development of alternative energies is high, to produce the electricity through alternative sources is inferior compared to price of fossil fuels (Kukreja). The only cost after development is the price of maintenance, but when a structure of a hybrid alternative energy system is broken, the system should still produce power. If these parts of a fossil fuel factory are broken, then it is likely it would stop producing or it could possibly become a danger (McCarthy). Alternative energy has a…
The following items were searched: Holistic care, patient rights, person-centered care, individualized care, holistic nursing, and complementary and alternative medicine (CAM). Literature reviews revealed a commonality in holistic care and improved patient outcomes, compliance, and/or satisfaction. Three studies were identified as being significant: Suhonen 2011, Povlsen 2011, and Robinson 2008. Each…
and its environment for granted. In today’s world especially, the environment suffers at the cost of economic success. In China, the improving, yet short-sighted economy has directly led to the destruction of the environment, but with the help of alternative energy sources, its ecosystem will be able to thrive once again. To start, China’s otherwise volatile economy has remarkably improved in the last thirty-five years. In fact, according to a statistic put out by Marginal Revolution…
1. What does the term “renewable” mean? The term renewable when referencing resources means a source of energy that is not exhausted by use, types of renewable resources include water, wind and solar power. 2. Which two renewable energy forms did you choose? In this DF I’d like to discuss biofuel and hydrokinetic power. 3. For each, describe two benefits. Biofuel yields many benefits, however, I feel like the two most important benefits we see when utilizing biofuels are, number one is that…
Other stakeholders outside the immediate circle of those conducting the study would be those who provide funding for the research. Groups involved in complimentary, alternative, holistic, and integrative therapies would be approached to provide financial support to complete the study. A champion is someone who can overcome the barriers in implementing evidence-based practice (EBP). A champion for this project would be…
Yin and Yang In order to understand Chinese Therapeutic Music, it is necessary to understand two concepts of Chinese culture and medicine. The principle of Yin and Yang is that there is a tangible physical body and an intangible energy body. The physical body and the energy body are related with the principles of Yin and Yang. Yin and Yang are like the two sides of a coin, as neither side is inherently better or worse than the other side is, but one side cannot exist without the other. A change…
Tylenol? Well 30 percent of adults use Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM). CAM is a term describing health and wellness therapies. These typical therapies…
raw, acoustic recording. While both versions of the song show a similar intimacy, the varying ways they were produced and the decisions made by the artists influenced the intimacy in different ways. The Smiths, formed in 1982, were an English alternative rock band from Manchester. The band has cited the works…
Alternative energies are becoming a major focus point as climate change reports are showing staggering statistics on how negatively fossil fuels are effecting the earth’s climate. Per the Government of Canada (2016), human activity has been the number one cause of climate change on earth. The suns intensity and volcanic activity are the only natural causes to climate change today. The burning of fossil fuels such as coal, oil, and natural gas, are the leading causes of today’s climate change…
Complementary and Alternative Medicines (CAMs) are a great addition to the medical world. This alternative grants individuals the ability to make their own decisions with their medical issues. By drawing on the authors Warren et al, Armstrong and Armstrong, the film Alternative Fix, and lectures by Shelley Z. Reuter, I can illustrate their main points regarding stakeholders, the private versus the public healthcare system and the struggle of CAMs within Sociology of Health and Medicine. All in…
