The lack of people caring is not only affecting us humans in how we treat each other but also other environments around us. The lack of caring by humans is causing innocent lives that cannot talk or defend themselves to die. These beings are animals. Animals are being affected by us not caring about what happens to them our selfish acts are the cause of their deaths. Wildlife extinction has gotten worse because of pollution, but the lack of humans caring has been the biggest cause. Humans have…

Introduction It is generally believed that most buildings are constructed with typical materials such as concrete, wood, and steel. It is true because those materials provide structural safety according to the building’s height, size, or usage. In Ontario area, tremendous buildings are located and have been getting high-rise and ecologic. While usual people think in terms of common envelope system of buildings as curtain-wall or concrete, from my perspective, Terrence Donelly Centre in…

Many of us want to be more green and help the environment but are just not sure how to go about making a positive impact on the world we live in. Luckily, we have some advice for those who wish to reduce their carbon footprint while retaining the same quality of life. We recommend first doing the research and finding fresh ways to green your living space. There are small steps that everyone can take that reduce your negative impact on the environment. Lastly, being green doesnt have to mean…

Extinction is necessary for the Earth’s natural order. It is used as the world 's way of weeding out the weaker species that are unable to adapt or evolve to environmental change thus consequently dying out to make room for the newer better-adapted species which is key in providing the earth with a more sustainable and better-equipped equilibrium. With five mass extinctions notched into the earth 's belt it can hardly be denied that evolution and extinction are anything but a necessary, yet dark…

Many people think being a wildlife biologist is a breeze-they get to spend time with animals all day, right? Not quite. Wildlife biologists have to perform an essential job, which isn't just playing with animals. One of their main priorities is to study animals and wildlife. “They study the physical characteristics of animals, animal behaviors, and the impacts humans have on wildlife and natural habitats” (“Zoologists and Wildlife Biologists”). For example, a Wildlife Biologist studies how a…

needed to fix the energy crisis that had taken control of the nation. To get people involved in the energy conservation efforts, Carter asks that the American citizens “take no unnecessary trips, to use a carpool or public transportation whenever [they] can park [their] car one extra day per week, to obey speed limits, and set [their] thermostats to conserve fuel. Every act of energy conservation is more that common sense... It is an act of Patriotism” (10). Patriotism is embedded deeply in our…

number of research programs, in an effort to produce these technologies. At Congress’s 1975 request to evaluate the technology required to “make possible a new generation of fuel-efficient aircraft,” by the 1980s, NASA established the Aircraft Fuel Conservation Technology Task Force. In its report released during the 1975 Congressional Hearing, NASA outlined six programs in propulsion, aerodynamics and structure, all aimed to reduce fuel consumption without degrading the…

The Sixth Extinction: An Unnatural History is by Elizabeth Kolbert. Kolbert is an American journalist, observer, author, and staff writer at The New Yorker. The Sixth Extinction won the Pulitzer Prize in 2015; I chose this nonfiction book because I hadn’t heard of the concept of a sixth extinction. I had previously learned of multiple extinctions that occurred in the Cretaceous, Ordovician, Permian, and Triassic-Jurassic periods, but I became curious just by the thought of what Kolbert meant by…

of energy via waves, using applied conservation of energy principles. Before this class, I have learned about the law of conservation of energy in PHYS221 with Micheal Greiner. We learned that energy is always conserved and the initial energy of the system should be the same as the final energy of the system. In other words the total energy of an isolated system constant if it is non dissipative meaning there are no energy loss. We did not relate this conservation of energy law with waves, but…

A zoologist a person who studies the behavior, genetics, life progression, and origin of different types of animals. A zoologist may choose to devote their entire studies to just one breed of animal or they can choose to study multiple, it just depends on what the individual is interested in. Some zoologist work at zoos, taking direct care of the animals, which is the basic idea of this career, that everyone has. However they may also be found working at wildlife reserves studying populations,…
