Humus

Global Warming has always been an issue for our planet; climate has changed throughout the 4.5 billion years of Earth’s existence. In particular, the world was much warmer sixty-five million years ago during the Paleogene period in the Paleocene epoch. The average temperature was 10 degrees Celsius higher than it is today. The cause for this was a massive and geologically sudden release of carbon. Something much alike is happening today with all the massive amounts of fossil fuels that are being

Humanism asserts the centrality of human being and recognizes the dignity of man. This world-view seeks the uplift of human beings. The foremost intention of humanism is to attain human freedom, joyous life with progress and prosperity without any kind of discrimination among men. Dr. Bhupen Hazarika (1926-2011), an artist of multi-faceted talents and an epoch-making singer is the creator of a good number of significant songs.

Solid waste management Introduction to solid waste management Solid waste is the unwanted or useless solid materials generated from combined residential, industrial and commercial activities in a given area. It may be categorised according to its origin (domestic, industrial, commercial, construction or institutional); according to its contents (organic material, glass, metal, plastic paper etc); or according to hazard potential (toxic, non-toxin, flammable, radioactive, infectious etc). Management

The Myth of Fragmentation - The Composition and Publication History of Samuel T. Coleridge's Kubla Khan Although the exact date remains unknown, it is believed that Samuel Taylor Coleridge wrote his poem Kubla Khan sometime in the fall of 1797 and began revisions of it in the early spring of 1798. Interestingly, although no original manuscript has been found, the Crewe Manuscript of Kubla Khan was discovered in 1934. Currently, the Crewe Manuscript is the earliest know version of Kubla Khan and

How Oil Prices Affect the Price of Food By Post Carbon | Wed, 21 December 2011 18:07 The current global food system is highly fuel- and transport-dependent. Fuels will almost certainly become less affordable in the near and medium term, making the current, highly fuel-dependent agricultural production system less secure and food less affordable. It is therefore necessary to promote food self-sufficiency and reduce the need for fuel inputs to the food system at all levels.   The connection between

According to the Climate Change report from the National Academy of Sciences and the Royal Society, the Sun’s “variations have played very little role in the climate changes observed in recent decades” (Society & Academy, n.d.). Moreover, data provided by the report shows that even during periods of low solar activity, the Earth’s average surface temperature has still increased. These findings discredit the argument put forth by John L. Casey. No evidence has shown that the Sun has had a substantial

many approaches could be explored, which in any case would depend on specific geographic locations, the necessary outlines of a general transition strategy are already clear.    • Farmers should move towards regenerative fertility systems that build humus and sequester carbon in soils, thus contributing to solving climate change rather than exacerbating it. • Farmers should reduce their use of pesticides in favour of integrated pest management systems that rely primarily on biological, cultural and
