And so our message is, 'Don't buy it, and don't take that chance'." A Wildlife Fund report states that the United States seized 8,300 illegal ivory items between 1995 and 2002. Each week there are about 1,000 ivory auctions; the report said As for tigers, their parts are used in traditional Chinese medicine. Tiger bones are used as a pain reliever in traditional medicine.

It is powered by thermonuclear reactions near its center that change hydrogen into helium. The sun has existed in its present state for about 4 billion, 600 million years and is thousands of time greater than the earth By studying other stars, astronomers can predict what the rest of the sun's life will be like. About 5 billion years from now, the core of the sun will become smaller and hotter. The surface temperature will fall. The higher temperature of the centre will increase the rate of thermonuclear reactions. The outer regions of the sun will expand approximately 35 million miles, about the distance to Mercury. which is the closest planet to the sun. The sun will then be a red giant star. Temperatures on the earth will become too hot for life to exist Once the sun has used up its thermonuclear energy as a red giant, it will begin to shrink. After it becomes smaller to the size of the earth, it will become a white dwarf star. The sun may throw off huge amounts of gases in violent eruption called nova explosions as it changes from a red giant to a white dwarf After billions of years as a white dwarf, the sun will have used up all its fi and will have lost its heat 1.

When a resource is used, it takes some times to replace it. If the resource can be replaced quickly and easily, it is called renewable. If it cannot be replaced quickly and easily, it is nonrenewable. All fossil fuels are nonrenewable resources. Solar energy, air, and water are usually called renewable because there is an unlimited supply However, this definition may change if people are not careful with these resources. The amount of solar energy that reaches the earth depends on the atmosphere. If the atmosphere is polluted, the solar energy that reaches the earth may be dangerous. If humans continue to pollute the air, it will not contain the correct amounts of these gases Many resources are limited and non renewable, and many are in danger of pollution.
