Water scarcity has gained a lot of popularity lately due to California’s drought issues. I have known of this water deprivation but never knew it could become a reality. My family lives with a moderate concern for water because of this. We try to preserve water with methods such as taking short showers, using less water when doing chores, turn off the water when brushing our teeth, etc. I care about California’s drought and try to help as much as possible in order to raise awareness of the tragedy

Monwa Floating off the beautiful coast of Haiti, Monwa is truly a diamond in the rough.

Now, in the year of 2254 with a growing population of approximately 50,000, Monwa is the City of the Future. Bel Air, Haiti was devastated by the earthquake of 2010. The magnitude 7.0 earthquake killed up to 316,000 civilians. Haiti was no more, but several

Hon Lam Ng Pui Sze Cheung General Education 1000 15 December 2014 Environmental Science and Ethic Perspective on Aquaculture 1. Introduction 1.1. Aims Aquaponic system is the combination of plant growth with raising fish to more efficiently use water and provide the plants with nutrients while cleaning the water for the fish. There are three perspectives to considering whether to invest and consume the aquaponic products, including the environmental science, ethical and sociology. In the environmental

Would you leave everything and everyone you know for a once in a lifetime opportunity? Would you go to Mars to start a new life, help a new society began? You would never be able to go home to your family and friends. Before you decide please read the information down below. Some facts about Mars and about the trip to Mars are, Mars has a diameter of 4220 miles or 6792 kilometers, which is half the size of earth or twice the size of earth's moon. The density of Mars is 3.9 g/cm3 which is about 71%

A Master grower is someone who oversees a large scale growing operation of their own, or manages the operation for a company. To be a lead/master marijuana grower, as stated by Matthew Harrington: Executive Search Consultant for SBHIR consulting’s job post on 420careers.com, you must be able to complete all responsibilities in the grow operation. These responsibilities may include the everyday duties of cloning, transplanting, feeding plants, defoliation, super cropping, topping, flushing, trimming

allowing them to control the size, shape, texture, color, flavor, and nutrition of every plant. As well as the aeroponic mist giving the plants their needed water, oxygen, and nutrients. This system allows them to use 95% less water and 40% less hydroponics. Because of these factors AeroFarms are more productive in their food output, with 390 times more productivity per square foot than a commercial farm. This system works so well because the plants are being constantly monitored by computers, which

Revitalizing our neighborhoods is as important as getting people into homes. Broken neighborhoods with streets in need of repair, limited access to shopping areas, few job opportunities, and despair seeping around every corner is not good for either individuals or communities. I plan on using the Year of Giving as part of the plan to combat this. Our nation's youth will go into these areas and clean them up, plant gardens, and help support new services that I hope to bring to each of these areas

aquaponics dates back to the 1970’s, yet its practice dates back to the time of the Mayan and Aztec civilizations where they grew plants atop rafts on the surface of lakes. Aquaponics is the result of the integration of Aquaculture (fish farming), Hydroponics, (the soilless culture of plants), and the addition of beneficial bacteria into a single eco-system. The fish, usually Tilapia or Catfish are kept in large tanks and fed a protein- rich fish food. The resulting fish waste is pumped into a tank where

Can Farming Be the Salvation That Civilization Is Looking For Farming has been around as far back as anyone can remember. Civilization began with farming. About 10,000 years ago, we began to domesticate plants and animals as a way to make our food supply more accessible and predictable. In many ways, the beginning of farming can be defined as the moment we stopped chasing our food and started growing it. As humans advanced the way they farmed, agriculture has reshaped human civilization. For the
