Allocation of resources

supported by quality research and innovative policies, and procedures. (Walls, 2006). “Today’s conventional or industrial agriculture is considered unsustainable because it is similarly eroding natural resources faster than the environment can regenerate them and because it depends heavily on resources that are non-renewable” (Horrigan et.al, 2002). Sustainable agriculture is a relatively new technique of farming, many developed countries have integrated this method into their production of…

insecurity (Wutich & Ragsdale, 2008). Research regarding the psychosocial impacts of water insecurity is still very limited, therefore scientists rely on studies of food insecurity. Research does show that food insecurity (i.e. insecure access to a basic resource) is associated with emotional distress, anxiety, and depression (Coates et al., 2006; Hadley & Patil, 2006; Whitaker, Phillips, & Orzol, 2006). A 2002 study found that the progression of food insecurity is followed by a predictable…

Communication has been an ever-changing process with the invention of various technologies and the different social medium. Communication in the workforce for the most part has remained the same among co-workers despite the myriad of technological advances and outlets for communication. In my company for example, communication amongst employee is lacking in many ways and for a number of different reasons. There are people within the company at the very same office location that have never…

Many places across the globe are being affected by severe environmental changes. Water is something humans cannot live without and when it is polluted there becomes major problems with human’s health. Water pollution is a huge issue in a variety of areas in the world but especially small communities in Africa. These communities are suffering with limited fresh water. The scale of water pollution is somewhat vast in these communities as diamond mining is a huge driver of this problem. “With…

The future business environment will encompass extraordinarily complex problems and issues. Human resource managers will need to plan and implement sound strategies to meet these challenges, placing particular attention on ethics, technologies, and regulations. In addition to a consideration of these emerging challenges, case studies of Hewlett Packard and Morgan Stanley can help to understand how firms are reacting to them today. The problem of ethics relates to employee privacy. As work and…

A classroom where there are high levels of academic expectations for all learners will be a classroom with low level of behaviors and higher student achievement (Martella, 2015). Recent research on inclusive education reveals that students who have disabilities are receiving their education in the general education classroom more and more often with positive results. McLeskey et al.’s (2004, 2010) research, as well as the 2008 Individuals with Disabilities Education Act Implementation Report…

I am currently employed in the Human Resource department for a small community hospital in West Orlando. I have worked in healthcare for 30 years in various departments but I have found my passion in Human Resources for the past fifteen years. Soon after a merger with a large hospital system, I was informed that I would not be able to remain in my position without a college degree. I was given the choice to return to college or accept a demotion into another position within the hospital. That…

Thales, one of the philosophers who believe that everything arises from material, claims that water is the first principle. He may have reached this conclusion in observing that “everything’s food is moist, and that moisture is the source and prerequisite for the life of warmth itself”.(Aristotle, Metaphysics 983b6-32 Ross). The essence of Thales’ s thinking is that the material which anything can trace back to is the first principle. In this case, according to him, is water, since water is…

“The Unconscious Competent” is level 4 on Levels of Behavior. Jolles states, “Natural Unconscious Competents would seem to have it made if it were not for one problem. Without ever being consciously aware of what it is they are doing correctly, they fall prey to second-guessing themselves”. 4. Jolles mentions eight different personality types that may attend a training session. Name two personalities he mentions and explain how you, as a trainer, would deal with each in your workshop. 1)…

Bottled Water vs Tap Water Water is an essential component to our lives; without it, we would die. The planet only has a limited amount of this resource that is available to drink and use. Even though the Earth is roughly 75% water, it is salt water that is unusable to a household in modern society. To convert it takes time, resources, and a lot of money, therefore we have to make sure we use the less than 5% of total freshwater in the world effectively. According to the water tasting lab, the…
