How does the overpopulation affect the environment of Tonga?

The population of the world is slowly increasing. As this happens, we need to take great caution in making sure we don't harm the environment. If we don't be careful then it could lead to disastrous effects for us and nature. As cities grow larger and larger the natural land around them is being turned into homes and office buildings. We need to set up more parks inside cities to allow for the large amount of urbanization. These parks help to beautify the city while helping to preserve our environment. As we build these homes and cities we are using more and more lumber and other natural resources for the buildings. We need to limit how much quarrying is allowed in one area and they need to be replanted instead of left bare. If you have ever seen the aftermath of a quarry you would understand how it is a scar to the earth. When we use the trees in a rainforest or any forest we should replant at least the same amount of trees that we took out of it. Birds, squirrels, and other animals use these forests to survive and gather food. Without this natural habitat they will slowly begin to die off. Also alternative power sources should be researched and used more heavily. As we burn more and more fossil fuels we are hurting the atmosphere and slowly losing those valuable resources. Learning how to expand our uses of solar, wind, and hydro-electric energy will greatly help save the environment. It may not seem like nature is being hurt any now. However, as time goes on we will slowly begin to see a decline of animals and may even see some species go extinct and if we don't change the way we live we may soon outgrow nature herself.

A:

Human population affects the earth's environment in a huge way. As the population grows the demands of the population grow. They need land to live on, they need wood for furniture etc. For all this, they cut down a lot of trees. This is very harmful for the earth's environment as it reduces the quantity of oxygen in comparison to that of carbon dioxide. It thus leads to global warming.

What does Seki a Samoa mean?

I'm assuming you've seen this on a t-shirt somewhere as this phrase was made even more popular by being adorned on t-shirts all over the globe. Seki (or seti) is the Samoan word for "set". Set being used in 'slang' terms refers to something being "cool" or "sweet"... So basically it means that Samoa is "set"...Samoa is "cool"...but we all knew that didnt we? :-)

Is the BYU flats tongan test hard?

If you are planning on taking the Tongan Flats Test by BYU and are born and raised in America I suggest you STUDY! LOL.

Here is an outline of the test since its still fresh in my memory:

It is a 150 multiple choice test.

The first 50 questions is very simple. It is an audio recording of a man and a woman speaking in Tongan. They will say very simple phrases such as: "I went to the hospital because I was very sick. The nurse told me to take medicine because I have a high fever." Afterwards they will ask you questions and you have to select the answer that best fits the question.

The last 100 questions tests you on your grammar and reading comprehension.

The grammar section basically has you select the best word choice that fits in the blank. It gives you choices such as: a, e, 'e, o, ne, etc. The grammar section I believe is the hardest.

Reading comprehension uses scripture, folk tales and letters to quiz you on what you understood. The test that I took used 1 Corinthians 13, the legend of how Tongatapu was pulled out of the sea, etc. The first couple of paragraphs asks you questions in english. So it'll have the story in Tongan but the questions were in English. The last couple of stories had the stories in Tongan and the questions in Tongan as well.

What area code do you enter when sending a fax to Tonga?

You dial the same way that you would dial a voice number in Tonga. The country code for Tonga is +676, and the plus sign means "insert your international access prefix here." If you are calling from North America, you would dial

011 = international access prefix from USA, Canada, etc.

676 = country code for Tonga

(number in Tonga)

# = pound sign (tells the phone system you've finished dialing)

Does Tonga and Samoa hate each other?

As a Samoan, I do not hate Tongans. We all have our likes and dislikes in each other, but we don't "hate" each other, and when I say "each other", I mean Samoan to Samoan, Samon to Tongan, Samoan to palagi, Tongan to Tongan, English to English, and so forth. "Hate" is a strong ugly word. We are all children of God, and the less hate in the world, the better chance of us all getting along in a peaceful world. God bless Tongans, Samoans and all other ethnic groups.
