care of, will lead us to an era of burning heat, toxic air, and tremendous amount of deaths followed by the possible extinction of all beings on Earth. The United States, in particular, is greatly responsible for this, where more than “160 million tons of solid wastes are produced annually” which is about “more than 3 pounds per person each day” (“Recycling: A Major Solution For a Major Problem”). To solve this problem, we need a drastic change in our wasteful lifestyle and even a small town in…

The radiation is present from the origin of the universe, about 20 billion years ago, since intervened in the Big Bang: Big Bang. So that the radioactivity existed on our planet long before the appearance of life on it, every living organism contains traces of radioactive substances. But less than a century that mankind discovered this phenomenon by scientists like Henri Becquerel, Wilhelm Roentgen and Marie and Pierre Curie and others. In 1945 we can say that tragically began the "Nuclear Age"…

“Nature does nothing by a jump, it is said. But to the British people living at the time, it seemed as if the world they knew had vanished almost overnight,” David Newsome writes of the Victorian Era (Swisher). From the spinning jenny to the steam engine, many products were created to provide a better life and pave the way for social adjustment. During the Victorian Era, industry and innovation ignited the country and influenced the future of steam, power and social change. Before the Victorian…

Average Roughness (Rz) Using TOPSIS The present work is to explore the effect of EDM process parameters on the surface roughness characteristics Ra, Rq and Rz. For the experimentation, twenty seven alternatives of EDM process parameters, Pulse on time (TON), Pulse off time (TOFF), Wire Tension (WT) and Wire Feed (WF) were considered as per the Taguchi’s standard L27 Orthogonal Array. The Roughness characteristics of Arithmetic average (Ra), Geometric average (or) RMS value (Rq) and Ten point…

2.2 Major Challenges Over the Next Five Years (i) Emerging of Strong Competitors A new company, Jacobs Douwe Egberts, is formed as a result of the combination of D.E. Master Blenders and Mondelēz International which originally named Kraft Foods Inc. (Boyle, 2014) Based on data prepared by Bloomberg, it is the largest in an industry that has rapidly consolidated over the past five years, with higher than one hundred deals worth about $23 billion. (Boyle, 2014) Euromonitor showed that the…

plastic? No chance. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration estimates that to clean less than 1 percent of the North Pacific it would take 68 ships, working 10-hour days, a whole year. A skimming operation of that scope would also suck up tons of marine creatures. And with global plastic production doubling every 10 years, "there's no way to keep up," says Chris Wilcox of Australia's national science agency. "It would be as if you were vacuuming your living room, and I'm standing at…

A power plant annually generates 20 metric tons of high-level radioactive waste, every nuclear plant combined annually produces 2,000 metric tons. As stated by the Greenpeace Organization the only way to safely dispose of radioactive waste is for the Nuclear Energy to be isolated for over 1,000 years. As proven by leaders, law and curriculum it…

Environment is the totality of all social, biological and physical factors individually as well as collectively that compose the nature and man-made surroundings. Man is a part of environmental system. The environment consists of four components atmosphere, hydrosphere, lithosphere and biosphere. The temperature variation in these components is the basis of heat budget of the earth. While the elements (Carbon, Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Oxygen etc.) and compounds that sustain us cycle endlessly…

and human health hazards. A brief review in numbers shows that scrapped ships have an unlabeled weight of between 5,000 and 40,000 tons, 95% of which is steel, coated with between 10 and 100 tons of paint containing lead, cadmium, organotins, arsenic, zinc and chromium. Ships also contain a wide range of other hazardous wastes, sealants containing PCBs, up to 7.5 tons of various types of asbestos and; several thousand liters of oil. Tankers additionally hold up to 1,000 cubic meters of residual…

of jeans and other apparel. They are a huge retail company and wouldn’t of gotten their start with a bit of hope for the future and entrepreneurial startup. Even the smallest of things in California worked out for people with big dreams. People made tons of money living in San Francisco, Oakland, Sacramento and other cities in the Bay Area. The downside to the gold rush and money, is that prices soared. A simple breakfast costed as much as you had made on the day.…
