Australia

Oh, dude, that's an easy one. The US state closest to Australia is Hawaii. I mean, like, they're both in the Pacific Ocean, so it's not like you can just swim from Hawaii to Australia, but in terms of, like, actual distance, Hawaii is the closest. So, yeah, there you go.

Well, friend, Australia is a vast and diverse land with a wide range of biomes. However, you won't find Arctic tundra or taiga forests in Australia, as these biomes are typically found in colder regions closer to the North and South Poles. Remember, every place on this beautiful planet has its own unique ecosystems to be appreciated and cherished.

The leading producer of sugar in Australia-Oceania is Australia. Australia is one of the top sugar-producing countries in the region, with Queensland being the primary sugar-producing state. The country's sugar industry is a significant contributor to its economy, with a focus on producing raw and refined sugar for domestic consumption and export.

The coordinates 22 south latitude and 152 east longitude in Australia correspond to the Coral Sea, which is a body of water rather than a specific channel. The specific channel in that vicinity is likely the Coral Sea Channel, which is a deep-water passage between Australia and New Caledonia. It is an important maritime route for ships traveling between the Pacific Ocean and the Tasman Sea.

They believe soap is evil so they never touch it. Also because they eat so much dugong blubber. I worked in the abo communities for many years. On the extremely rare occasions they turned up for work which would be from about 11am to midday when they would knock off it almost made me physically sick if they came too close to me. Their body odour was so pungent, so foul and so thick you could almost taste it. They are a truly disgusting people who contribute nothing to society. Soap dodgers, one and all.

It most likely won't be helped, but it will be destroyed by a special type of starfish if we can't kill them first. Do a Google� Images� search for "Thorn Of Crowns Starfish, Great Barrier Reef" Or do a normal Google� search, if you don't get any images. Try separating them. The Starfish is only able to be killed by a snail, one that has a harpoon filled with poison at the tip. This doesn't really answer your question, but it tells you how to find the answers. Good luck, my friend. In many countries they are sinking old ships so plankton will grow on it and try to bring back the natural order of the oceans. Depending on what the trouble is you are worried about. As for the star fish problem we can't really fix that too easily. We would have to start hunting starfish, which for some reason environmentalists don't like.

If your concern is that the reef will die as the water level rises then you shouldn't fear. Coral grow where they can survive. Meaning they won't be growing downwards into the colder water. They naturally grow upwards towards the heat of the sunlight. This means as the ocean levels rise the reef will grow upwards too. Thus our beloved reef that has wrecked many a ship is saved, by itself.

= Great Barrier Reef = The Great Barrier Reef includes over 2,900 reefs, around 940 islands and cays, and stretches 2,300 kms along the Queensland coastline. The Great Barrier Reef Marine Park is 345,000 km2, that's larger than the entire area of the UK and Ireland combined! Bullray swimming in the Great Barrier Reef

© WWF-Canon/Jürgen FREUND The reef is immensely diverse with 1,500 species of fish, 359 types of hard coral, one third of the world's soft corals, 175 bird species, six of the world's seven species of threatened marine turtle and more than 30 species of marine mammals including vulnerable dugongs. Add to that stunning marine life are 5,000 to 8,000 molluscs and thousands of different sponges, worms, crustaceans, 800 species of echinoderms (starfish, sea urchins) and 215 bird species, of which 29 are seabirds. The Great Barrier Reef is listed under all four natural World Heritage criteria for its outstanding universal value. Protecting the reef has benefits beyond conservation - it is also an investment that helps provide security for coastal communities and provides significant benefits to the Australian economy. Reef industries, which are reliant on a healthy environment in which to operate, contributed approximately $5.8 billion to the Australian economy in 2004 and employed about 63,000 people. Historically, the Reef has been regarded as a well-protected, pristine wonderland - a place of delicate corals, abundant fish life and a haven for other marine life. As scientists came to understand more about the reef's complexities, a different picture emerged - overfishing, land-based pollution and coral bleaching exacerbated by increased sea temperatures due to global warming are all impacting upon its natural wealth. Immediate action was required to protect the reef because only 4.6% of the reef was fully protected. As a result of public campaigning and pressure from WWF, the Australian Government committed to a plan to protect 33% of the reef. The Great Barrier Reef Marine Park (GBRMP) zoning plan was implemented in 2004. Its most significant feature is a network of marine sanctuaries that stretch from the Park's northernmost to southern boundaries. This is the world's largest network of marine sanctuaries and covers over a third of the Marine Park - protecting over 11 million hectares. Scientists have identified 70 different distinct biological regions in the GBRMP, representing the entire range of its plants and animals. A minimum percentage of each biological region is protected from fishing in order to maintain the health and resilience of the ecosystem and to protect the full range of biodiversity in the marine park. Crown-of-thorns starfish - one of the threats to the Great Barrier Reef

