These 10 Powerful Forces Run the World

3. Vultures

Vultures are a natural disposal unit for this earth and one of the most important as they consume as much as 70% of the meat in some regions of Africa. In this way they consume the carcasses strewn in the wild and prevent the spread of diseases. They are also a natural obstacle to the contamination of water and landscape. Interestingly, vultures destroy the pathogens and bacteria that make rats and wild dogs carriers for diseases like anthrax, cholera, rabies and salmonella. This natural disposal unit is disappearing at a fast pace and is a threat to the ecology of this world. It is incredible that something so understated is playing such a vital role in our sustenance and well being, as we all know that keeping our environment healthy is important for all the species to live and develop, so learning about the carbon footprint can help people keep a more healthy environment by doing less things that  affect it, so families and even corporations can implement these on their policies, learning from resources like carbonclick for corporations and others.

2. FUNGI

Fungi is quite an important thing even if we don’t like it. First things first, it gave us one of the most important antibiotic Penicillin. Before the advent of the antibiotic, 10 million people died in Europe alone (during  the World War) and the majority of these deaths was due to infections. Scientists say that Fungi allowed plants to move onto land around 600 million years ago which otherwise would have left the world as an ocean.  Fungi help in the making of bread, wine, cheese and a few species like the common mushroom are edible to us. One of the most important role that Fungi play is the decomposition. They decompose dead and living matter through secretions that digest even the strongest of substances like the plant cellulose.  Like vultures, fungi too are a blessing to the ecosystem.
