greenhouse gases on the environment by introducing a set of binding emission reduction targets for individual countries. Considering the threatening scale of the problem and the wide geographical distribution of GHG emissions, the Protocol required international cooperation to succeed. During the first commitment period from 2008 to 2012, the Protocol had committed 37 industrialized countries and the European Community to reduce emissions by an average of 5% against 1990 levels. Since the…

In 1992, Tanzania had its first national energy policy and the latest national energy policy was published in 2003. The national policy 2003 mainly focused on the national energy needs in Tanzania, and in the policy, to develop domestic cost effective energy resources, to improve energy reliability, efficiency and security, and to reduce deforestation were also highlighted as the subsidiary objectives. 2003 national energy policy put climate change concept in its content, and it is the first…

made nearly 80% of their earnings by selling cars. Being in the American auto-industry, Subaru is under the supervision of the United States Department of Transportation. Subaru vehicles undergo strenuous testing to ensure that they meet all safety standards and regulations. Certain Subaru models, including the Subaru Impreza WRX S.T.I., are not sold in the U.S. market due to their failure to meet safety and environmental regulations. Although Subaru vehicles have a strong reputation for being…

Standard Oil Company was established in 1870 by John D. Rockefeller in Ohio (Exxon). Not too long after, in 1879 Standard bought three-quarters of Vacuum Oil company, which later became Mobil (Exxon). Three years later in 1882, Rockefeller formed Standard Oil into a trust which included the Standard Oil Company of New Jersey, which later became Exxon, as well as Vacuum, and many others (Exxon). However, following a Supreme Court decision the company was split into 34 unrelated businesses in 1911…

toxic emissions and dust, as they have serious consequences to the well being of people and wildlife. - Recycling is an easy way to be sustainable and has an adverse effect on the environment when keeping in mind how much waste can be created in a…

Early brain imaging studies of musical imagery used PET (positron emission tomogra- phy), which has now been almost completely replaced by fMRI. PET and fMRI each have their pros and cons as methods for functional brain imaging. PET works by com- bining several tricks. Typically, subjects are injected with 2-deoxyglucose, a modified form of sugar that is transported through the bloodstream to cells just like glucose, but cannot be metabolized. As a result, 2-deoxyglucose builds up rapidly in…

person’s pupils for size and make sure they are equal in both eyes, complete coordination and balance checks, as well as their reflexes and monitor for sensory abnormalities. (Cifu 4) In addition to a physical exam, specific testing may need to happen. Standard testing to diagnose a concussion at the Emergency Room usually includes a computed tomography scan, also known as a CT scan. (Sports Concussion Institute 1) A CT scan is an imaging test that can quickly detect bleeding in the brain or…

How threatening it might sound, nuclear medicine is a very common type of treatment, as “On average, one in every two Australians can expect at some stage of his or her life to undergo a nuclear medicine procedure,” (Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organization). It may come as a surprise, but these include Nuclear Imaging such as MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging), Pet scans, CT (Computerized Tomography) CAT (Computerized Axial Tomography). And no it is not A green liquid in a capsule…

is to review, in an unbiased way of brain imaging technologies in investigating the relationship between biology and behaviour. Brain imaging technologies, with their advantages and disadvantages: PET scan/Positron Emission Tomography scan What it is: A PET scan, or Positron Emission Tomography scan is a scan that detects positrons that are emitted from radioactive materials, and is used to scan bodies containing a radioactive tracer/radiotracer/radiopharmaceutical/radionuclide is either…

For a few years all researches have been agreed that the behavior and the human mind, in normal and pathological conditions, are directly related to the function of nervous system. Also psychiatric disorders of affective or cognitive origin are interpreted as the consequence of a particular pathology of the nervous system. Therefore, neuroscience involves all the different branches of psychology that have the suffix “psych”, as for example psychology, psychiatry, psychopathology. All these…
