Regulatory Interventions

Pollution is a major issue in many communities. It affects the local population and the number of people moving to the area, in addition to the potential workforce. If externalities result in an unsafe community, it will result in fewer residents and less economic growth. Government controls on pollution is very effective if patrolled. Many regulations are not monitored, thus companies often find ways to avoid the regulations. Government officials need to

The regulatory measures target the emissions from industries as well as the products resulting from certain industries. The agency establishes certain regulations that seek to standardize the emissions in terms of quantity and if companies are found

In this essay I am going to talk about the five stages of life and also demonstrate my knowledge and understanding of the theories of Erikson and Maslow. I am going to apply these theories to a member of the madga family from the case study.

Smog and air pollution have been impacting the lives of Americans since the industrial age during the nineteenth century, when necessity to use coal was critical for manufacturing in city factories. The United States government had little to no progress in enacting laws to developing better ways to target the air pollution. Smog in urban cities such as Los Angeles, Chicago, Philadelphia, and Cincinnati exceeded levels that proved to damage health of millions of people. For approximately sixty seven years local governments took it upon themselves to execute various laws to establish healthier living standards. From 1881 to 1947, five major cities in the United States proposed ideas to incentivize leaders to promote clean air to be a non negotiable aspect of everyday living.

The objective of the United States independent regulatory agency is to enforce any regulations of the political influence. The Federal Trade Commission’s goal is to enforce rules that involve businesses being unfair to its consumers and to ensure that business activity is legitimate. FTC serves as a law enforcement related agency protecting the consumers in terms of economy, fraud, and competition. This can relate to scams over the internet, in person, or telemarketing. Scams can be better known as mortgage scams, fake sweepstakes, fake product sales, etc. When they were first started, it was due to biased means of competition with businesses. As time went on, laws were passed which gave more authority to those involved in trying to eliminate

Improved air quality wasn’t a subject of national concern until the mid 1900s. After decades of coal burning, unregulated gas emissions from cars and the excessive burning of fossil fuels, people started noticing bad air quality as a hazard to their lives. Over several decades, after seeing the costly effects air pollution was having on the environment and people’s health, interest groups like the Friends of The Earth club and the influences of Theodore Roosevelt and Rachel Carson’s Silent Spring finally came together to persuade the government to enforce legislation that would reduce air pollution. Because of these efforts, the policies of the Clean Air Act of 1963 and the Motor Vehicle Pollution Control Act of 1965, that aimed to control air pollution and raise air quality standards, helped create the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) on December 2, 1970. Since then, the EPA has passed more air quality improvement acts, and amendments to previous acts passed, to increase restrictions on air pollutants, with their main policy concern being the Clean Air Act. Improved air quality acts imposed by the EPA have been successful in cleaning the United States’ air quality by reducing ground-level ozone pollution and reducing emissions, allowing for a decrease in pollution related deaths/illnesses and a better standard of living. The EPA, through regulations and the Clean Air Act, has delivered it’s promise to improve air quality in the United States.

The world of 2015 is centralized on industrialization, and advancements that improve the manner in which a product can be produced to turn the greatest profit. While many of these improvements in speed and quantity benefits society, we cannot turn a blind eye to some of the heavy costs that are associated with this type of mass production. To address some of the issues, like pollution, governments create laws to regulate the amount of negative externalities to its citizens. In the United States, there are multiple federal agencies charged with creating the specific standards and regulations that states and large companies must adhere to. One agency in particular, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), implements and enforces some of these standards “to protect human health and the environment”(US Environmental, 2015).

In this paper, I will be outlining the costs and benefits of social and technological fixes, and then I will be assessing the use of social and technological fixes of air pollution through the use of automobiles.

