Nestled on the pristine shores of the Admiralty Gulf opposite the Mitchell Plateau in Western Australia, the Kimberley Coastal Camp can't be accessed by road. Arrival is either by a spectacular floatplane experience with an impressive water landing or an exhilarating…

Overfishing is a globally recognized issue. There’s no doubt that within the not so distant future that our oceans will have little to none edible fish. What we do now directly affects the future. Studies show that by the year 2050 we will have nearly depleted all edible fish stocks on the planet. The thing is that not only does our local ocean ecosystem get effected by local overfishing but also by overfishing world wide because of how certain fish migrate around the world to other areas. A…

Worldwide, overfishing has had profound effects on coastal ecosystems. Additionally, the approach that humans have taken to commercial fishing such as targeting of apex predators first and then fishing down the food chain has a negative effect on predators in most regional seas of the world. However, while researchers may know the effect that overfishing has had on specific species, how this may influence the rest of the ecosystem is relatively unpredictable. It is hypothesized that the loss of…

The melting ice in the Arctic has allowed for the potential navigation during the summer months, of two shipping routes formerly impassable; the Northwest Passage, which runs through northern Canada and the Northern Sea route, north of the Russian mainland. (Anderson, A., 2009). The potential use of these routes would mean that goods would no longer have to travel through the Suez or Panama canals, shortening the distance by thousands of miles. (Anderson 2009). In fact, it is estimated that…

The islands of the Bahamas are flat and not particularly good for crop growth. The isn’t infertile, but in most places the ground is rock and it barely rains for months. As a result of the dwarf amount of rain there is little agriculture history in the Bahamas. The Bahamas are a wonderful and exotic place to be. It’s filled with exotic animals and a great tourist attraction. The islands of the Bahamas house a number of fruits and vegetables. Many of the islands are too dry to grow any foods.…

My Favorite Place The Florida Keyes conjures up for me a myriad of memories and emotions, a peace and tranquility that no other place has been able to bring me too. I close my eyes and see the cerulean crystalline waters looking out of my dad’s tan 1986 Toyota land cruiser, trailing his 16ft flats boat behind us. This was my favorite part of the drive when we leave Florida City and pass by the edges of the Everglades onto that famous 7-mile bridge. I would get a first real look at the expanse of…

What is the history lesson we will be learning this day in class today? We are going to talk about a year that helps start a large exchange between the Europeans and the new worlds across the Atlantic Ocean. Now if you are wondering what I am talking about, it is simple we are going to talk about some events that happened in the year fourteen ninety-two by a man we immortalize not only in history as the discoverer of America and have his own day in his name called Columbus’ day. Although should…
