1) Leia o texto para responder à questão.

There is no agent of ecological imperialism more ferocious than the wild pig.
Wherever Europeans invaded, from the Americas to Australia, so did their pigs,
many of which escaped into the countryside to wreak havoc. The beasts tear
through native plants and animals, they spread disease, they destroy crops, and
they reconstruct whole ecosystems in their wake. They’re not so much pests as
they are chaos embodied.
Now add climate change to the wild pig’s résumé of destruction. In their never-
ending search for food, the pigs root through soils, churning the dirt like a farmer
tills fields. Scientists already knew, to some extent, that this releases the carbon
that’s locked in the soil, but researchers in Australia, New Zealand, and the US
have now calculated how much soil wild pigs may be disturbing worldwide. The
carbon dioxide emissions that they produce annually, the authors concluded,
equal that of more than a million cars.
It’s yet another piece of an increasingly worrisome puzzle, showing how
modification of the land has — in this case, inadvertently — exacerbated climate
change. “Anytime you disturb soil, you’re causing emissions,” says University of
Queensland ecologist Christopher O’Bryan, lead author on a new paper
describing the research in the journal Global Change Biology. “When you till soil
for agriculture, for example, or you have widespread land-use change —
urbanization, forest loss.”
Given their domination of whole landscapes, pigs had to be making things worse,
the researchers knew, but no one had modeled it worldwide. “We started to
realize there’s a big gap at the global scale looking at this question,” O’Bryan
adds.

2) Leia o texto para responder a questão.

According to the Union of Concerned Scientists, there are nearly 2,800 working
satellites in space. We depend on these devices for technology we use every
day, such as video calls, online maps, satellite TV, and weather tracking.
Scientists use them to study space and learn more about our planet.
But there are many other satellites in orbit that are no longer working. They’re
among the objects cluttering up space. Some of these eventually fall back toward
Earth, either landing or burning up in the atmosphere. But much of this space
junk circles Earth for decades.
Orbital debris, a type of space junk, is any human-made object that has stopped
working but continues to float around the Earth. This includes abandoned
satellites and pieces of spacecraft, such as rocket stages.
Space junk also includes fragments of objects. These occur when satellites
collide with things. They also result from an object crashing into an old rocket
stage that still contains fuel, causing an explosion.
Heather Cowardin works at NASA. She says the United States is tracking more
than 23,000 pieces of space debris. These tiny fragments can damage working
satellites, which can affect research in space. That’s why cleanup efforts are so
important.
