Socio-Economic Implications of Drought in the Agricultural Sector and the State Economy by Jadwiga R. Ziolkowska This article is a case study of the 2011 Texas drought that specifically analyzes economic losses that drought can produce, and the effect that future droughts can have on the agricultural industry. The 2011 Texas drought was specifically caused by an extended period of hot, dry weather, which is identical to the circumstances of the Ontario case study I address in my paper. The main
Based on the provided case study, “Stakeholder Management and the Endangered Wildlife Trust”, written by Gavin Price, I will address the following three questions: 1. What are the main issues of the case? 2. What should the CEO do and why? 3. What lessons have you learnt and how could they be used? Looking at the history of the organisation, it has come a long way since 1979 in developing its brand, reputation and presence in the market. However, with a number of factors outside their
credibility through explaining his career and observations as a professor and scientist. However, many of his actual arguments are based off of assumptions and almost none on cold hard facts. One example is when he mentions the education system and its effect on how interested students are in science. How can this be proved? He assumes that all children’s schools must have been, “beating any interest in science out of everybody’s head,” when in fact the children might just have other interests. He goes

I will be sharing a couple of the ripple effect lessons I learned upon returning home. What I had learned made me question further some of the concepts I had pondered before...one of them being our need to be "productive." A large part of the reason why I was having trouble settling in and
argument on the thesis that any discoveries in science lead to a ripple effect, an ever-expanding circumference of knowledge that leads to more ignorance. He states that every discovery in science propagates even more questions. This is an idea that has been adopted by many people in the fields of science such as anthropologists who study subjects like evolution. In the book, Introducing Anthropology, by Michael Alan Park, the ripple effect is adapted into the idea of a continuous cycle. It states, “Science
At the beginning of everything there is nothing. Starting off with a blank page gives way to a plethora of ideas and opportunities. However, what is that one thing you can write about and think: wow. This is exactly how I felt when I first read the prompts for McMaster’s Health Science Supplementary Application, back in August. It has been four months since August when I began thinking of ideas. Why did it take me four months to finally sit down and write? The answer is simple: self-control. This

Unfortunately, my supervisor is not able to understand the best course of action because he is not mindful of his emotions or their effects. Hence, my supervisor’s emotions erupt frequently. Since he is unaware of what pushes his buttons, he is incapable of controlling his outburst. After his explosions, he dwells on it for a substantial amount of time and is not able to move on, thus
We came apart so easily, like an unraveled sheet, or a falling house of cards. The ripple effect of our tears showed us that we could no longer take the pain and anguish we had, later replacing it with deception and pleas for we did not want to start this war for all we wanted see to were our trees. However, little did we know we were still

Our goals for 2016 are primarily focused on increasing shareholder value.” As I watched many of my colleagues being escorted out of the building on a Wednesday morning in March 2016, my thoughts wandered back to those words spoken at our most recent employee forum from the previous month. Our CEO was on his annual tour of the country speaking to thousands of employees along the way. The message was
