Philosophy 101 8/4/2014 Saving Water Water is a natural resource that many take for granted; yet it is one we are quick to mourn when it is not present when we need it‚ such as for drinking‚ or when a disaster occurs that thrusts its vulnerability to the forefront of our daily news. Twenty years from now‚ will you have abundant‚ clean water? Unfortunately‚ the answer may be no‚ unless you want to buy water at $3 per gallon. People are already starting to conserve water. Many communities are putting

Making Water Turbines Most Energy Efficient How does a wind turbine’s output vary with wind pressure (height of water)‚ the flow rate‚ size of the motor‚ and type of blade? Introduction There are many types of energy used today: Fossil fuels‚ coal‚ nuclear energy‚ solar energy‚ geothermal energy‚ hydrogen energy‚ hydroelectric energy‚ wind energy‚ and biofuels and biomass. Non-renewable energy sources such as fossil fuels and coal are diminishing since it cannot be recycled‚ unlike wind energy

much more than what we understand it to be. Education enlightens a person in the same way a lamp brightens a dark room. But in order to ignite the light of education in a person‚ a teacher plays the role of the lamp carrier. Through my educational life I’ve considered education as a process to not only gaining knowledge but also a method of igniting our thoughts‚ and the process of development of a person starts from his early school age. In the developing country like India where half of the population

Life‚ both animal and plant‚ is impossible without water. Without water men die of dehydration About 70% of the human body is water. Of the total surface of the earth‚ 75 % is water and just below the surface of the land in most areas there is a saturated layer known as the water table. Animals and plants have large percentages of water in their make-up and some animals regulate their movements according to the water sources. If there is no water there can be no life. The moon is a sterile desert

WATER POLLUTION INTRODUCTION Although some kinds of water pollution can occur through natural processes‚ it is mostly a result of human activities. We use water daily in our homes and industries‚ about 150 gallons per day per person in the United States. The water we use is taken from lakes and rivers‚ and from underground (groundwater); and after we have used it-- and contaminated it-- most of it returns to these locations. The used water of a community is called wastewater‚ or sewage. If

functions. As I began to assess an appropriate topic for this paper‚ water seemed to spark the most interest. While cell membranes‚ heredity‚ gene expression‚ evolution‚ cellular metabolism‚ and chemical reactions are all appealing‚ water is undeniably more relevant. I decided to dissect the article entitled‚ “Water: The Science of Nature’s Most Important Nutrient” In this article Len Kravitz Ph.D. discusses the importance of water for human survival. The article does an excellent job of revealing

Water and Fire Water and fire are two of the “classical elements” as said by the ancient Greeks. In regard to today’s society‚ science has found this to be myth and quite a humorous joke. Yes saying that it is an element when regarding Chemistry and when saying it makes up humans‚ is ridiculous. When looking at it from a different perspective than I’d have to agree with the ancient Greeks. When they say “classical elements” it is saying that these are two things that are major components of life
