Choosing the right passengers. In the passage the lifeboat you are asked to choose 10 poor people swimming in water to save. The lifeboat holds up to 60 people and 50 seats are already taken by the wealthy. How do you choose what passengers to let in the boat?

My Personal opinion vs overpopulation, and should a law be passed as to how many children a poor person can have to stop overpopulation, and…

or simply to fill a craving and empty stomach. However, many do not consider how much waste is produced by these outings. Lots of times people leave to-go boxes on their table by mistake right before they leave, many plastics and glasses (like bottled drinks) are thrown away and not recycled, and countless restaurants use plastic cutlery over regular cutlery. The restaurant industry produces a large amount of waste and there are many ways that a good portion of it can be eliminated. Sadly, more…

Introduction Egg cartons can be made from foam, plastic, or recycled paper; they are designed to keep eggs from breaking when they are transported from one place to another. Sadly, they do a very poor job of keeping eggs safe if a carton of eggs is accidently dropped. Nobody likes it when they buy a carton of eggs only to accidently drop it on the way home. Finding most of their eggs broken and egg yolk leaking everywhere when they open the carton. I decided to try and figure out if another…

Introduction Every year an average of 88,000 pounds of debris washes up on California beaches, and there is an estimated 3.5 million tons of trash in the Pacific Ocean alone. I know what you’re thinking, why does this matter to us? I had the same question, so I researched the topic and found a plethora of information from scientists and sailors alike. Today I will explain to you why the amount of debris is so unnerving and urge you to do what we can do to help clean this problem up. Body Need…

debris in this area is from human use, disposal, littering, dumping, etc. Most of the plastic actually comes from land and not ships, as some might assume. In fact, only about twenty percent of oceanic waste comes from ships. The main sources are manufacturing products, management of trash, and improper waste disposal (EPA, 2011). Through air and sea currents, any plastic item can become litter and eventually end up in the patch region. Plastic bags, often found in stores of every kind, are…

Hello and welcome to The Food Fad Show. Today we’re talking about food waste. Did you know that globally, we waste around one third of the food we produce. One third! Can you believe that? Here in the UK, we get rid of 7.2 million tonnes of food every year – more than half of which could be eaten safely. That’s enough food to fill Wembley Stadium … not once, but seven times per year. {Sound of audience reaction, e.g. “Wow!”} Host: Joining me here in the studio we have the Taylor family. A year…

pollution. Coastal fishing guide Mike Connor said, “his business is off 50 percent this year because of the algae blooms” (Guest 2015). The sugar fields are discarding waste in the surrounding freshwater watercourses and the contaminated water flows into the saltwater canals throughout south Florida from the levee runoffs. The rest of the waste is thrust into canals joined to both the Caloosahatchee and St. Lucie rivers, sending numerous of hundred billion gallons a year of phosphorous laden…

use unnecessary plastic there would be less plastic and garbage around to worry about. People use and waste plastic so much that they do not even realize how much they are really using.
