Life On Land

Callie willis-warthan | lme 448, what are global goals, life on land, understanding the world goal.

• Forests and mountains are the main source of food
• Provide air and clean water
• Sustainably managing terrestrial ecosystems is a huge part of protecting the environment

Why is this a world goal?

- Constitute the habitat of millions of animal and vegetable species- 1,600,000,000 people depend on forests for their subsistence - Forests are threatened by our activity

How is life on land?

Degradation, desertification, and deforestation.

• Degradation is the deterioration of soils that may have been used for the future
• One of the world’s most pressing environmental problems is degradation. It is said that it will worsen if quick action is not taken (2022, GEF)
• 3.2 billion people are affected by land degradation
• 25% of land has been degraded

degradation

• Land degradation is where fertile land becomes a desert
• The climate and human activities cause land desertification
• The risk is widespread and hits more than 100 countries

Desertification

• The removal of forest or trees from land that will be used for non-land purposes
• Examples of this could be shopping malls, parking lots, grocery stores, etc.
• Landscapes have been greatly altered due to deforestation

Deforestation

• A problem since the beginning of time
• Only 10% of land was lost due to the small population on Earth
• Today, we have lost 6 million hectacres
• That rounds up to 14,826,323 acres
• We have lost 1/3 of our forests and numbers are still decreasing

Global problem: Deforestation

• Trophy hunting can affect wildlife as well as human life
• Hunters risk it all for "big game"

National Problem: America's Poaching and Importation Problem

• Constant construction and tearing buildings down on Western Kentucky University's campus
• Potential wildlife habitats lost
• Spending more time fixing up campus rather than worrying about wildlife on campus

local connection: Constant Construction In kentucky

Do you know of the recent issues regarding wildlife, results from survey, this is a global problem, be the change, what can you do, steps to change the world, the 3 r's: reduce, reuse, recycle, "learning about life on land will forever have an impact on my thoughts and action" - callie willis-warthan.

International Day for Biological Diversity - 22 May 2024

The Theme of Biodiversity Day 2024: "Be part of the Plan"

May 13, 2024

Biodiversity Day 2024

When: 22 May 2024

Theme: Be part of the Plan

Official website: https://www.cbd.int/biodiversity-day

Lead: The Convention on Biological Diversity

“Be part of the Plan”, the theme of International Day for Biological Diversity (IDB) 2024, is a call to action for all stakeholders to halt and reverse the loss of biodiversity by supporting the implementation of the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework, also referred to as the Biodiversity Plan . 

The Biodiversity Plan offers opportunities for cooperation and partnerships among diverse actors. 

Governments, indigenous peoples and local communities, non-governmental organizations, lawmakers, businesses, and individuals are encouraged to highlight the ways in which they are supporting the implementation of the Biodiversity Plan. 

We are all #PartofThePlan.

IDB 2024 is expected to increase the visibility momentum in the lead-up to the sixteenth meeting of the Conference of the Parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity (COP 16) , to be held in Colombia from 21 October to 1 November 2024. 

What is Biodiversity?

Biodiversity describes the wide range of life forms on Earth, spanning from genes to entire ecosystems. It encompasses the processes that maintain life, including evolution, ecology, and cultural practices. Biodiversity encompasses not only rare, threatened, or endangered species but all living beings, from well-known organisms like humans to lesser-known ones such as microbes, fungi, and invertebrates. 

Why is Biodiversity Important?  

Biodiversity plays a vital role in multiple aspects of our lives. Its importance lies in the numerous benefits humans derive from it, including essential needs like food, fuel, shelter, and medicine. Additionally, ecosystems offer critical services like pollination, seed dispersal, climate regulation, water purification, nutrient cycling, and pest control. Moreover, biodiversity holds value beyond known benefits, potentially offering new medicines and other services yet to be discovered.

3 warnings and an advisory in effect for 12 regions in the area

Pop-off politics: houston police department seeks approval for real time crime center.

Jason Nguyen , KPRC 2 Senior Investigates Producer

HOUSTON – Pop-Off Politics is the only segment in Houston where we look through all the agenda items and tell you what they are and how much they cost.

City Council Members and the Mayor are tasked with allocating millions of dollars each week they are in session aimed to better Houstonian’s lives.

This week, KPRC 2 Senior Investigates Producer Jason Nguyen joined Zach Lashway while Mario Diaz was on assignment.

Real-Time Crime Center at HPD

The first agenda item explored this week deals with a Real Time Crime Center at the Houston Police Department (HPD). Back in October , we first told you about the Versaterm Public Safety System, which is the new records-keeping system HPD is trying to get operational by March of 2025.

