Forests are life forms that spread throughout the world. We can find a nice forest in tropical and cold climates, in the lowlands and in the mountains, on a small island and the continent.

The forest is a collection of herbs and plants, especially trees or other woody plants, which occupy large areas.

The tree itself is high enough plant life to years. So, is different vegetables or grains that live one season only. The tree also is noticeably different because a principal has a long upright woody and form canopy (crown leaves) is clear. 

A collection of trees is considered forest if able to create a climate and environmental conditions of local specialties, which is different than in the outer regions. If we were in a tropical rain forest, it was like coming into a warm, moist steam, which is different than the surrounding farming areas. The landscape was different. This means that all the other plants and animals (up to the smallest detail), and various other non-living elements, including the parts that are an integral constituent of the forest.

Forest as an ecosystem not only save natural resources such as timber, but still a lot of potential non-timber that can be taken advantage of by society through the cultivation of agricultural crops on forest land. As a function of forest ecosystems play an important role in many aspects such as the provider of water, producing oxygen, where millions live flora and fauna, and the role of balancing the environment and prevent global warming. As a function of the water provider for the life of the forest is one of the most important, this is because the forest is growing millions of plants.

Warning global ozone pollution

Control measures that have now failed to protect human health and the environment from the increasing levels of ozone-earth's surface, according to a report by the Royal Society. This report states that international action is needed to curb pollutants and protect people and crops.
Although ozone (O3) at the top of the atmosphere protects the Earth from harmful ultraviolet rays, ozone close to the ground is an increasingly serious problem because ozone is an oxidant potential and contribute to photochemical smog. During the summer months, ozone levels could be lower, exacerbating conditions such as asthma in susceptible people. It is also considered to disrupt photosynthesis and has been shown inhibit the growth of some crops.
More than 1500 deaths in the UK during 2003 were associated with ozone - a number expected to rise more than 50 percent in 20 years to come. Children, asthmatics, and the elderly are particularly vulnerable to these pollutants, which can irritate the nasal passages and lungs. In addition, the reduction of crops such as wheat, rice and soybeans caused losses estimated at 6.7 billion euros in the EU alone during 2000.
"This is truly a global problem, because ozone is generated in one country can move to other countries through the climate system and jet stream (jet streams)," said David Fowler, chairman of the working group on surface ozone-earth Royal Society, "A strategy required to perform global reductions needed to protect human health and the environment. "
Ozone is not emitted directly from any source, but rather is formed by photochemical reactions of volatile organic compounds and nitrogen oxides released from burning fossil fuels - mainly from vehicle exhaust fumes. Although some countries have had much success in reducing ozone levels through the use of catalytic converters on vehicles path, but global emissions of ozone raw materials continue to rise and the effect is expected to get worse.

"Polluted air can move up to thousands of miles away," said Mike Pilling, an expert in the field of atmospheric chemistry at the University of Leeds. "So here in the UK for example, if the wind comes from the east so we get a lot of ozone import from Europe".

Earth-surface ozone increases also strongly associated with global warming, Pilling warned, because ozone is a powerful greenhouse gas. In addition, changing climate means that ozone concentrations will increase in areas densely populated in the world, suggesting that these pollutants can threaten agriculture in developing countries.

Europe, the United States, and countries such as China had previously been committed to the control of ozone are very meaningful, "said Pilling." But it is necessary that the rules relating to the problem is in force around the world to address this issue. "

Acquired Immunodeficiency Syindrome or Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS abbreviated) is a collection of symptoms and infections (or: syndrome) is caused by damage to the human immune system caused by HIV infection, or infection of other viruses that attack similar to other species (SIV, FIV, etc.).

The virus called Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV for short), a virus that weakens the immunity of the human body. People who are exposed to the virus will become vulnerable to opportunistic infections or tumors susceptible. Although there has been handling can slow the spread of the virus, but the disease is not completely curable.

HIV and the virus-like viruses are generally transmitted by direct contact between the skin layers (mucous membrane) or the bloodstream with a bodily fluid containing HIV, such as blood, semen, vaginal fluids, preseminal fluid, and breast milk. Transmission can occur through sexual intercourse (vaginal, anal, or oral), blood transfusion, contaminated hypodermic needles, between mother and baby during pregnancy, childbirth, or breastfeeding, or other forms of contact with the body fluids.

AIDS is the most severe form is caused by a retrovirus HIV.AIDS infection that usually affects the vital organs of the human immune system such as CD4 + T cells (a type of T cells), microbial, and dendritic cells. HIV include CD4 + T cells directly and indirectly. Whereas CD4 + T cells necessary for the immune system to function properly.

If HIV has killed CD4 + T cells to shrink in number to less than 200 per microliter of blood, the immunity at the cellular level will be lost, and the result is a condition called AIDS. Acute HIV infection will progress to clinically latent infection, and symptoms of early HIV infection and ultimately AIDS, which is identified by examining the number of CD4 + T cells in the blood and the presence of certain infections.

Without antiretroviral therapy, median duration of progression of HIV infection to AIDS is nine to ten years, and the average survival time after an AIDS only about 9.2 months. However, the rate of progression of the disease in each person varies widely, from two weeks to 20 years.

Many factors that influence it, such is the power of the body to defend against HIV (such as immune function) from an infected person. Parents generally have a weaker immune system than younger people, and thus more at risk of rapid disease progression.
