Ocean City Visual Pollution

I'm in the ocean every day, it’s my second home. Because of this, I am very sensitive to literary and other pollution that ends up in our oceans. I can't walk down the beach today without seeing a pile of trash. Because of this curiosity, I wanted to research what another type of litter fill our local ocean. Our ocean is filthy, Plastics and fibers make their way into the sea naturally every day. Apart from the rest of the trash, some of these plastics and fibers are microscopic, coining the term microfibers or microplastics. This problem is getting worse. Much like global warming in the past, this problem is not clearly obvious. As a society, we have made numerous efforts to begin to clean up our oceans and beaches, but our tiny particle problem still goes undetected, unevaluated, and unresolved for most of the world's population. So we will probably ask how are they getting there?

Air pollution is generally any substance that people introduce into the atmosphere that has damaging effects on living things and the environment.(www.nationalgeographic.com/environment/global-warming/pollution/) There are many causes, effects and many reasons like the environment, public health, and any other reasons. Air pollution is harmful for our present and future lives and should be avoided at all costs.

The oil spills are being caused by the one who spill it should be responsible and the only one who makes oil is companies are the ones who makes oil so they should pay for the damage beside the earth is already been damaged by us so I think people should help the earth beside humans are the ones who needs earth.The companies who spill oil into oceans should pay for clean up. The earth is being damage already and humans are the ones who need the earth not the earth needs the humans because of the gravity and the professor says that if you dump anything down the toilet then it will go to the oceans by the sewage and the sewers has bad toxic waste in it. The companies who spill oil into oceans should pay for clean up. have three reasons why

The oceans need to be protected because it is where life began and if not taken care of, life as we know it will end. The well-being of the ocean is constantly being threatened and needs to stop. When dangerous substances go into the ocean, ecosystems suffer and become endangered along with the lives of people and marine life. The importance of protecting and preserving the quality and biodiversity of the world 's coasts must be recognized because they are truly irreplaceable. If humans are not educated , and become careless about what is thrown on the ground or sprayed on lawns, disastrous effects follow when it comes to the condition of the ocean’s ecosystems, which can endanger life itself, leading to a problem only we can correct. There is historical evidence of ocean pollution, although the problem still shadows us today.

Ocean pollution is such a broad topic, and one that has many facets to it. As a group, we found it to be a very intriguing topic that it relevant to our everyday lives. As New Jersey residents, we have all spent time at the Jersey shore. We have all enjoyed the small and big beach towns, the sand, and of course

Do you know what is in the air we are breathing every day of our lives? The water we drink? What causes us to feel different about the environment we call home? Many different cities, states and countries have different forms of pollution but here in Las Vegas, Nevada, we have almost all of the possible forms of pollution the environment could possibly have. Two of the seven types of pollution that Las Vegas has are land pollution and air pollution. None of these are good for neither our environment’s health nor our own health. Different examples of these types of pollution in Las Vegas are driving a car, smoking cigarettes and all of the construction that has been happening within the past year.

Los Angeles County ranks among the 10% worst air quality polluters in the US. The hustle and bustle of public transportation and smog released by an over-populated commuter based region, have significantly lowered air quality standards. Henceforth, health concerns have risen for all Angelinos. Research has observed that there is a serious influx of pollutants in the air that could have damaging results both on adults and children alike. However, different forms of renewable energy over the years have facilitated an alternative to this issue. A movement away from an urban sprawl Los Angeles to new urbanism has allotted us better living and breathing conditions over the last several years.

This article, “Oceans of Pollution” is written by Dahr Jamail. He presents this article with many details to support his argument. Two main topics with support are used, which is how plastic is causing a great pollution affecting the fertility rates of the fish because fish can ingest tiny sizes of plastic therefore harming the creatures. As well, another topic in this article is the dead zone affecting the ocean, caused by natural environment, climate changing the temperature and human factors. This article mainly presents this article to the government to suggest for change and to humans, many who are biologists, who care about this huge problem. With the intensity of the ocean’s pollution, the article uses three rhetorical topics, pathos,

