Industrial development and population growth have created a surge in global demand for energy. The tension in the Middle East and the sharp rise in oil prices since the 1990’s had Western countries like the US scrambling to secure alternative energy sources. While solar and wind energy is flourishing, energy industries have pursued more aggressive means of tapping the earth’s resources. Continued mining, drilling, and especially hydraulic fracturing have been a “game changer” for the US. Although

Found across the Atlantic and above Africa is Spain with a growing population of 46.7 million. The country reigned supreme from the 16th to the 19th century with their predominant religion Christianity. Regardless of their fall from the top, their influence upon world politics still remains.

2014, employees from the largest electric company in the United States, Duke Energy, started noticing the spilling of coal ash into the Dan River near Eden, North Carolina. This location is said to have had its coal fired power production units terminated in the spring 2012 (Catawba Riverkeeper Foundation, 2014). The history behind the ash basin at the Dan River begins in 1948 when Duke Energy built a coal-fired power plant in Eden, NC (Rivin, 2015). In order to handle the coal ash, a bi-product of

drink. This fear is a result of anywhere between 50,000 and 82,000 tons of coal ash and up to twenty-seven million gallons of contaminated water being dumped into the Dan River in Eden, North Carolina on February 2, 2014. The spill was caused by a busted storm drain pipe that ran under an unlined coal ash pond at Duke Energy’s Dan River Combined Cycle Station (“Duke Energy’s Grievous”). Coal ash is a byproduct of burning coal for energy and contains substances such as arsenic, lead, and mercury. These

South Carolina’s commercial gold mining began in 1829, two years after the first discovery of gold in the area [1]. Mining continued with variations in productivity until World War II, when all gold mining was abandoned until renewed interest during the 1980s [1]. Figure 1., seen above, shows the amount of gold produced per year in troy ounces per year and the percentage of total US gold production [2]. Overall, gold production increases with time as newer mining techniques increase efficiency.

Welding Most of the dangers in welding are related to the wielder. Others are due to the environment that they have to go to. In welding, most people can do most all things people would want to do. The four main types of welding are Shielded Metal Arc Welding (The stick or SMAW), Metal Inert Gas welding (Mig or GMAW), Oxyfuel Gas Welding (Oxyfuel or OFW) and Tungsten Inert Gas welding (Tig). Welding is also a great career path because it pays well. The only drawback to it is that the wielder will