© WWF-Canon/Jürgen FREUND The amount of sediment flowing from the land into the marine park from its catchment area has quadrupled over the past 150 years due largely to grazing and cropping expansion in the catchment and loss of native vegetation and wetlands. The reef has experienced two mass coral bleaching events - in 1998 and 2002. Bleaching was more severe in 2002, with aerial surveys finding that almost 60% of reefs were bleached to some degree. Not only is the reef subject to high levels of fishing pressure, other fishing practices such as seafloor trawling for prawns are still permitted in over half of the marine park, resulting in untargeted fish capture (by-catch) and destruction of the seafloor. Maintaining a well funded, enforced and monitored network of marine sanctuaries throughout the GBRMP is essential to protect representative areas, as well as areas that are of special or unique biological value. Healthy levels of fishing effort in the marine park are needed to safeguard the Reef's biodiversity. The joint Australian and Queensland governments' Reef Water Quality Protection Plan confirms that effective action must be taken now to reduce land-based sources of sediment, nutrient and pesticide pollution further damaging in-shore reefs. The future impacts of global warming must be included in government plans regarding the Reef at a local level, and action must be taken at a national level to reduce CO2 emissions.

Oh, my friend, I don't have that information right now. But remember, things will unfold in their own time. Let's focus on creating happy little moments and spreading positivity instead. Take a deep breath, and let's paint some happy little trees together.

Australia has many cultures within it and most of them are fairly well isolated from each other as the result of racism and xenophobia. so tends to be a bit of a cultural wasteland depending upon the united states for its cultural moores and attitudes.

The above answer does not accurately address the question or consider what a cultural hearth is. A cultural hearth is a locality from which which major cultural influences were or are generated. Historically, major cultural hearths are places such as Mesopotamia and West Africa. For this reason, Australia could be considered a minor cultural hearth because the aboriginal culture is completely unique and not replicated anywhere else in the world.

The difference is that, normally, many ideas and innovations that begin in cultural hearths spread to other parts of the world. In this regard, Australia is a cultural hearth, as some unique Australian inventions and innovations have been implemented around the world. On the other hand, they do not have a uniquely recognisable "Australian" tag to them, and are not always associated with what is Australian.

Yes, wombats can benefit from other species in their ecosystem. For instance, their burrowing activities help aerate the soil and create habitats for various insects and small animals. Additionally, wombat droppings provide nutrients that support plant growth, which in turn benefits herbivores that rely on those plants. This interconnectedness illustrates the role wombats play in maintaining ecological balance.

"Down Under" is a song written by Australian musician Colin Hay, who is the lead vocalist of the band Men at Work. The song was released in 1981 as part of their debut album, "Business as Usual." It became a major hit and is often associated with Australian culture.

Well, honey, if a ship sailed from Sydney to London by the shortest route, it would cross the Pacific Ocean, Panama Canal, Caribbean Sea, Atlantic Ocean, and finally the English Channel. Just make sure they pack some snacks for the journey because that's gonna be a long haul, darling.
