I don't really see how this is pertinent to this year's rules but
1. more job opportunities, push factors from the rural areas 2. in WWII to increase food production, the US government promoted Victory Gardens. I would do something similar. Essentially have roof-top gardens.

I meant to say Describe two environmental causes and effects of urban sprawl.My mistake, sorry! :oops: Those answers are good though, based on the questions.

Haha no worries. What major development has indirectly increased the deforestation rates in the Amazonian Rainforest and which 10 billion dollar proposal will make those rates even higher?

Yay
Name 3 goals set by the COP21 Paris climate talks last year.
Yes, I know it's not really important to this year's rules, but ya never know what's going to be on a test, so......
Edit: Ya know what? I'm just going to delete everything that used to be in this post and ask a new question to get this going again. varunscs11 would you please tell us the correct question to your answer, since I had about the stupidest answer ever, and I couldn't find the answer online.

What is a biome? Also, list a few biomes and where they are located.

A biome is a large community of plants and animals occupying a major habitat. Some examples are the Amazon rainforest in Brazil and the Sahara desert in North Africa.

Yup! For the second part, I was actually asking for the types of biomes (i.e. tropical rainforest, desert), but your answer looks right! Your turn!