There are pollutants that effect our environment from many different sources from industry to everyday people in New Jersey these toxins show up in three ways air, water, and ground. New Jersey residents share in protecting our air, the toxins in our air over time can have an adverse effect on our overall health. The most immediate impact from pollution comes by way of our water supply the cornerstone of life itself New Jersey has made great strides to our water since the 1970’s when we started to understand the grave mistakes made by our lack of oversight when it came to our water. Not to be ignored is ground pollution which many industries have ignored by simply burying the problem it interns goes away not considering the life cycle that surrounds us every day. Pollution in New Jersey has been our calling card since I was a kid toxic fumes from our ports let you know you have entered an

I am writing in regards to the pollution in the city of Portland, the reason why I am deeply concerned with the issue is that a study found that in four to six years Portland will be like many other major cities with a reputation of horrible pollution that puts its people at risk, and quite honestly that really shocks me and get’s me thinking do we as a society do enough to eliminate harmful toxins that are being released and most importantly why are we putting our life in stake when their are smart individuals who are capable of tackling these particular types of issues. These issues might create a long time side effect which may translate into new disease and problems.What really affect people is the contaminated air being released

When it comes to this region and tourism, tourism has been a big economic boost, especially in Ocean City. With the number of businesses that keep coming in and growing, the tourism traffic has spread to West Ocean City. The city “is a driving force in Maryland’s tourism industry” (McSwingan Mdbiznews.commerce.maryland.gov). Worcester County, where Ocean City is located at, holds the largest tourism segment. In 2011, $36 million was made from the county, going a few years forward and pushing the state’s overall tourism economy in 2013 to $15.4 billion as well as produce more jobs. It is predicted to go higher and higher by 2020, having an increase of more tourists to come visit the region.

Ocean pollution is one of the most urgent issues in our world today. The ocean is crucial to our ecosystem and it is being severely damaged at an alarmingly increasing rate. In this paper I will educate about the role the ocean plays in our beautiful Earth, why it is being so widely ignored and dismissed, the causes of pollution, and its effects on animals and humans alike.

oceans, and coastal areas. I chose to focus on the body of water that I live nearest to and have the most previous knowledge about, the Chesapeake Bay. In recent years, studies have confirmed that the bay is susceptible to pollution by quite a few sources. A finger cannot really be placed on one single cause of pollution in the Chesapeake Bay. Many believe that farmers making use of too many nitrogen based fertilizers is the cause. However others seem to think that it is a choice that each of us as natives to this beautiful, yet damaged water system, to become more educated on precautions that each one of us as individuals can take in order to make an impact on the well being of the bay.

On the early morning of January 17, 1994, the Northridge earthquake shook southern California, bringing the city of Los Angeles and surrounding areas into a total blackout. Amongst the devastation, residents reportedly called 911 expressing alarm to what appeared to be a giant silvery cloud hovering above them. In reality, the ominous cloud that arched over the city was the Milky Way— a familiar but beautiful sight to all but the last few generations of humanity. Since antiquity, man has gazed up into the heavens, with awe and wonder, contemplating his place in it all. The ancients admired the night sky and passed the stories of the stars from each generation to the next. Starry nights inspired science, philosophy, religion, and art: from ancient Greek astronomy, to the Mayan Calendar, to some of Shakespeare's greatest sonnets, and Van Gogh’s eminent “Starry Night.” In modern times, the awe, inspiration, and connection with mankind a sky peppered with stars can offer have been lost in light to be forgotten. Light pollution is a preventable by-product of artificial lighting that arises from the majority of outdoor lights, which are poorly directed or excessively bright due to the inconspicuous flaws in their design. Ideally, lights should direct all of their light down, where it is needed, but typically shine one-third of it upward, where it is wasted and pollutes the nighttime environment. As a result, massive amounts of electricity are wasted and the health of

Over the past few months, there has been a growing concern over the worsening of traffic congestion particularly in Manhattan. The speed of traffic in Midtown has declined by 23% since 2010. This traffic gridlock will cost the City over millions of dollars in wasted fuel, wasted time and carbon emissions. This past summer, Mayor Bill de Blasio has proposed a millionaire tax to fund infrastructure improvements on the subway. Later in October 2017, he laid out a Five-Point Plan to reduce traffic congestion. Working closely with Con Edison, the Mayor has also set the goal for 20% of all city vehicles to be electric by 2025. In addition to these initiatives, Governor Andrew Cuomo has appointed a panel to study congestion pricing and report back to him by the end of the year.
