Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

The most pressing environmental problems in the region are deforestation, as well as fire, smoke, and air pollution. The most serious problem is deforestation, where as much as 50 of forests have been cut in Thailand. The major effort to alleviate this problem has been to allow forested areas to regrow. Drought and logging practices lead to wildfires which created severe air pollution in the late 1990s. Some of the incidences that occurred due to the air pollution were a commercial airliner crash and respiratory problems from hundreds of thousands of people admitted to hospitals during this time period. Air pollution is also attributed to industrial development. Efforts to reduce air pollution include multiple cities building rail-based public transportation systems to reduce vehicular emissions.

Answer to Question 3

B

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
