to nuclear waste involve salt domes and new technology of nuclear power. The best option for storage of nuclear waste is to store it in salt domes. Salt is the “ultimate geologic medium for retention of radioactive material” this allows for the entrapment of the radiation and heat emitted from nuclear waste (Funderburk). Salt domes are also geologically stable for 50 to 100 million years which assures prevention of degradation of the storage facilities (Funderburk). Salt domes are also very…

Discussion: In sample, B there was 16% salt, which is unnaturally higher than the global average of 3.5%. When I asked about the reason of this, I found that the water was artificially created. This was also the case of Sample, A which had 9% of salt. That is about 3x the amount of salt from the global average. All though this is not an experiment with data, that we can apply to real life, it was still great fun to do the experiment and the lessons I learnt will stick with me for a long time.…

be positively correlated. The greatest salt marsh erosion sites and the threshold for marsh resilience were forecasted to occur at the highest (90-100%) stem oiling level. The results of this study added to the rare amount of empirical data that has been recorded showing a link between geomorphologic thresholds and specific levels of large-scale human disturbances such as oceanic oil spills. Oil was found on…

In the beginning of the 1930’s, a major issue in Great Britain were the Salt Acts, which prohibited Indians from collecting or selling salt. Gandhi proposed a Salt March in response to these Salt Acts. This Salt March, starting on March 12, 1930, was one of the best known revolts performed by Gandhi.

This also placed a moderately large tax on the purchase of salt sold by the British. While a seemingly insignificant law, the origins of a more cohesive Indian unified front unfolded with the occurrence of Gandhi’s mass civil disobedience…

April, 1930. The coastline in Dandi, India is dotted with millions of people illegally extracting their own salt from the water, each feeling a mixture of triumph and fear. They have come together to protest the British salt laws, which they believe are wrong. But it is also understood that in doing so, many will face consequences. Civil disobedience is vital to bringing a positive change to society, under the circumstances of tyranny and/or discrimination. However, fear is induced by the danger…
