FAQ

Have you ever wondered what amount of trash is generated each day worldwide?

According to the United Nations, the average person produces over 2.5 pounds of daily waste.That adds up to over 25 billion pounds of garbage per year!

Most of this rubbish ends up in landfills or incinerators. But, what happens when those dumpsters fill up? The majority of this rubbish is sent out of the country. It is then shipped out and dumped in other countries. This pollutes the ecosystems. But now we know, thanks to one man. Mike Sexton is his real name. He is the founder of Waste Watchers. He watches over trucks that transport trash across North America. Then he reports back to us about what happens next.

Sexton stated that he finds the job very satisfying. "We've got a lot of fun," he told CNN. "We see big rigs coming through town and we'll follow them. "Sexton started following truck driver almost 20 years back.

He stated that he fell in love with the product.

His favorite story is about a driver that pulled into an abandoned gas station just outside Los Angeles. Sexton remembered, "The man was looking for somewhere to put the load." "He drove down the street and saw this building. He pulled over and went in. "There were two enormous roll-off containers filled with stuff. The man took all the stuff out and filled up his truck with more. "The man looked around the area and decided to unload all of it. There were lots of old tires, rags furniture, mattresses, mattresses, cans, cans, and other items. "It was a complete mess. It had been cleaned up before he arrived. There was not a single piece of trash.

So why did this happen? The answer is that this location was once part of a recycling facility. People who knew about it would drive to this location to recycle their garbage. Sexton said that people would bring their household items to the building and then leave empty containers behind.

This can happen hundreds of times a week. The truck can be stopped running if it is so full of junk that it has to come back hundreds of times per week. The owner finally decides to stop using the truck.

But, this isn't the only problem that our planet is facing.

These tiny plastic particles make up the majority of the particles. Some end up in incinerators or landfills. Some end up in rivers and oceans, while others end up in fish's stomachs.

Experts warn us that we may soon face an international food shortage if things don't change. Experts warn that if we continue to go the same way, we won't make it. However, scientists and most people aren't worried.

What is the most fascinating fact about the human body

We have two eyes, two ears, two nostrils, four limbs, a mouth, a nose, and a penis. Yes, more than 50 parts to our bodies. But one thing is missing. A heart.

A heart is a pump, which circulates blood throughout our bodies. The blood travels through the veins and arteries, transporting oxygen and nutrients to cells. It also removes carbon dioxide.

The heart pumps out approximately 5 liters of blood per minute. This is equivalent to a person drinking 2-3 cups coffee daily.

The heart is constantly pumping blood, 24 hours a week, 365 day a year. While sleeping, your heart beats close to 100 times per minute.

You can tell whether someone is healthy or unhealthy because of the color of their skin. Looking closely at the skin's surface, you can see tiny blood vessels called capillaries. These small vessels carry blood from the large blood vessel in the skin back towards the heart. If blood flow is blocked, skin can turn blue or purple.

People suffering from sickle cell disease have no red blood cells. Their blood becomes sticky and hardens, causing them to become very ill.

You can use a bandage to stop bleeding if your cut is severe. Blood must continue to flow to allow the wounds to heal properly. To do this, doctors insert a needle through the skin into the vein next to the injury. This allows blood flow to the area that has been injured.

Doctors may also insert catheters (catheters), in an artery to treat a blood clot. This helps to keep the patient alive until the blood clot disintegrates naturally.

How does your brain control your body's functions?

To ensure that other organs and muscle functions work together, the brain sends messages. Your brain controls all that happens in your body. It tells your stomach to digest food and your lungs to breathe air; it tells your arms and legs to move.

Your brain is made up billions of nerve cell networks connected in groups known as neurons. Action potentials on Axons are an electrical signal that neurons send to each other. Every neuron has a cell wall around its nucleus. There are channels within the membrane that allow ions such a sodium or potassium to enter and exit the cell. Ion movement is what causes the neurons to fire.

Neurotransmitters, which are chemicals that release neurotransmitters when a neuron fires up, can be found in the space between the neurons and the next one. Neurotransmitters bind with receptors on the second nerve cell, opening ion channel channels to allow ions in and out. In turn, the second neuron also fires.

Neurotransmitter releases occur when a presynaptic neurons receives an input from another neuron. The impulse travels along the synapse connecting the two neurons. The transmitter binds with the receptors of the postsynaptic nerve, activating the firing of the postsynaptic neurons.

They are vital for the communication between nerve cells. They also coordinate activity between different brain parts.

What is the most mysterious location on Earth?

Antarctica is one of the most mysterious places on Earth.

Why is this place so amazing? Because it's unlike any other place in the world.

It is remote, isolated, and extremely difficult to visit. However, there's more to this location than meets the eye.

Some of the most bizarre wildlife species can also be found in this natural wonder.

Let's find out how this mysterious destination became so famous.

Antarctica: The South Pole

Antarctica's name is a mystery. Some say it means "land on ice." Others believe it derives from Greek mythology.

Antarktis in ancient Greece was the name given the island where Zeus' twin brother brothers were born. One of the twins was said to have been born in winter. The term antarctic is derived from this.

Others believe the name was derived from the Greek words tropos, which means turn, and anti, meaning against. This would be land turned away form the sun.

Whatever the reason Antarctica holds a special fascination, people have always loved it.

It is the driest, windiest of all continents. Because it is so cold, there aren't any trees, plants or animals.

Yet, life is abundant in this frozen wilderness.

It is home to approximately 90 percent of all life on Earth. About 50% of the world's plant and animal species can be found here.

What is the secret to Antarctica's unique environment? Here, water is frozen into ice rather than vaporizing into the air.

This causes large ice masses to rise above the ground.

These floating glaciers make up 80%. They are growing in size every year.

The Antarctic Ice Sheet has grown 60 feet in the past 60 years.

If the melting continues, the sea level will rise by up to 200 feet. That could cause massive flooding around the globe.

This does not mean that everyone is wrong. Some scientists suggest that global warming could actually be good for us. According to scientists, global warming could be good for us because the melting of the ice sheets will accelerate, which can lead to floods that release toxic chemicals into our soil and bodies.

Others warn that this theory sounds like something out of a science-fiction movie.
