Similar to Al Gore’s An Inconvenient Truth, Cowspiracy discusses some of the major issues that are not noticed by the general public. By definition, Global Warming is the effect of too much greenhouse gasses inside the Earth’s atmosphere. It has been widely accepted that the causes of global warming include factories, chlorofluorocarbons, and other toxic chemicals from harmful human activities. According to the documentary Cowspiracy, the number one contributor to climate change is actually the…

CLIMATE CHANGE HUMAN CAUSED or NOT Introduction The continuous climate change controversy debated among scientists and professionals could indicate no one really knows beyond theory. There is the side indicating humans continue to cause climate change through actions of pollution and more. There is another side suggesting that the nature and cycle of earth is reason for climate change to happen. The thought of anyone really having the true answer renders all subject to a continued climate…

ensure this vehicle is widely applicable to the entire society. One of the benefits of owning an electrical vehicle, is no emissions are produces as the vehicle is powered and operated through electrical energy only. This means it requires no sort of fossil-fuels or biofuels, required to actively operate this vehicle. This is essential in current society, as the global warming due to excess production of greenhouse gases, is impacting the entire globe. Through the introduction of green vehicles…

Introduction It was my Junior year of high school, in both my AP Seminar and French classes we had been discussing air quality issues in Salt Lake City, Utah. However, as most students became annoyed at the constant discussion of these issues I became inclined to gain extensive knowledge pertaining to the ongoing air quality issues that were constantly affecting me. I became interested in this topic and the idea that maybe somehow I could make a difference. The air quality in Utah is extremely…

Industry: Natural gas is crucial to the world’s energy supply. It is combusted in order to generate electricity, and when compared to other fossil fuels, it is quite clean, safe and has many end uses.1 For example, natural gas can be used to create electricity, power air conditioners, fuel vehicles, heat water, cook foods, heat buildings and also power large furnaces.2 Natural gas is fairly abundant in North America, yet it is still a nonrenewable resource which takes millions of years to form.…

Energy Crisis in the 70’s Throughout the 1970’s, the United States of America had some trouble maintaining the amount of resources they previously had. The shortages of these resources stirred up arguments in America. In 1979, President Jimmy Carter spoke about all of these issues in the country. Conflicts in the United States of America included claims that the president didn’t actually care, parts of the energy crisis, and how the government was said to be ineffective during all of this. But,…

In the Schramski’s article, the analogy of an “Earth-space battery” was used to explain the future of energy for the planet Earth in relation to mankind. This was used to explain how millions of years ago the production of biomass was created and gradually “charged” this battery. Due to recent circumstances, the battery is being drained at a rate much greater than being charged. In other words, the consumption of energy by mankind has increased drastically as a result of the need to develop…

Nikola Tesla, the man who made our world possible. There are many rumors about whether or not tesla actually created a device that creates Free/Alternative Energy. Nikola Tesla did not create a Free/Alternative energy source because, physics would not allow it, also there is no physical evidence to prove this energy source, and most websites that claim he did are not credible. First, I need to clarify what I mean when I say Free/Alternative energy. Free energy is the creation of energy…

To say that the United States is too dependent on it’s fossil fuels is a massive understatement. It is often difficult to picture our lives without fossil fuels, because around 90% of the world’s electricity demand comes from the use of them (IER 2005). With this being said, if we want to provide the generations long after we are gone with sustainable, renewable, and environmentally appropriate (clean) energy, we certainly have to make big changes. These changes have already started but are…
