Answer to Question 1

The first step is to halt exploitation immediately. Other steps include planting trees of an appropriate

dunes.



Answer to Question 2

A disturbing finding has been the identification of pesticides, herbicides, viruses, bacteria, and fungi in
windblown dust. African dust in the Caribbean, for example, contains microbes that are about 25
