Most Important Elements in the Enviornment

Oceans, seas, and bays contain 95.4% of the world's water supply. Ice caps, glaciers, and permanent snow are composed of 1.74% of the water supply. Ground water is made up of fresh and saline water at 1.7%. Soil moisture is composed of 0.001% water. Ground ice and permafrost consist of 0.022% water. Lakes are also made up fresh and saline water at a percentage of 0.013%. The atmosphere only contains about 0.001% water. While swamp water contains 0.0008%, rivers 0.0002% and biological water, 0.0001% makes up less than that in the atmosphere. Only 1% of all of the earth's water is usable by humans. This means that 99% of the earths' water is unusable, but why?

The difference between agriculture, silviculture, and farming are; agriculture is the cultivation animals, plants and fungi, as well as, other life forms used to sustain life. Silviculture is the practice of controlling the organization of growth, composition, health, and the quality of the many forest to meet the various needs of consumers. The word silviculture is Latin silvi means forest, and culture means growing. Silvology is the study of forest and woods. Farming is considered large agriculture production work.

During World War II the American Aerospace Industry, become one of the most astounding industries to produce aircrafts. In 1939 through1945, 600,000 aircrafts were created and 81 production plants built, including five in Canada. This industry supplied the nation's U. S. Military with its defenses during the war, as well as, providing aircraft for our allies. During President Franklin D. Roosevelt term, he planned to include sales of the aircraft to friendly nations such as, Britain and France. Today, it is the largest industry in the world and a chief rationale for peace among the nations.
It seems that the high-technology industry is such an exciting growing industry to everyone throughout the world and everyone is taking part in it development. It is amazing to see all the new technological products enter the market, however uneconomical in the many production of technological items and many different model doing the almost same thing. It is difficult to suggest to these company's  to be more cost conscious in creating technology, because ultimately they will do and spend how they want. It is one of the largest wasteful industries I have known.
