Does homeostasis exist in the environmental sense?

I need help doing bio 100. Im stuck on this question for homework. Thanks!



Does homeostasis exist in the environmental sense?



Can ethanol help us with maintaining environmental homeostasis? Why or why not?



Scientists know that corn is the most polluting crop we presently grow. It has the heaviest use of pesticides and herbicides which lead to greater air, land, and water pollution. So if we grow more corn for fuel, we will be polluting our environment in other ways. This is a problem. Are we trading one problem for another? What do you think we should do?Does homeostasis exist in the environmental sense?1) Homeostasis is the maintenance of stable *internal* conditions in animals so, there is no homeostasis in the environment. (I hope that this is what you were asking)



2)?



3) Get rid of all fuels and major pollutants
