Polar region

The Polar Regions are too cold to support a variety of life. However, scientists have discovered life forms that thrive in this cold environment, and they term the polar oceans as important in maintaining a balance on earth. The amount of water frozen in these regions can be destructive if melted nod released to the warm waters. The McMurdo station is a destination for many scientists to conduct their studies on the waters and the life forms that survive in the cold environment (Nold, 2002). However, that stations fecal waste management is posing a threat to the organisms living in water as well as to the scientists themselves. The station releases the water into a point not far away from drinking water inlet. A study conducted by Sally confirms the presence of Escherichia Coli in the water surrounding the sewage outfall and the drinking water intake point.…

(97%) of climate scientist believe that climate change is real and effected by human actives. ("Global Warming Petition Project," n.d.) & ("31,000 scientists say "no convincing evidence". — OSS Foundation," n.d.) As for the increase snowfall, especial in 2014, if there is an increase amount of water vapor in the air there will be, by default, more precipitation. (Samenow, 2014) Higher temperatures allow for a higher relative humidity and when there are surface temperatures near or below freezing…

Pollution and how it affects our polar regions. Pollution in the polar regions and why it’s a probem The polar regions are frequently neglected in discussions about the environment, but they shouldn't be. The environment of the polar regions is particularly susceptible to human impacts such as pollution and the depletion of the ozone layer. Moreover, the effects of global warming on the polar regions are likely to have major repercussions in the rest of the world. How does pollution in the…

it is experiencing will be accelerating, as well as the lives, millions of people being affected because there will be a rise in water, and in some places they won 't even have any water. Sea level rises, the storm surge will affect the Mega Delta Zhujiang, which can stimulate river flooding, along with the decline of China 's precipitation decline and the droughts of China 's delta region. As Sea Ice is going to melt is going to cause the Earth to get warmer and when that happens, it can…

prepare both the U.S and Mexico for environmental response, and stewardship. The Border 2020 project was created under the La Paz (The Peace) agreement in 1983 . Building off the border 2012 project, the latest edition will break into a two year plan, conquering each goal. The E.P.A and SEMARNAT, as well as other local governments, encourage the community to be actively involved. Project responsibilities are broken down into 3 networks. The first network being the Regional Workgroups. In…

Regionalism is a complex ideology, as it is dependent on the definition of region. Defining region has become a daunting task by many in the political science community. For this paper, Cochrane and Perrella’s (2012) definition of region “as the physical space surrounding an individual,” and regionalism “as an affective attachment to the people, places and institutions within a geographic area,” will be used. By defining in such a way, Cochrane and Perrella account for the possibility of change…

Throughout this course we’ve examined Appalachia as a separate and distinct region within the United States. The question of whether it’s a subculture or a colony is rather muddy at best. The Oxford Dictionary defines subculture as: “A cultural group within a larger culture, often having beliefs or interests at variance with those of the larger culture”. While this is true of Appalachia to some degree, the problem lies within its geographical area and the large number of subcultures that live in…

impact on governance structures) required time and effort to shift perceptions that this is a practical option. Regionalisation was described poignantly by one interviewee as a way to “centralise where [the sector] must and distribute where they can” in order to mobilise capability better. To do so, DHBs within each region need to cooperate with one another because as one interviewee so directly put it, “[we are] short of money and workforce and we need to simplify and establish a foundation as…

that is big in my family. Christmas, Thanksgiving, Easter, Mother’s Day and so on, we always have a big feast. In a way, food brings my family and I closer as we always bond over a meal. Growing up I loved helping my mom out in the kitchen. Almost 20 years old and I still love to sit in the kitchen to either watch or help my mother make food. I cannot wait to have my own family, to teach and make memories with my children in the kitchen. Without food and get together that my family have, we…
