highly reactive yet have reported in a few natural products such as Dysidazirine . There are two isomers of azirine : 1H-azirines with a carbon-carbon double bond are not stable and rearrange to the tautomeric 2H-azirine , a compound with a carbon-nitrogen double bond . 2H-Azirines can be considered strained imines and are isolable .

negative: Lateral root Lateral roots extend horizontally from the primary root ( radicle ) and serve to anchor the plant securely into the soil . This branching of roots also contributes to water uptake , and facilitates the extraction of nutrients required for the growth and development of the plant .   Many different factors are involved in the formation of lateral roots . Regulation of root formation is tightly controlled by plant hormones such as auxin , and by the precise control of aspects of the cell cycle . Such control can be particularly useful : increased auxin levels , which help to promote lateral root development , occur when young leaf primordia form and are able to synthesise the hormone . This allows coordination of root development with leaf development , enabling a balance between carbon and nitrogen metabolism to be established .

negative: Deoxyribonucleotide A deoxyribonucleotide is the monomer , or single unit , of DNA , or deoxyribonucleic acid . Each deoxyribonucleotide comprises three parts : a nitrogenous base , a deoxyribose sugar , and one phosphate group . The nitrogenous base is always bonded to the 1 ' carbon of the deoxyribose , which is distinguished from ribose by the presence of a proton on the 2 ' carbon rather than an - OH group . The phosphate groups bind to the 5 ' carbon of the sugar .   When deoxyribonucleotides polymerize to form DNA , the phosphate group from one nucleotide will bond to the 3 ' carbon on another nucleotide , forming a phosphodiester bond via dehydration synthesis . New nucleotides are always added to the 3 ' carbon of the last nucleotide , so synthesis always proceeds from 5 ' to 3 ' .

negative: HMX HMX , also called octogen , is a powerful and relatively insensitive nitroamine high explosive , chemically related to RDX . Like RDX , the compound 's name is the subject of much speculation , having been variously listed as High Melting Explosive , Her Majesty 's Explosive , High-velocity Military Explosive , or High-Molecular-weight RDX .   The molecular structure of HMX consists of an eight-membered ring of alternating carbon and nitrogen atoms , with a nitro group attached to each nitrogen atom . Because of its high molecular weight , it is one of the most potent chemical explosives manufactured , although a number of newer ones , including HNIW and ONC , are more powerful .

negative: Zinc uptake regulator The zinc uptake regulator ( Zur ) gene is a bacterial gene that codes for a transcription factor protein involved in zinc homeostasis . The protein is a member of the ferric uptake regulator family and binds zinc with high affinity . It typically functions as a repressor of zinc uptake proteins via binding to characteristic promoter DNA sequences in a dimer-of-dimers arrangement that creates strong cooperativity . Under conditions of zinc deficiency , the protein undergoes a conformational change that prevents DNA binding , thereby lifting the repression and causing zinc uptake genes such as ZinT and the ZnuABC zinc transporter to be expressed .

negative: Combustion analysis Combustion analysis is a method used in both organic chemistry and analytical chemistry to determine the elemental composition ( more precisely empirical formula ) of a pure organic compound by combusting the sample under conditions where the resulting combustion products can be quantitatively analyzed . Once the number of moles of each combustion product has been determined the empirical formula or a partial empirical formula of  the original compound can be calculated .   Applications for combustion analysis involve only the elements of carbon ( C ) , hydrogen ( H ) , nitrogen ( N ) , and sulfur ( S ) as combustion of materials containing them convert these elements to their oxidized form ( CO2 , H2O , NO or NO2 , and SO2 ) under high temperature high oxygen conditions . Notable interests for these elements involve measuring total nitrogen in food or feed to determine protein percentage , measuring sulfur in petroleum products , or measuring total organic carbon ( TOC ) in water .
