Eco News #15 – deforestation reduces the rain in a dangerous scale
September 9th, 2012As it was confirmed by scientists, deforestation reduces the amount of rain and can be a cause of drought – as says the research ran by team from the University of Leeds and the NERC Centre for Ecology & Hydrology.
According to their observations, deforestation in a massive scale such as in Amazon region or Congo may reduce the amount of rain in such a degree, that it could lead to catastrophic consequences. Provided that the deforestation scale will be the same until 2050, there will be only one-fifth (21% to be exact) of rain during dry seasons. It may have harmful effect on places inhabited by humans, in areas that strongly depend on the rainfall. (more…)
Eco Tips: Eco cleaners #5 – clean wooden floors with tea
September 3rd, 2012Dishes clean, as well as tiles on the floor. 🙂 But what if we have wooden floor? A great way to clean wood is tea – to start with, boil a pot of water. Then, add 5 or 6 tea bags into it. Leave it for about 10 minutes, and, after that, pour that tea into your mop bucket – you can add some cold water, if the tea is too hot. Sweep your floor with mop – it should wash off any stains and even make them a little more shiny.
But watch out – it may be slippery. 😉

Eco News #14 – Tropical species adapting to Global Warming
August 19th, 2012Recently we spoke of fish adapting to changing climate, as well as coral reefs. Now about tropical species.
Those species, that used to live in warm, humid areas, like lizards or insects are ectotherms – animals that require heat from environment to prosper correctly. That makes them dependent of temperature, which means – changing temperature would cause harm to them.
