Global warming. This topic or word has probably come up so many times over the past few months, maybe in daily conversations, on the media, at school or even at the workplace, and most of the time, it’s not always good things we hear. This might be true in some cases, especially considering the fact that from 1948 to 2013, the average annual temperature of Canada has increased by 1.6 degree Celsius (StatCan, n.d.). Resulting, in a much more rapid rate of melting at the northern ice caps. For…

It was mid-December in the foothills of Georgia’s Appalachian Mountains. Winter had rolled in overnight and the temperatures had plummeted. The night before had been cold, but the morning was even colder. The cold weather had made the horses’ troughs freeze over. So, it was our job to go and break this ice, why? I have no clue, but it was. My two brothers, Ian and Eli, and I set out to attempt to finish this task before noon. My brothers were okay, but they are older brothers, so you know how it…

Subtly and dexterously, Rosenberg plays around with words and employs their symbolic association to communicate how terrible an effect the war has on the world. As the flames of the war burst forth, nature is dressed in a winter’s gown and embellished with its impressions, “ice and frost and snow,” which cover the “Summer land” of South Africa, where Rosenberg is when the drums of the war are sounded in Europe, almost as if it is the winter of the whole world. Such a conceptualization…

Would you like a president who has insane ideas to fix America, wants to raise your taxes for his own profit, does not care about global warming and wants to go “100%” back to fossil fuels, and wants riots? Do you know who this man is? His name is Donald Trump, the only remaining Republican nominee. Some people think he will “Make America Great Again,” but actually his ideas could destroy America. Some of them could possibly cause World War Three. Which in turn could cause destruction of many…

of deforestation for Palm oil creation could be diminished as the "consumers" have a lot of pressure and power on the stockholders and governments if they demand them to clean up throughout the supply chain of the production to have a sustainable system.

According to Greenpeace, the fire that was brought on because of deforestation in 2015 added to the seriousness of spending more than 30…

Modern pollution is nothing like it was in past years. Pollution itself is a more recent historical problem that has been brought to many people’s attention. One of the biggest phenomena is called El Niño. “El Niño, the periodic warming of the Pacific Ocean that alters climate around the world, has already set records in 1997, and the worst is possibly still to come”(Today’s Science). It’s first major outbreak was in 1982-83, it’s the spark that rose attention to modern pollution. Although,…

Survivalists are individuals who go above and beyond to plan for a secure future in the event of disaster. When most people think of survivalists, or preppers, they automatically associate the group with the negative stigma that accompanies the history. “You can bet Ted Nugent’s crossbow that, for most people, the term “survivalists”—or the more polite “preppers”—conjures images of tinfoil-hat-wearing conspiracy theorists holed up in Montana hoarding canned pinto beans and assault weapons” (O’…
