Compact fluorescent lamp

Mercury is the most potent neurotoxin known to man. Meaning, there are no other known chemicals which affect your brain as drastically. And worse, mercury doesn 't break down in the body, or in the environment. It just keeps accumulating (Kroll). So not only is mercury bad for people and their health, but there is no way to get rid of it. When choosing a light bulb that is going to be all over a house, I would prefer one not streaming out with mercury. Compact fluorescent lamps will help people health wise and help the Earth by not letting out so much mercury, a greenhouse gas which increases global warming. More than 325,000 babies born each year are affected by mercury poisoning (Kroll); cutting back mercury exposure even by a little bit by switching to CFLs could help out. Of course it would take many people performing the switch before any drastic changes occur, however it is an easy step to take to help the Earth and the people living on…

I would then look at the camera and say: But perhaps fluorescent lighting is not solely to blame for eyestrain. Televisions, video games, tablets, smartphones, eBooks, and many other digital devices can be major contributing factors to eyestrain (Sikes, 2014). Then I would include this graphic to emphasize my point, “About 28 percent of people spend 10 or more hours daily in front of digital devices. The number only goes up from there, as about 65 percent spend three to nine hours per day in…

intersecting lines, and cubism to emphasize the misery of the people rather than the focusing on the entire incident. When first looking at the image, the eyes are drawn to the center where there are intersecting lines that start at the bottom corners and meet at the top of the lamp. We see several victims of the bombing, some dead some living, a large, white linear shape in the background, an abstract horse and a disfigured bull. Although the focus is concentrated on the heart of the…

exposure is often enough to relieve winter depression. The key is to be consistent and make time for sunlight every day. In some northern areas, the days are too short and the sunlight does not have enough intensity for this simple method to be beneficial.
