this method. In the case of shellfish, they can be farmed a number of ways using bags, cages, or ropes. One of the most beneficial points about shellfish mariculture is that the system is self-sustaining because it doesn’t need feed, fertilizer, insecticides or anti-biotics in turn making the environmental impact of such an operation almost non-existent. In open ocean mariculture, fish are contained in pens, cages, and nets that are towed or float freely in the water. This type of operation…

An estuary is a body of water in which fresh water from streams and rivers flows into seawater-containing oceans (Estuaries, 2008). The mixture of both seawater and fresh water is termed brackish water (Estuaries, 2008). Salinity depends on the exact location of an estuary, as the salt concentration is nonexistent in the fresh water end compared to the sea water end. The normal levels of salinity are between 0.5 to 35 ppt (Estuaries, 2008). Based on the central location of the fish kill site…

shelf life and higher yields, feeding the growing world is easier to obtain. Farmers using GE are also experiencing considerable environmental benefits too. One of the greatest benefits is water quality. Thanks to GE crops, farmers use fewer insecticides and herbicides and that is good for the soil and waterways. With herbicide-resistant crops, farmers have to till the land less often and this improves soil quality and reduces erosion. ("News and Analysis on Genetic Engineering, but the…

the effects of pesticides on foraging bees. They calculate 53 different pesticide residues on 8 crops and number of dead and dying bees. Frazier et al. (2015) finds a decrease in number of forager bees in cotton. Fungicide levels are higher than insecticides. The bees collect residues beyond target crop. The author concludes bees are in coming into contact with agrochemicals. Bee deaths are highest in cotton, pumpkin and…

GMO’s and auto immune diseases such as lupus is such a concern is due to the fact that continuous exposure to toxins and pesticides is one of the main components to triggering an autoimmune disease. GM crops were engineered to produce their own insecticide, which in return kills insects by destroying their digestive tracts. The toxic chemicals used in these crops to enhance their life span has been proven to be harmful to humans’ intestines and can cause what is known as leaky gut. Leaky gut is…
