“Part of it is living in Tennessee. I'm so out of the loop. And as a person, I'm out of the loop. I'm oblivious by nature”, said Ann Patchett. This dilemma is faced by many in the book Fahrenheit 451. This book, written by Ray Bradbury in 1953 depicts a disturbing future backed by a culture of obliviousness and the principle ‘ignorance is bliss’. In this society the public servant known today as a Fireman has the exact opposite purpose he does now-- to start fires and burn books. Montag is a…

Since the oil floats, animals like seabird and sea otters are commonly affected and are often found on the shorelines when the oil comes ashore. Other animals, such as snails and clams, also get harmed if the oil stays on the beach for too long. Animals are dying or getting harmed, according to response.restoration.noaa.gov, when they could still live if the oil was cared better for. Oil spills not only affect…

"Goodbye mom, " I said as I started walking towards the airport security so they could secure my stuff. I knew I wasn't going to see them for a whole summer but I would get to see my relatives.

I replied back as I went farther into the airport security."Bye, I love you," said my mom as I left and went to the airport security with my sister. My sister is pretty cool, she is awesome.

The next morning Marisol showed up with dark smudges under her eyes and sort of listless. On her back was a small, floral backpack, with the tiny lizard gargoyle perched on it. Everything about the gargoyle was distinctly female—the rounded face, the dark lining around her almond shaped eyes, the dainty nose, the long, elegant tapering tale and the delicate point to her ears. Even the fine lines of her skin were more flowing and organic rather than scaly. “Jamie, Hawking,” Marisol said once…

The primary causes for ocean acidification include carbon dioxide pollution, an effect caused by burning fossil fuels such as coal, oil, and gas. The carbon dioxide accumulates quickly, entering the ocean and increasing ocean acidity, so fast that the organisms cannot adapt quickly enough. It is most problematic in cold water regions and places where deep water wells up to the surface, as not only would co2 rates rise faster, it is also the location for many fisheries. Coral reefs are also at…

As I eavesdropped on my mother pacing back and forth in our kitchen on that hot summer day in 1993, I anxiously contemplated what her conversation was regarding. The expression on her face appeared serious and cautious; this phone call was not like her other daily phone calls. She wasn’t rehashing how great Charles Barkley’s calves looked in the Suns game, or venting about her experience with a patient at her work. I knew this phone call meant that somehow our lives were about to change. At last…