To protect public health and welfare nationwide from different types of air pollution, The Clean Air Act of 1990 introduced a novel way; tradable permits. In other words, factories had to buy their rights to emit sulfur dioxide and also allowed factories to purchase and trade these permits, or even investing in new technology. Now with cooperation by the factories and regulations set by the Clean Air Act, factories emit a minimal amount of sulfur dioxide. One of the major breakthroughs in the 1990 Clean Air Act is a permit program for larger sources that release pollutants into the air. A source can be a power plant factory or anything that releases pollutants into the air. Cars, trucks, and other motor vehicles are also sources, but sources that stay in one place are called stationary sources. Under the new program, permits are issued by the states or by the EPA when the state fails to carry out the Clean Air Act satisfactorily. The 1990 Clean Air significantly improved the power and accountability of the federal government. For control of acid deposition (acid rain) and for the

The Food and Drug Administration has proposed and created several regulations throughout the years. One of them is the regulation to establish a list of qualifying pathogens that may have the potential to propose or cause a great threat. According to the FDA, this proposed rule would implement a provision of the Generating Antibiotic Incentives Now of the FDA. This regulation would assist in reassuring the development of new antibacterial and antifungal drugs. Before the development of new drugs, the FDA must take into consideration the effect on public health due to drug- resistant organisms in humans. The purpose of this paper will be to discuss and highlight what this regulation truly means and the issues surrounding it.

Air pollution are impacting the environment, and it is imperative that laws are enforced to help build and sustain a better air quality. Air pollutants can be in the form of particulate matter which can be very harmful to our health. Stimulation to our eyes, nose, throat, and breathing infections such as bronchitis and pneumonia are all short-term effects. You’re head might hurt, you might want to puke, and you might have allergic reactions. Short-term air pollution can put people with asthma and emphysema in a worse condition. Long lasting breathing disease, lung cancer, heart disease, and even damage to your brains, nerves, livers, or kidneys are all long-term effects. If you’re exposed to air pollution continuously, it would affect children’s lungs and may complicate medical conditions for the elders. Some people argue and deny the bad air problem. They claim that pollution may actually be good for the Earth. The hazy weather caused by pollution has made plants far more productive when it comes to scrubbing greenhouse gasses out of the air. Pollution has turned plants into better carbon dioxide processing machines. But this is bad for our own health. Pollution is causing global warming which leads to massive ice land melting. Polar bears and other animals that live there are losing there habitats and even dying. Melting ice could also lead to more sea water which would bury some cities or land near the coastal areas. There is already a tremendous amount of people on this planet. If our land decreases, and our population continues to increase, some people would have to start living on another planet; therefore, making it a priority to address the areas

As George Lucas says “Power Corrupts, and when you’re in charge, you start doing things that you think are right, but they’re actually not”. It is right to assume snowball would have been just as ruthless as Napoleon when put in a state of power and leadership, as it states in the quote above when you’re in charge you do things wrong even if you think they are right. There are many different reasons why Snowball would have been just as ruthless a leader as Napoleon when put in a state of power these are, gaining access to luxuries not wanted to be shared with the other animals, Higher intelligence of the pigs making them natural leaders and even though all the animals were “equal” some species naturally gain power over others.

Interactive regulation is the process whereby at least two individuals co-manage and dynamically balance ANS arousal in real time. Just as self-regulation is more developmentally advanced than autoregulation, interactive regulation is more advanced than self-regulation. Developmentally speaking, interactive play by infants with their primary caregivers forms the foundation for mutuality and reciprocity. When interactive play does not take place, infants turn instead toward autoregulation as an adaptation to interpersonal neglect. They do so at great cost, remaining in exile from the interactive world as they grow older. Over time, reliance upon autoregulation consolidates into a one-person psychological system of

There are many medicines now that help control a variety of functions in the human body. With high blood pressure affecting many adults and children, there are many medications that can be given to control it. Captopril generic name for Capoten is an angiotensin I inhibitor. It is used to treat high blood pressure by relaxing the blood vessels.

Air, is one of the most substantial source to mankind and our planet. While it exists, so does everything else along. However, in today’s epidemic, there has been certain factors that have increased in understanding whether the air we breathe today is healthy or not? Is it doing more harm than we thought? In other words, the health risks against air pollution have risen in the past few decades; all from what you may ask? Well, it could be for various factors and evaluations; either environmental or materialistic. Pollution is a major public health crisis in the world. (Friis, 2012). This is one of the conflicts that contribute to various aspects of an individual’s life, whether they may realize it or not. In this paper will include the sources that cause pollution with the effects it cause as well as policies on the regulation of air pollution.
