Thorium

two elements in the poisoner’s corridor, cadmium and thallium, are potentially lethal to humans, as evidenced by both the itai itai cadmium poisoning epidemic, and CIA’s assassination plans using thallium. The last two elements in that corridor, thorium and americium, are radioactively poisonous.. Bismuth serves as a meeting point between these two types of killer elements. Yet, instead of being a chimera, and in more than one way harmful to humans, it is the opposite. This contrast between the…

1. INTRODUCTION The need for electrical energy and its global impact, ever since it’s being used is phenomenal. Hence, there is an immense pressure on all nation’s for ensuring electrical energy security. In this report, some key aspects of electrical energy statistics, both technical and economical are discussed and then compared between the United Kingdom** and Republic of India. 2. UNITED KINGDOM The United Kingdom is one among the large economies in the world and is also a “pioneer for…

All energy resources impact the environment, both in a negative and positive manner. Many of the environmental complications the world is fronting today is a result of Fossil fuel. Fossil fuel is currently the primary source of energy in the world. We as humans use fossil fuels in our everyday lives, these include transportation, habitation, electronics and industrial activities, but these resources have been maltreated hence it is said that we are the most polluting species on earth. Fossil…

Throughout the progression of human history, technological advancements have always been made at the expense of altering and harming the environment; so much so that one of the five types of conflict highlighted in literary writing is human vs. nature. One such story that addresses this conflict is Princess Mononoke by Japanese storyteller Hiyao Miyazaki. Although appearing to be a simple animated children’s tale of a boy thrown into a fight between spiritual beings and the human civilization…

Nuclear Energy From flipping a switch to see the other end of your room at night, to developing this very document, electricity is a necessity humans in our country may simply never live without. We’ve learned to adapt to a society that has only taught us how to utilize its purpose, but are rarely taught about the consequences caused by generating the electricity through coal mines, and that there are alternative options to save our planet. Nuclear energy is alternative energy source…

For years electricity has been a very important part of our everyday life. Just in 2013, around 3,831 billion kilowatt hours were consumed by the U.S alone ("Use of Electricity"). All of this energy is produced primarily by industrial and manufacturing facilities ("Use of Electricity"). With this, most of our electricity comes from coal ("Why Clean Energy”), and although a good amount of electricity comes from renewable sources, I believe it’s not enough. When these fossil fuels are burned,…

Would you really enjoy a dystopia in which nuclear leaks that cause animals to have mutations, And children born with defects, are frequent? How about an energy system that also provides an ineffective economy and more frequent terrorist attacks? Those could possibly be the results of a switch back to Nuclear energy. Nuclear energy is not a viable source of energy for the future, although it does produce massive amounts of energy capable of powering industrial and city needs. My arguments…

Current energy methods are destroying what we need to survive: the planet we live on and the air we breathe. Centuries of burning fossil fuels, mainly coal, oil, and other natural gases, has led to massive increases of a greenhouse gas called carbon dioxide. The number one reason that carbon dioxide is being released is for the generation of electricity through the burning of fossil fuels. In order to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, we need to change the source of our energy. An alternate form…

For example, a pressure group that tried to fight for the resist of slavery arise since 1787 onwards. In 1839, Anti-Corn Law Leagues was a successful political movement in Great Britain which influenced government. Antislavery and temperance organizations start to pioneer pressure group politics while the other inspiration for the early pressure group were religious mass organizations. Modern pressure groups always being critized that the presence of this group has corrupted the political system…

Uranium is a very heavy metal, which can be used as an abundant source of concentrated energy. The problem is that why do we think nuclear power is good? And why not use wood or coal or something other that nuclear power. Science has identified this issue when they monitored how much resources we use and we have to understand how we won’t run out of resources. This issue affects us because one day we will run out of resources such as coal gas or oil and it will lead to a difficult like which…
