Answer to Question 1

Answer: The clearing of forests for agricultural use eliminates a natural mechanism for the removal of CO2 from our atmosphere. Cattle produce methane in both their breath and their waste.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: Reuse means switching from single-use items to versions that last. For instance, canvas shopping bags, cloth napkins, porcelain travel mugs, stainless steel water bottles, and rechargeable batteries are all multi-use items.
