Indigenous tribes like the Orang Asli in Malaysia have been displaced from their lands due to logging and mining activities, with some arrested when protesting. Logging in Borneo led to total forest destruction in the 1980s when it was the largest tropical wood exporter. The 9,000 strong Kenyah people were forced to leave their homes due to clear felling and now face issues like poverty, depression, and alcoholism. Selective logging continues but reduces biodiversity and uses machinery and roads that damage the environment. Large infrastructure projects like dams have also forced people to resettle while flooding forest areas.

Population pyramidsGP10

Population pyramids are used to show the age and gender distribution of a country's population. They provide insights into a country's birth rate, death rate, and future population changes. Population pyramids can help identify countries that have high birth and death rates, as well as those where the population is stabilizing or aging. They are a useful tool for understanding differences between countries and predicting future needs.

Volcanoes introGP10

Volcanoes come in different types and erupt in various ways. They form where tectonic plates meet in the Earth's crust. The main types are shield volcanoes which erupt fluid lava flows, composite volcanoes which alternate between explosive eruptions and lava flows, and cinder cone volcanoes which erupt ash and cinders. Volcanoes can be active, dormant, or extinct depending on how recently they have erupted.

The document discusses population management policies in the Indian state of Kerala. It notes that Kerala has experienced one of the greatest declines in fertility rates in India, with women having an average of 2 children, similar to rates in the UK. This is attributed to factors like high literacy rates, especially for women (85% literacy for women in Kerala), greater educational and work opportunities for women, later ages of marriage, improved access to healthcare and family planning, and greater legal rights and financial independence for women. The empowerment of women has been a major factor in Kerala's success in lowering its population growth rate.

Less babies please chinaGP10

The document discusses China's one child policy, which was introduced in 1979 to control the country's rapidly growing population. The policy limited urban couples to only one child and led to controversial population control measures. While it helped reduce population growth, it also caused issues like an aging population and gender imbalance from cultural preferences for sons over daughters. In recent years, China has relaxed the policy by allowing two children for rural families and ethnic minorities. However, the long-term implications of the imbalanced population structure due to the one child policy remain to be seen in the future.

The document provides guidance on answering levelled marked questions for exams.

It also notes that questions often ask for both immediate and long-term responses, so students must address both. The document then provides examples of responses for different levels, with higher levels including more detailed examples and balancing immediate and long-term impacts.

The Alps saw over 38 million lodging nights in 2011, with hotels at 41.7% capacity. Tourism brings both economic benefits and pollution as more transportation is needed. The Alps are fold mountains formed over millions of years by the collision of tectonic plates. They are used for agriculture, hydroelectric power, and tourism, which is a major income source. The Alps continue rising today as the African plate pushes into Europe.

The Himalayas are the tallest mountain range in the world, stretching across six countries. They formed as a result of the collision between the Indian and Eurasian tectonic plates. The mountains have beautiful physical features like snowfields, glaciers, and avalanches that feed major rivers. Humans engage in tourism activities like hiking, trekking, and mountaineering in the Himalayas. Transportation is challenging due to the steep slopes and climate, so yaks are used to help with transportation.
