Why are tourists a problem in the Burren?
The Burren is home to a large number of plants that are found nowhere else in Ireland. The large number of tourists in the area threaten the survival of some of these rare plants (some get trampled by careless tourists, tour buses increase pollution in the area, etc.) Visitors to the Burren are advised to stick to the pathways, and to be mindful of the local flora.
Can you earn higher than a 4.0 GPA?
It depends on the grading scale. Using a 4 point unweighted scale: No. Each class is of equal value. You can't weight your honors classes to push you over the four point oh mark. Using a 5 point weighted or unweighted scale: Yes. Some schools use this grading scale where instead of 4 being the highest, 5 is highest. Since 5 is the highest, you can definitely get higher than a 4. Using a 4 point weighted scale: Yes. If you have some honors classes, they will be weighted, which means they count for more. It is possible that by weighting your classes, you might have over a 4.0. Usually if it is above, it is not drastically above, but it is by a little bit.
