can be placed within the world, darkness can appear from the most unlikely places anyone could ever suspect. Also, when Joseph Conrad states, “It was difficult to realize that his [the Director of Companies] work was not out there in the luminous estuary, but behind him, within the brooding gloom.” (Joseph Conrad, 2) he speaks of the working conditions to have the same terror and horror. This quotation allows the reader to understand that the working environments of the company may not be as…

Bright and warm, the setting sun lit up the romance between the couple. Hand in hand, they walk the edge of the beach, barefoot. Her white sheer knee length dress waved in the wind, tinting orange and red from the sunset. They smell the salty aroma from the clear blue waves that slowly push onto the beach. “Ohh! Look!” He said as he ran a few feet in front of his longtime girlfriend. “What?” She called as she ran towards him. “A seashell.” He smiled as he gingerly placed in her hand. She looked…

It is required to conserve a certain population-level of every specie in order to prevent biodiversity loss and for ecosystems to continue operating. Whales are starting to extinct and whaling is one of the important causes of this problem. The blue whale is the largest animal and a lot of them are found in the Antarctic. The specie reduced abundantly because of hunting in the 20th century. The Antarctic blue whale is classified as Critically Endangered on the International Union for…

INTRODUCTION Energy sources are a vast number but not all of them are renewable and those that are non-renewable are not going to cater for the next generations if we do not change to live conservatively and sustainable .

The French empire forcing its culture upon its colonies is displayed in his teachings and the symbols. “On the blackboard the four rivers of France, 1 drawn with four different colored chalks, had been flowing toward their estuaries for the past three days.” This represented French colonialism, and how as a teacher, Daru must teach Algerian children about the rivers and lands of their overlords, rather than their own homeland. The ethnic divide is further emphasized by Daru’s…

When the world thinks of New Zealand, they think of clean beautiful waterways, its clean green image and of course, the agriculture, but on the contrary this is actually the opposite. This false image brings in thousands of tourists every single year, benefiting immensely economically. Among tourism, the dairy industry is the biggest economic trade, earning the country around $13.7 billion NZ dollars in export alone. Dairy export in New Zealand goes way back, in 1882 we were the first country to…

Controversy exists over whether biodiversity issues have negative impacts on the ecosystem and environment. While some well-intentioned people believe that the environment would not be affected by biodiversity (biological diversity) problems, I hold onto the view that biodiversity issues strongly influence ecosystems in that they not only effect on the land, but also will create significant challenges for the air and the water resources. Biodiversity is commonly defined as the variety of all…

Strawberry guava, Psidium cattleianum Sabine, is valued by the general public of Hawaii for its ornamental characteristics and fruit, which is frequently prepared into jams, jellies, juices, cakes, and pastries. However, due to false advertising and commercialization, guava as well as coffee, macadamia, passion fruit, and pineapples are seen as icons of Hawaii, yet they aren’t native to Hawaii. Even though these species aren’t native to Hawaii, coffee, macadamia, passion fruit, and pineapples do…
