Methane monooxygenase

Environmental Endurance Every year humans dump a massive 2.12 billion tons of waste, and there have been 1,636,129,847 (and counting) tons of waste dumped globally this year. In “The Earth Only” written by used-as-a-shield it also talks of mistreatment of the planet. However, the song “Mother Earth” speaks of building a strong connection of the planet. From both classic (older) and more contemporary (recent) point of views, a problem and solution are revealed through these pieces. Endurance becomes

How Much Did You Knew About Glass? The use of glass is very popular in home, there many styles and colors.. Every people has glasses in home because the cost is very low. I remember that my grandmother has many of them, my mom and aunts, and now I have glasses in home too. I never stopped to think “From where is my glass coming.” But today I did, and what I found is very interesting. The history say that the first glass was made in 3500 BC, in coastal north of Syria and with the time the glass has

Australia experiences wide range of weather throughout the year. The heaviest rainfall events have become heavier and more frequent, and the amount of rain falling on the heaviest rain days has also increased. Over the past decade we have seen a substantial increase in our scientific understanding of how climate change affects extreme rainfall events. Not only do climate models suggest that heavy rainfall events will intensify as the atmosphere warms but these projections have started to become reality

Most scientists agree that climate change is real. The real question today is how do we slow it down and prevent disastrous events resulting from climate change. In order to slow down global warming and improve the environment, we need to grow more plants, recycle more, and use less water. Plants can be very beneficial to the environment and in human life. Plants can absorb the carbon dioxin that human don't need, and through photosynthesis it convert into oxygen for human to use. Growing more plants

Stephane Dion (2007) published a summary of the liberal party’s proposal intended to decrease the carbon emissions in Canada. The liberal party suggested making the carbon emissions reduction not only a governmental concern but also the businesses need to get involved. This proposal recommended having a targeted goal so that all the businesses can be on the same page. The industries that would respect these new regulations and reduce their carbon emissions would be recognized and those that do not

Well folks I will be completely honest, I do not really know anything about climate change and I am not going to write a post pretending I do. I live in Oklahoma and if anyone knows Oklahoma weather let me just tell you it's bipolar. For example, a couple weeks ago I was at the lake getting burned and crisp only to spend that very next day wrapped up in a blanket next to our outdoor fire place. The weather completely shifted from hot to cold. (let me inform everyone that this change is very dangerous

water vapor and other chemicals in the presence of sunlight to form various acidic compounds in the air. Natural gas emits virtually no sulfur dioxide so it has almost no threat of acid rain. However, fracking wells release methane gas. This is a problem because if the methane gas isn’t burned of is is 25 times stronger greenhouse gas than carbon dioxide. Another pro and a con is cost. The process of hydraulic fracking is not cost efficient. This is part of the reason why natural gas is more expensive

Climate change is important because it affect everyone around the world. Scientist has said that during the twenty-century the average temperature has increased 0.6 Celsius. There are several warning that have been linked to people and the things we do to the environment like: factories, cutting down forest, driving cars and releasing toxic gases in the atmosphere. In the Artic glaciers are melting faster than the snow can freeze and restore them. All these things contribute to the warning signs

The societal norm that I selected is that human actions can and do shape the global climate. As well, that it is our environmental behaviors in the end that either reduce or contribute to global climate change today. The way that I expressed my norm was demonstrating how the environment in Arctic is supposed to look like vrs how it's going to like. The symbols that I used to demonstrate my idea was to find magazine pictures that showed global climate change. So, I have my background as the Arctic

Ana Serrano The article Plan B written by Lester R. Brown, informs the readers the great effect of pollution on the earth. Lester goes into great detail on how humanity is using earth’s resources faster than earth can replenish it. One of the big issues Brown highlights in the article is the lack of food resource the humanity could face. The increase of CO2 gas released into the environment has caused the earth to grow much warmer causing lands and water resources to dry out. Causing the earth’s
