Offshore drilling began in 1847‚ in approximately fifty feet of ocean water on top of wooden piers. Since then we have went from having a rig on a wooden piers and a platform 200 – 300 feet in the water to‚ having drilling rigs that can walk themselves and drill at a curve. Within that timeline discoveries of both good and bad‚ devastating and innovative have been made on the subject of drilling oil in the middle of the ocean

For drilling in the USA Drilling in the United States is the best thing that we could do for our economy and for everyone as a nation. There are a lot of factors as to why we should be creating jobs‚ making money for the United States and protecting wild life and our oceans through land drilling. Drilling in the United States will benefit us in many ways. According‚ to Portal Seven‚ our current unemployment rate under President Obama is at 9.4%; that’s the U-6 report. Drilling in the United

everyone love swimming in the ocean and seeing all the pretty sea life? Some people do‚ and when people are offshore drilling they can cause a lot of problems if something goes wrong. The biggest concern by environmentalist is not a spill‚ but the pollution of the air and water‚ damage to the ocean bottom and debris that washes ashore from day-to-day operations of oil and gas rigs. Oil Drilling can lead to jobs being endangered‚ animals dying‚ and damaging the eco system. So many animals are dying because

Population Density Population density is defined by the number of people and the area size in which they reside. The effects of urbanization on the human race vary between cultures. However‚ there is clearly a relationship between population density and human behavior (Rosenbnerg‚ 2011‚ para. 1). Whether the answer is moving to a less dense area‚ or adapting to an urban area depends on individual personality and preference. For centuries‚ Americans have dealt with overcrowded cities in order

Population Density Debra Smith OMM 612 Managing Social Change Prof. Martin Cain September 24‚ 2012 Population Density According to Social Indicators Research (2002) population density is “the number of people living per square kilometer in the district of the city where the respondent lived” (Social Indicators‚ proquest database). The American population is very dense. According the United States Census Bureau the current United States population is 314‚440‚872 people. In some areas of

This paper is a full determination for certain chemicals and their boiling points. It lists some already but given the atomic numbers of any material this project includes a conversion and calculation chart to find the freezing point of most any material. GOOD LUCK! Abstract: In this lab we determined the freezing point‚ and Kf‚ of pure 2‚4‚dichloralbenzne as well as a 2‚4‚dichloralbenzne/biphenyl solution. We used this information to determine the molar mass of an unknown (#24) by the 3rd step

Density of Solutions Lab Purpose: The purpose of this lab was to find out the densities of the known and unknown Solutions that were given to us. This can be found by dividing the mass by the volume of the Solutions. The other purpose of this lab was to perfect our skills in finding out the percentage error‚ uncertainties‚ random error‚ and systematic error. Variables: Independent: Mass Percentage of Solution (KCl); Unknown Solution; Temperature Dependent: Density Materials: 10.00 mL
