    Investigate how geophysicist M. King Hubbert predicted in 1956 that annual U.S. oil production would peak in the early 1970s (the actual peak occurred in 1971). Also, investigate the debate over whether the same predictive technique can be applied to world oil supplies. When do you think world oil production will reach its peak—or has it done so already?…

    Lost Angels: Skid Row Is My Home is an investigative documentary that gives us the untold story of the homeless and disadvantaged living on Skid Row. Skid Row is a name given to fifty blocks radius in Downtown Los Angeles whose residents tends to have a lower income or are homeless. Many people view the homeless as being dirty, poor and even lazy; it is very rare that we wonder why how they came to be in such a predicament. For many on Skid Row their battles are mental illness and grave poverty. The documentary introduces us to eight different but very similar individuals living on Skid Row; they tell us their very different stories and then explain their similar experiences living on Skid Row. We meet a transgender Caucasian male, an African- American mother of three, an old Caucasian female and her African American “fiancé”, they all suffer from mental illness in one form or the other and there is even an ex Olympian who battled through substance abuse. The only difference between these people and us are certain circumstances and situations. The film just sheds light and gives understanding to the fact that yes they are homeless, yes they lie in the street but they are people just like me and you. Watching this film had me literally questioning why we are socialized to believe being homeless is demeaning and a social taboo.…

    Throughout the course of American history, the late 1700s and early 1800s were the main eras when the abolition of slavery was most rooted for. After the Haitian Revolution, in which the former state of Saint Domingue freed itself from the rule of the French colony, abolitionists around the world began to rise up and form organizations and societies to grant freedom to slaves. Although it was an informal and gradual process, anti-slavery movements were successful through votes in Congress, consistent petitions, passed laws, and published literature. Most interestingly, both whites and blacks were involved in the abolitionist movements, and believed that the use of slaves was destroying the unity of the nation. One of the earliest and most notable…

    In the world we live in, the human population is dependent upon a seemingly endless list of objects and resources. The list consists of certain necessities that have been required since the dawn of man, including food, water, shelter, but the list is always increasing. In the past couple centuries it seems as if the list has increased at an exponential rate, adding staggering degrees of technology, sources of communication, and of course energy. One of the major sources of energy is natural gas.…

    How does one define social construction? Well, to begin with you can certainly consider gender differences in social construction. When referring to social construction we are looking at ways society defines these characteristics and ideas within different cultures, whether it's the biologically involved or these instances are learned starting at infancy. It's these social interactions that people act and react to, and what is merely accepted by society. A woman is born a woman and a Man is born a Man. And these two human beings have different roles in this society that each one is supposed to perform. It's about how we humans in this society understand how the world is constructed through…

Because the economy currently isn’t well off – and hasn’t been recently – natural gases are now in higher demand for cheaper prices. Oil and gas drilling facilities are now making it possible for natural gases to be sold at extremely cheap prices and accessible amounts through the process of hydraulic fracturing. Before, the United States had to import energy sources, but now, thanks to hydraulic fracturing, the United States can export energy.…
