carbon monoxide alarm 7 year image
Bec
Does anyone know of any requirements or complications regarding this type of adoptions. Also does anyone know of some good books to read regarding adoption?
Answer
Always start the home study as soon as you decide to adopt. In a home study, a social worker will come into your home and inspect it. If you have any chemicals (i.e. Lysol, Clorox, detergent, air spray, etc) make sure they're locked up. Lock up all guns and dangerous stuff where the children can't access them. Make sure there is a smoke alarm and a carbon monoxide detector outside each room (preferably Kidde smoke alarms). The social worker will do a criminal/civil background check. They will do a medical check to see if you are healthy enough to take care of a child. They will look at marriage and divorce records but don't worry about that. They will do juvenile checks on the children in the home (if you have any). They will also observe your relationship with your own children to see what kind of a parent you are and what kind of relationship you might have with your future adopted child. Everyone residing must participate in the home study to the best of their ability. If a residing adult objects the adoption proceed, there is going to be an issue. If a residing child objects the adoption, it will most likely be less of an issue but still an issue. Be kind to the social worker. Always offer him/her a drink, a pair of slippers, a place to put their shoes, to hang the coat, etc. When we adopted our now 2 year old daughter from China our then 7, 5 2 year old were expected to be kind to the social worker. We told them firmly that everyone was expected to be kind to the social worker and to if they misbehave, there will be consequences. I included them in the adoption process as much as I can and spent time with each of them individually so they don't feel like I love the baby more then I love them or "where is my place in the family?" Gather the family together and talk to them about the adoption, the plans, etc.

Is global warming a major issue concerning the existence of mankind on earth?
neo1
Coz i read in some book sayin"If global warming rate goes on like this then the whole world will b drowned!"
Answer
Lester E Brown is the director and founder of the global institute of Environment in the United states .he has compiled a report based on all the satalite information available from NASA,and all the information that has come from Universities and American embassies WORLD WIDE ,
his little book Plan B has been trans lated into 50 languages and won the best book award in 2003.
so he knows something and i have added a couple of things that i know
CARBON MONOXIDE
chief causes for global warming are the destruction of the ozone and excessive carbon production ,because we have so many cars and so much land is being deforrested.
the trees absorb carbon emisions ,which is poison to us and they produce oxygen which we need to breathe.
the sea does as well but this is limited to winter periods how ever if the waters also heat up ,the seas will absorb less than ususal and we create more and more
the trees produce the air that we need to breathe.
deforestation must be stopped before desertification goes out of control and consumes the planet.
other reasons are the burning of rubbish especially tires and plastic,and the exessive use of aerosprays which release gasses thes gasses built up ,and because we are a closed system (an enclosed package drifting in space)the trapped gasses heat up and produce the green house effect.
because of the green house effect and the desertification this planet is heating up
Each degree rise in temperature signifies 10% crop loss
DESERTIFICATION
the sahara is growing by 7 kilometres every day.
two major desserts in northern china are growing together making one giant dessert and,causing dust storms so making thousands of people refugeese
the trees evaporate a mist which ,which protects us from the strong rays of the sun .
the planet is drying out at an alarming rate.
in the days of the dinasaurs this planet was under an aquiferus manta ,a mist that covered the entire earth ,and there were no desserts .
Count how many there are today,and all of them are as a result of mans actions.
the sahara used to be forrests
arabia ,irak ,iran used to be fertile lands in biblical times
Ghengas Kahn burned all the forrests here and filled the well with water and so turning vast lands into dessert.
Bad agricultural practises is turning vast teritories into desserts ,because of over grazing and the exessive pumping of carbon aquifiers ,the surface aquifiers already having been depleted.
And the use of fertilisers and heavy machinery that compacts the ground which raises the salt in the soil.
Modern agriculture today is doing the same as ghengas kahn but in much bigger territories.
it is a vicious circle of chain effects
more and more CO2,,and less and less factors that obsorb
and hotter and hotter.
AND AS A RESULT WE HAVE LESS AND LESS DRINKABLE WATER
WATERSHORTAGE
each year 70 million more people are consuming water but this is ,but a small part of what agriculture uses.
so our consumption of water is ever increasing and our drinkable water supply is shrinking because of polution ,and the production of potable water is less all the time because of deforestation.
in Tasmania one can already exchange one litre of water for 2 litres of petrol.
it is predicted that the wars of the future will be for water.
the water we got in most populated places must be treated or purified before it is acceptable for human consumption.
in Portugal and soutern Spain ,as in many places, wine is cheaper than water.Which would explain the many drunk people there
we are living in a bubble economy and when the bubble bursts
food prices will sky rocket,and so will the price of water.
the wars of the future will be for water
RISING SEAS
The northpole is melting ,and we will know it without ice in our life times.
this does not affect the sea level because it is ice that is already in the water.
Green land and the south pole ,which apperantly has a hole in the ozone the size of the usa,are another matter.
this is ice above the sea ,on the land, and melted water will return to the sea .and so duely affect sea levels.the sea has been rising for a long time.
in portugal remains of Roman villas have been discovered 3/4 of a mile in the sea,and in one town the locals say that the sea is eating their town ,in recent years the Dona Philipa golf cours has lost the 16th and 17th hole which have fallen of the cliffs unto the beach.
in California and Florida rising seas have flooded arable land that has been lost
so far only a few millions acres in total globaly ,but this will speed up with the increasing global warming.
And in Antartica arms of ice that even had names because the were so permanent have broken of into the sea.
Global warming is in theory reversable,but it will mean global co operation between all countries ,and taking into account human nature and the world politics ,it is unlikely that this will happen,
At least not untill we are all in the middle of planetary disastres and it becomes a battle for the survival of humanity every where.
SOLUTIONS
if you want to help the planet ,plant a tree every week ,if everyone on the planet did we we would be able to reverse the destructive processes
reduce carbon emisions,and they are already working on that by alternative forms of energy and regulations on carbon producing materials,aerosol cans,burning rubbish,industrial chimneys,powerplants etc.
the capture of carbon and the production of water and assist the aquiferous manta.
the world bank pays large subsidies for reforrestation to capture carbon and the best tree for this is the Pawlonia
Waterharvesting projects ,such as millions of small dams.to redirect over ground waterflows from the rains into the ground to supply subteranian water supplies.
the protection of existing forrests.
stop building more highways,urban planning to include vegetation stop building cities encourage people to return to the land to conduct their business from there which now has become possible thanks to the internet.
education to motivate people to auto sufficiency by building more home food gardens.
education on environmental awareness
Agricultural education and improvements to follow the principals or sustainability and soil management.
more environmental or land ,design to prevent bush fires,such as--fire breaks ,more dams.regulations and control for public behaviour
alternative effeciant public transport to discourage the use of the internal conbustion engine
recicling wastes,limit water use
