Rhetorical Analysis: More Green from Your Green Building One thing most people can agree on is that we as a planet need to improve our sustainability and hopefully save money in doing so. People often think about carbon dioxide omissions or melting ice caps but one of the most useful ways to improve is by focusing on the buildings in which we live! While having a code to keep us safe is helpful for people, having a green construction code can help the Earth. Benefits apply to almost everyone…

DISADVANTAGES The main disadvantage of having a detached garage is when you really use it for parking your vehicles and you have to get to them or get out of them during inclement weather. You have to walk your way through the heat or cold, depending on the season, from your house into the garage or vice versa. If you are using your garage as an additional storage place, this also means that the items you kept are farther away from you when you need them. It would also be a bit inconvenient…

the score, one fast look at the pictogram will be enough to have a general information about the environmental impact of a procedure. However, the drawbacks of this method are non-consideration of the amount of chemicals used in the analysis and the waste generated (qualitative rather than quantitative analysis) and the obtained information is general. In addition, the search of each chemical used in the procedure in official lists is inconvenient and time wasting [155 - 157]. An improvement to…

Apparently, more than one hundred and eleven million dollars have been spent and invested in the recycling industry. Now why would someone spend one hundred and eleven million dollars on the recycling industry one may ask, the answer is simple... economy benefits. Recycling can lower capital cost, make us use 80 to 90 percent less energy, lower our…

The two sides of the never ending battle between the pros and cons of bottled water and tap water takes a new victim with every statistic, but the fact of the matter is tap water takes the metaphorical cake in every instance. Not only does the regulation of tap water help the economy by making state sponsored jobs,and costing considerably less, but tap water is also better for the environment with no plastic bottles rotting away in landfills. The constant regulation of tap water also makes it…

the EPA system averages out that 75% of the American waste stream of garbage is only 30% recycled which isn’t even half of it. Therefore ISA should go green and have recycle bins which then the recycled items will be processed to a recycling company. One of the reasons recycling should be mandatory is because it will protect wildlife from decreasing the risk of killing an animal from lake to sea, or from forest to rivers. The amount of waste found on land will decrease which will…

Humes begins his novel by describing landfills and the struggles many face with maintaining them due to incorrect sealing, being uneducated in waste management, and making excuses.
