Writer, Bill McKibben, first warned the world of global warming twenty years ago with his book “The End of Nature.” His warnings went unheard and now he insists we listen and become more informed. McKibben urges for people to realize we’ve waited too long and now the many changes of the world are already underway and there’s not much we can do. Our once sustainable Earth is now melting, drying, burning, and acidifying. McKibben says the old Earth we lived on, no longer exists. The carbon rate in…

Plan B 4.0 states that, “(t)he Earth’s temperature is rising. It has gone up 0.6 degrees Celsius (1 degree Fahrenheit) since 1970, and it is projected to rise by up to 6 degrees Celsius (11 degrees Fahrenheit) by the end of this century” (Brown, L. 2009); climate change is a highly controversial topic which many individuals argue for and against its occurrence on the planet. The issue of climate change has become gradually more pressing and there has been numerous research done by highly…

The most important thing on our planet to keep all things running is the sun. It gives off rays that help the plants and trees grow which give us oxygen. Within the twenty-four hour rang we have in a day the sun splits it into two halves; Night and day. However the path of they sun is always changing and is never the same. Just like any other star it rises in the east and sets in the west. As time goes by you begin noticing the sun changes its exact paths. The sun’s path through the sky is…

Amanda Stevenson Professor Bradley WC 201 29 November 2016 She Didn’t Ask for It Modesty is determined differently in varying countries and regions of the world; differences range from regional climate to religious influences, with other factors in between. The topic of modesty is often directed at women, suggesting it is the duty of woman to act and dress modestly as a preventative measure for the people around her. This mindset not only questions the independence of women, but also creates a…

frames of snow Goggles and All terrain goggles, Food container’s insulation and gaskets etc. Material performs well to the qualitative requirement of troops and is equally good for hot summer in desert as well as in extreme cold up to -50oC in glacier regions. Certain properties of the…

responses to disasters and what their results came to be. Many times we try to create plans or have solutions that we think will work prior to a disaster happening. These are very important but I think what is even more important is a community or regions ability to respond to a natural disaster and the entities and policies that come about as a result of the disaster. Living in St. Louis, we are accustom to flooding. It…

Introduction Quantum dots (Q-Dots) is very small semiconductor particles that means it can be either conductors or resist electricity depending on the temperature and purity of the semiconductor. Q-dots range in size from 2-10 nm, so because of their small size, quantum mechanics governs the physics of the particles. The synthesis Q-Dots were first studied in 1982 by Efros and Ekimov, and then many developments have reported the synthesis of semiconductor nanoparticles.1 Q-Dots have unique…

individuals of regular workers and corporate CEO's. Distinctive models of cell phones speak to clients with different ways of life. For instance, Nokia N79 was advertised as a games telephone on account of a remote heart screen executed from Polar. The remote Polar Bluetooth WearLink heart rate belt assists screen a heart rate with a pace and separation while you are making the most of your run (Nokia,2015). Nokia Psycographic strategy for…

and leaves the cell, and also protects and supports the cell. Cell membranes are semipermeable, meaning it doesn’t allow all molecules to pass through it. For example, polar molecules and differently charged molecules are blocked from passing through the cell membrane, while smaller molecules can easily pass through it. Large polar molecules and ions can pass through the membrane only by passive or…

Early January, 2016, the Ocean Endevour crawls at a slow 2 knots pushing its way through heavy sea ice. Looking in every direction there is the same view; flat white ice, with dark jagged cracks of sea separating thousands of vast fragments. The sea ice floats around in level pieces ranging from 4 to 20 meters across. The ship meanders through it, parting the patches, trying to find an open area. After several hours of this, it is difficult to not think of early explorers like Shackleton and…