• HPD asking for new records keeping system and tasers

The system will allow them to streamline crime trend analysis and report tracking.

Now, HPD wants a Real Time Crime Center through Motorola Solutions. There is not much information under Agenda Item #38 other than indicating it’s a placeholder.

HPD is looking for a council vote on Wednesday, assuming the item doesn’t get pulled before then.

• Third time a charm?

Houston Forensic Science Center

The next agenda item deals with the Houston Forensic Science Center (HFSC).

KPRC 2 Investigates first told you about the technician who was terminated because of questions dealing with the quality of her work that affected more than 390 criminal cases. That came at a time when HFSC was dealing with several backlogs.

• Murder of Migos rapper Takeoff at Houston bowling alley among nearly 400 cases flagged for forensic failures

One of those backlogs deals with toxicology reports. This mostly deals with blood draws for those driving under the influence.

In Agenda Item #36, HFSC is asking the city council to maximize its American Rescue Plan Act or ARPA funding.

We’re told the center wants to use more than $133,000 to outsource the toxicology tests to NMS Labs. That money would go towards testing 100-150 toxicology tests.

While that doesn’t seem like a lot, in the grand scheme of things, it lightens the workload so that the lab techs who are working on those suspended cases can get them completed as soon as possible along with the rest of the backlog.

Have Questions?

Stay informed with Pop-Off Politics, where transparency and accountability in local government come first.

If you have questions on how the City of Houston is spending your hard-earned tax dollars, email Mario Diaz at [email protected] , or email the investigates team at [email protected] .

Mature Fern Sorus under frond Sporangium with spore diploid haploid Egg and Sperm unite producing Sporophyte Young sporophyte Spore Germinates Prothallus Archegonia & antheridium on Prothallus Hickox: Baker High School

Non-seed Vascular Plants 22.2 sporangia • Sporangia (spores) • Frond • Under frond - Sorus Hickox: Baker High School

Chapter 22.1 Reinforcement and Study Guide page 97 • 9. Nonvascular plants are not as common or as widespread as vascular plants (B) the life functions of nonvascular plants require a close association with water. • 10. The life cycle of nonvascular plants includes an alternation of generation between a (c) diploid sporophyte and a haploid gametophyte) • Fossil and genetic evidence suggests that the first land plants were (C) liverworts. • Chapter 22.2 Reinforcement and Study Guide page 98 • Unlike vascular plants, the spore-producing (1) sporophyte is the dominant generation in vascular plants. A major advance in vascular plants was the adaptation of (2) leaves to form structures that protect the developing (3) reproductive cells or zygote. Hickox: Baker High School

What is a plant? (21.1 Adapting to Life on Land) • (Alternation of Generations) (6 – 18) • The lives of all plants consist of two alternating stages, or (6) generations. The gametophyte generation of a plant is responsible for development of (7) gametes. All cells of the gametophyte, including the gametes are haploid. The (9) sporophyte generation is responsible for the production of spores. All cells of the sporophyte are (10) diploid . The spores are produced by the sporophyte plant by (11) meiosis and are, therefore, haploid. • The lives of seed plants include two generations that alternate. • The generation of a plant responsible for producing gametes is the gametophyte generation. • Gametophyte spores are haploid and sporophyte tissue cells are diploid. Hickox: Baker High School

What is a plant? (21.1 Adapting to Life on Land) • Non-seed plants release spores into the environment that grow into gametophytes. • What is the difference between vascular and nonvascular plants? Vascular plants have long, tube-like cells that form tissues that transport food, water, and other materials. Nonvascular plants have thin tissues that allow nutrients and water to travel from one cell to another by osmosis and diffusion. • Some land plants produce seeds. What is their function? How do they differ from spores? Seeds protect the embryos and spores protect haploid cells and keep them from drying out. Seeds have a diploid embryo and a food supply that are covered with a protective coat. Spores have a haploid cell with a hard protective covering. Hickox: Baker High School

What is a plant? (21.1 Adapting to Life on Land) 18. How do algae and land plants take in substances? Algae live in water and absorb dissolved substances directly into their cells. Most land plants absorb dissolved substances from the soil. Hickox: Baker High School

Survey of the Plant Kingdom 21.2 (238) Botanists 37) Phylogeny of Plants (evolutionary history) • Scientists who study plants are ________ 38) Non-seed Plants: use sporesto reproduce. 39) Hepaticophytes: non-seed plants called liverworts; nonvascular, use osmosis and diffusion, to absorb water & nutrients 40) May be ancestors to all plants.
