Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) *Antarctica is the last and largest unspoiled wilderness area on Earth. It is a reminder of what the planet was like before the influence of man, its unspoiled beauty has inspired people since it was first glimpsed.

*Antarctica belongs to no-one and everyone, there were never any native people's living there and because environmental conditions are so difficult it was never settled in the usual sense and so isn't a part of any one country.

*Antarctica is a continent for science, as it is so unspoiled it acts as a laboratory for the rest of the world where changes can be measured in isolation from the effects of man

2) Widen roads.

Narrow roads.

Build a light rail network.

3) plant more trees

4) Wind, water, and ice erode and shape the land. Volcanic activity and earthquakes alter the landscape in a dramatic and often violent manner.

5)The main modern causes of extinction are the loss and degradation of habitat (mainly deforestation), over exploitation (hunting, overfishing), invasive species, climate change, and nitrogen pollution.
