    Background: Before January 2008, industrial accidents were the main cause of Hydrogen Sulfide poisonings in Japan. Since then, the use of this gas in chemical or “detergent” suicides increased exponentially, over 2,000 such suicides have been reported in Japan. This trend was next encountered by first responders in America, with 3 cases reported in 2008, 9 in 2009 and over 30 incidents in 2010 (Morii et al., 2010). The new trend was shared via internet message boards. Dependant of the mixture of

    In the deep sea resides black smokers, which are hydrothermal vents. Black smokers form from tectonic plates meeting and this creates a mineral laden fluid, iron sulfide, hence the “black smoke”. This water permeates through the earth’s crust, boils, and dissolves rock, reacting and creating bubbling, nutritious water. Only few organisms can live in the cold, deep, and empty environment where these Black smokers exists. These microbes are called extremophiles and rely on chemosynthesis, a process

    A common theory in the oil industry is that the “easy oil” is gone. As known reserves become depleted and production declines, both national oil companies & international oil companies (NOCs and IOCs) are forced to look for oil and gas deposits in more challenging geographical and environmental areas. Andrew George, the chairman of Marsh, an energy risk management company, stated that, “It is fair to say easy oil has gone, and oil and gas are now found in tricky areas. The risk of extraction, or

    1.0 Introduction The global economy is ever expanding. With this, the amount of energy required to aid the expansion is always increasing. Currently, majority of the energy produced is from combusting coal, oil and gas. Researches are looking in to diverse methods of harvesting energy to reduce the stress on oil and gas as existing wells of these natural resources, especially oil are emptying fast. New sources found for oil deposit are mostly very deep underground and difficult to be extracted. For

    Humans maintain the park and influence mandatory controlled fires as well as control the wildfires. Wildfires are required to burn in order to keep the ecosystem in check. In Banff National Park, these fires burn in old growth areas. Once the fire is burned out it leaves nutrients in the soil to aid in regrowth for future plants. After the fire Grizzly Bears rummage through the now loose and nutrient rich soil for certain roots that are apart of their diets. These roots are only accessible to the
