While some employees have been brought back following the pandemic, trends in the state's coalindustry point to trouble ahead for East Finley Township and Washington County in the absence ofconcerted efforts to diversify the economy and build community resilience. In the past month, the largestcoal-burning power plant operating in Pennsylvania announced that it will be shut down due to the lowprice of natural gas, higher prices for coal, unseasonably warm winters and environmental regulations,including the state's intention to join the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative.

Additionally, we treat the impact of ACC on fire as inde-pendent from the effects of fire management (e.g., suppressionand wildland fire use policies), ignitions, land cover (e.g., exur-ban development), and vegetation changes beyond the degree towhich they modulate the relationship between fuel aridity andforest fire area. These factors have likely added to the areaburned across the western US forests and potentially amplifiedthe sensitivity of wildfire activity to climate variability and changein recent decades

Results

century of government policies of complete fire suppression havedepressed fire frequencies below natural levels and caused sub-stantial accumulations of biomass and dead matter that can serveas fuel

Thesefindings support a management strategy of reducing fuel loads tominimize the future potential of catastrophic fires under climatechange. Although prescribed burning, managed wildland fire, andmechanical fuel reduction treatments across public and privatelands may release greenhouse gases in the short term, these prac-tices can augment carbon storage in the long term by shiftinggrowing space from many small trees to fewer large, old treesand also enhance resilience to stress and disturbance (Hurteauand Brooks, 2011; Collins et al., 2014; Hurteau et al., 2014) andpotential increases in wildfire frequency due to climate change(Moritz et al., 2012).

Temporality also plays a role within the poem

The opening line reveals where Dickinson resided when she wrote this poem. If the birds arereporting from the south then the narrator lives in the north.

In the same way war is composed of a variety of experiences, so are Dickinson’s poems.

Both politics and plants play a role in how Dickinson chooses to portraywar and the stance she intends to convey-no one poem is approached in the same manner.

She coins the term Poetess and states

Some argue that Dickinson was not politically involved due to the perception of her beingan isolated individual

Under these arrangements, the customary lexis of sexuality, including "reproduction," "motherhood," "pleasure," and "desire" are thrown into unrelieved crisis

Both remote learning and face-to-face teaching have their own benefits, but remote learning is ultimately a better choice during the pandemic as it can prevent the spread of the pandemic more effectively, save costs, and have greater flexibility than returning to school

Remote learning can reduce the risk of contracting the virus for students as it does not require close contact with each other

Many people complain about the low efficiency of remote learning, lack of learning atmosphere, and more online homework

During the pandemic, remote learning is surely a better way to learn than face-to-face teaching.
