Abstract This paper details the causes and extent of the pollution at Tar Creek Superfund site in Ottawa County, Oklahoma. This Superfund site is a heavy metal-contaminated area that was created by the aftermath of zinc and lead mining operations throughout the 1900s. The pollution has put local inhabitants at risk of different health issues, and while risk assessments have shown that no significant health risks are obvious compared to the rest of the state of Oklahoma, blood lead levels have…

The Keystone XL pipeline was commissioned in 2010. It “is a $7 billion pipeline approximately 1,661 miles in length and 36 inches wide” (Palliser 2012, 8). The company that would run this project is TransCanada and the pipeline “would run from Hardisty, Alberta, to Nederland, Texas, and traverse Montana, South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma, and Texas” (Palliser 2012, 8). The media has written about the different perspectives on this proposed project. The Indian Country Today article is…

Depositional environment: The Depositional environment throughout the Cooper Basin formations is wholly non-marine, with the Patchawarra formation being a fluvial/deltaic depositional environment, with point-bar sandstones the most common reservoir type. Trap structures: Traps in the Cooper Basin are recognised as being structural e.g Anticlines, Stratigraphic e.g. facies change or a combination of these. Most traps in the Patchawarra formation are combination traps and lie somewhere between…

Tin is a Chemical element its symbol is Sn. Its location on the periodic table of elements is period 5 group 14. Its atomic number is 50 and the atomic weight is 118.71. It has 50 protons, 50 electrons, and 69 neutrons. Tin is a solid, ductile, malleable, silvery-white metal. Tin melts at a low temperature of about 232 °C (450 °F). Tin resists corrosion from water, but can be attacked by acids. Around 5000 years ago, humans first began mining and incorporating tin with copper to create bronze…

Summary for Burnett’s “Wind Power Puffery” As a costly power source in terms of both money and the environment, wind power has not lived up to its promises of achieving an environmentally friendly alternative to conventional power plants (Burnett 247-248). So argues H. Sterling Burnett in his article, “Wind Power Puffery.” He defends this argument with many specific examples, explaining that wind power falls short of other power sources primarily in that it only generates electricity when the…
