Geothermal energy is one of the most recommended sources of renewable energy for electricity. It is more useful especially in areas where there is a lot of volcanic activity. Since geothermal energy is extracted from deep within the earth’s surface, it is safe, clean, reliable, and environment friendly. However, despite all these advantages, this type of energy suffers from its disadvantages as explained below. Disadvantages of geothermal energy Location It’s not easy to find the most…

The Earth has come under constant attack in recent history due to the actions of humans. The overuse of fossil fuels, plastics, and effect on climate change has sent the world into a spiral of issues. These issues have only escalated over time, causing Pope Francis to address them. He does so in Laudato Si’, which brought major expectations with it being the first encyclical being mainly about the environment. In Pope Francis’s encyclical, he points out the importance of the environmental issues…

INTRODUCTION Lead is a bluish grey metal ,which is one of the useful and common metal that has been used by humans for over 6000 years1 it has high density ,ductility, poor electrical conductivity and more over which is soft and highly malleable in nature. these all properties were helping the early extraction and working with lead and makes it more popular among industrial and other mankind usages all over the world . Several millions of lead are consumed by world for the production of…

CNG Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) is a fuel obtained by compressing a natural gas to less than its 1 per cent volume at standard atmospheric pressure volume or 3600PSIA. It is use as an alternative automotive fuel with compressed natural conversion kit or compressed natural gas engine. PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF COMPRESSED NATURAL GAS 1. It is colourless and odourless. 2. It is clean and has a clean burning. 3. It has low carbon monoxide emission. 4. It has no particulate matter emission. 5. For…

What Are the Advantages and Disadvantages of Fossil Fuels? Man’s needs for fuel, since the old times, have been met through fossil fuels, which are extracted from the organic remains of prehistoric animals and plants. Comprising mainly of coal, oil and gas, they are used for most of the world’s electric power and other energy demands, but are foreseen to be in short supply in the future, as our fuel needs continue to grow at a fast rate. The use of fossil fuels is one of the most popular…

Respiration (Growth vs Maintenance Respiration) Plant respiration is the metabolic link between gross primary productivity and net primary productivity. It is also a large component of a plant's carbon budget; perhaps typically 50-70% of carbon assimilated in gross primary productivity is released back to the atmosphere as CO2 during subsequent plant respiration (Amthor and Baldocchi, 2001). Growth is the conversion of temporary pools of substrates such as carbohydrates and amides into new…

1. What is your understanding of the concept of climate change and the urban heat island effect? My understanding of the concept of climate change and the urban heat island effect is that they are both becoming more progressively harmful to our human health, the air we breathe, and water supply in our communities. Carbon dioxide (CO2) emitted from auto and factory emissions acts as a blanket, trapping long-wave infrared energy coming off the earth making our planet much warmer. Most radiation is…
