11、h the increasing food demand could be mentioned.They found that the most environmentally friendly and cost-effective approach would be for more food producers to adopt the nitrogen-efficient“intensive”farming method,which involves the heavy use of labor and the production of more crops per acre.This

19、 study published today in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences,trees play a big role in keeping our cities cool.According to the study,the right amount of tree cover can lower summer daytime temperatures by as much as 10 degrees Fahrenheit.And the effect is quite noticeable from neigh
