Finalize for assignment 3


This is my final stage for my assignment 3.. And i have to print it out..

Description:

The tree has always been a cultural symbol. Common icons are the World Tree, for instance Yggdrasil, and the tree of life. The tree is often used to represent nature or the environment itself.

Whether you plant trees around your home and property, in your community, or in our national forests, they help fight global warming. Through the natural process of photosynthesis, trees absorb CO2 and other pollutant particulates, then store the carbon and emit pure oxygen.

The results are in and the reality of global warming is beyond dispute or debate. It’s not just an environmental issue. It affects our public health and national security. It’s an urgent matter of survival for everyone on the planet — the most urgent threat facing humanity today. This is means it’s going to take action from human and tree working together to solve the problem of global warming.

Finalize for assignment 2

1) I had change my TREE, and i use some SPECIAL method to draw it. Don't worry, it is full of leave on the TREE.

Description:

Trees and humankind have always had a symbiotic relationship. Since they evolved, trees have had a great influence on the shaping of the ecology of our planet. By means of photosynthesis the leaves combine the water and salts with carbon dioxide from the air to produce the nutrients which feed the tree. In this process, as well as trees create many chemicals, seeds and fruit of great utility to man. Trees also remove carbon dioxide, the main greenhouse gas, from the air.

However, growing populations and increasing development slowly changed the face of the earth. The forested area of the earth is steadily being depleted. This is leading to the degradation of the environment and the extinction of many species. There is now a real danger that in the not very distant future man will destroy a large proportion of the present population of species on earth, create an uninhabitable environment, and then eventually die out.

Therefore, it is important that we conserve our mother nature so that our younger generation does not have to live in a world without greens.
