time, and the installation of a carbon filter system at the other. Since 1982 those connected to the public water supply system were not exposed since a treatment system was already in operation. For those with water wells, exposure was halted when point of Beneduce-Harris 4 entry systems of filtration were installed. Sadly, the estimated population that was served from contaminated water wells was 10,000 to 100,000 (before intervention). Legally created in 1989 the Potcong Valley Superfund…

nitrogen especially from automobile exhaust” (Dictionary, 2016). Because of our atmospheric pollution, when smog is present and it begins to rain, the rain traps the chemicals and brings them down to the earth’s water…

The innocence of a child is something nothing can compare to, we would never think to harm them or put them in danger. They are fragile, they have no defense other than a parents protection and love. But what if the resources they needed to survive slowly started disappearing and thing things that brought us joy were taken away from them because of the people that said they would never hurt them. Can we apologize in advance for something we turned away from because we felt it wasn 't our problem…

Many people know of the idea of Carbon footprints, but do not think of the wider concept of ecological footprints. This measures not only carbon emissions but includes energy use, water use, and waste production of a person, or population. This is measured against the ability of the environment to supply these needs, many times leading to a deficit (Global Footprint Network, 2015). The world population uses 1.6 times the resources available of the planet (Global Footprint Network, 2015) and with…

used because it is a hydrocarbon, meaning it is mostly insoluble in water and satisfies the requirements discussed.…

Global warming is arguably the largest threat facing humanity today, since 1880 the world 's average temperature has gone up by 0.8 degrees Celsius, and already the effects can be seen with an increase global of cyclones, forest fires, drought and floods. Within the United Kingdom, an increase of 1 degree has occurred since the 1970’s, (Naomi Hicks et al 2013). with this increase in average temperature, the main impact predicted to affect the UK is an increase in the amount of rain in the winter…

The Catchment Land Use for Environmental Sustainability model (CLUES), designed by the National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research Ltd (NIWA), provided the data for both the Nitrogen and the Phosphorus concentrations throughout New Zealand. The development of CLUES was through a consolidation of existing mapping procedures and modelling(EnviroLink, 2012), and contributed to by various research organisations (NIWA, 2016). From this collaboration, the models responsible for the Nitrogen…

strategies used to inactivate these enzymes. Vegetables are blanched before freezing and fruit can be dipped in a sugar syrup before freezing to keep them at their best. One of the main problems faced with freezing is a change in texture. When frozen water expands and can cause tissue damage. When the food is thawed it will be mushy and soft because of the tissue damage. When frozen slowly larger crystals will appear and cause more tissue damage. When frozen quickly the ice…

Erosion impact water coastal quality, ocean acidification, and can cause negative impact to reefs. Erosion is as a result occurring when waves take away more sand than they replenish. The impact of water coastal quality is bad because we don’t want to swim in beach waters that are dirty. This will affect not only the attractiveness of Hawaii beaches it will also affect our tourist attraction…

told us before he yelled, “Time to get into the pool for a 400 warm-up!” We had no idea how many laps were in a 400 or how to properly swim, but we slapped on our caps and goggles anyway. Amy jumped into the pool first causing a huge wave of cold water to slam against my body. “Are you getting in?” Amy asked, so I took the…
