From trash to treasure
Palapas are becoming big business in Mexico. The brahia dulcis palm is native to the mixteca poblana traditionally, the fronds of these trees are collected by artisans to make sun hats, mats, and baskets for their own use and to sell to tourists. But these products have never reached a wider market do little for the economy of the area. But now things are changing.
Sr.Armando Garcia Azcue has created a business that uses dead palm fronds, and this is improving the local economy. This is how it works: when the palm fronds fall, they are collected from the ground by local workers. The palm trees are not damaged in any way. The fronds are carried to trucks and taken to a warehouse in izucar de Matamoras in the state of Puebla. In the warehouse, some of the frondsare tied into palm sheets. They are fitted onto specially shaped wooden frames. The frames are packed in crates and sent to different parts of the Mexican Republic. They are also exported to the USA, Canada, Australia, and Europe. There they are bought by resort authorities, hotel owner, and private homeowner. When they reach their destination, the frames are assembled by local workers according toSr. Garciá s design, to create small but very beautiful palapas. The palapas are very popular, and this interesting project is providing jobs to people in this of Mexico.

How it all happened

Fossil fuels are natural substances. They are made deep below the surface of our planet from the remains of plants and animals. The three main fossil fuels are coal, oil, natural gas.
Oil and natural gas deposits were formed from the remains of tiny animals and plantsthat lived 300-400 million years ago in marine environments. Over the years, the organic material was subjected to enormous heat and pressure from the weight of the mud and sand on top of them. This turned the organic material into crude oil and natural gas.
Coal formation began over 250 million years ago when the Earth was mostly covered in swamps. Giant tree ferns grew in these swamps, and whenvegetation died, it fell into the swamp water. The plant remains were transformed by bacteria into a material called peat. Over the years, the peat was compressed by mud and sand. Then, in a similar way to the oil and natural gas, the peat beds were first turned into lignite by the weight of the mud and sand above them, and finally hard coal was formed. Sometimes fossil of the original ferns are...
