In recent decades, there has been an increased level of concern about the upward trend of average global temperature caused by climate change. Global surface temperature in 1999 increased at a higher rate than any other recordings of the previous years, going from changes of a couple hundredths to the more previous change of 0.2˚C (Hansen et al, 1999).

The Life and Legacy of Genghis Khan Every civilization that had been found and developed, soon after they rose, would fall. But then a new one would rise not too far from there or become a whole new one out of the old rubble. Usually this was due to new settlers, an economic rise, or influences from other civilizations.

Nature is the elementary or intrinsic feature of an entity, especially when seen as a characteristic of it. When we refer to ‘nature’ we will discuss it relative to ‘human nature’, which is the essential metaphysical argumentation of distinguishing traits that humans tend to hold naturally; in other words the human way of thinking, feeling, and acting.

George Orwell, the pen name of Eric Arthur Blair, was born in India in 1903 during the time when the country was under British colonial rule. He moved to England when he was very young, but being born in India during such a hard time for India caused him family many issues so he grew up with a less than satisfactory childhood. His place of birth might explain why he kept England as itself in 1984 when he gave all the other countries different names for the new dystopian world he created. He…

Physically attractive individuals are often viewed more favourably than unattractive people on dimensions that are weakly related or unrelated to physical looks, glamorized such as intelligence, sociability, and morality (Smith, McIntosh and Bazzini, 1999). The fact that Hollywood culture is predominantly white, Caucasian and that it has such power over people, shows how it is considered to be the mainstream standard of beauty.
