John Scanlon Tuesday 30 August 2016 10.00 EDT https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2016/aug/30/7-billion-people-how-protect-wildlife-endangered-species#img-1 Consumers and collectors want sturgeon caviar, snakeskin bags, shark meat and fins, wild snowdrop bulbs, precious rosewood fuiture, and quality agarwood oil, as well as rare birds, reptiles, cacti and orchids. But they rarely stop to think about their origins. There are now over seven billion people consuming biodiversity every day in the form of medicines, food, clothing, fuiture, perfumes and luxury goods. Demand for products drawn from nature is increasing, and with it pressure is growing on some of our wildlife species. Our capacity to harvest from the wild has no limits, and mode transport has no frontiers. There are 1.1 billion inteational tourist arrivals a year, 100,000 flights every day, and 500 million containers are shipped a year, allo

Diplomat and Diplomacy A diplomat is a person appointed by a state to conduct diplomacy with another state or inteational organization. The main functions of diplomats revolve around the representation and protection of the interests and nationals of the sending state, as well as the promotion of information and friendly relations. Diplomats in posts collect and report information that could affect national interests, often with advice about how the home country govement should respond. Then, once any policy response has been decided in the home country's capital, posts bear major responsibility for implementing it. Diplomats have the job of conveying, in the most persuasive way possible, the views of the home govement to the govements to which they are accredited and, in doing so, to try to convince those govements to act in ways that suit home country interests. In this way, diplomats are part of the begiing and the end of each loop in the continuous process through w

Treaty A treaty is an agreement under inteational law entered into by actors in inteational law, namely sovereign states and inteational organizations. Treaties can be loosely compared to contracts: both are means of willing parties assuming obligations among themselves, and a party to either that fails to live up to their obligations can be held liable under inteational law. A treaty may also be known as an agreement, protocol, covenant, convention, pact, or exchange of letters. Bilateral and multilateral treaties Bilateral treaties are concluded between two states or entities. It is possible, however, for a bilateral treaty to have more than two parties; consider for instance the bilateral treaties between Switzerland and the European Union (EU) following the Swiss rejection of the European Economic Area agreement. Each of these treaties has seventeen parties. These however are still bilateral. The parties are divided into two groups, the Swiss ("on the one part") and the EU

Read the story, label the type of formulaic language, and then translate it to Persian. In 2009, I set off on a long jouey. As I left my house, my neighbor shouted, “Good luck!” I didn’t know at that moment that I would not see him again for three years. I board the plane at Heathrow, and soon it took off for Malaysia. When we touched down in Kuala Lumpur, I couldn’t wait to get off the plane. I took a bus to the city center and spent the night at a youth hostel. The first person I met was someone I had been at school with years ago. “It’s a small world” he said when he saw me. My friend suggested that we join forces. “There’s safety in numbers,” he said. “Let’s hit the road together”. I was in two minds whether to go with him but finally decided to say yes. We travelled together for six months and had a whale of a time. We spent money like there was no tomorrow. So I had to twist my dad’s arm and persuade him to send me some more money so I could tr
