The London Basin supplies water for London. * Reservoirs are artificial lakes held behind dams to store water for drinking and recreation. The ideal location is a river valley with steep sloped sides. Kielder water is a river regulationg reservoir holding 200billion litres. It releases water into the north Tyne.

According to Adam Smith economic principle‚ laissez-faire‚ the market economy does not need the intervention of government. The price in the market is decided by the invisible hands‚ the intersection of demand and supply (Fine‚ 1964). In contrast‚ John Keynes stated that in order to increase consumption and investment‚ the intervention of government is prerequisite (Yearwood‚ 2013). After World War I‚ America experienced unprecedented economic boom. Industrialization and introduction of new technologies

When FDR was put into office he created something to combat the depression call the “New Deal”. The New Deal led to the creation of many government agencies such as the Tennessee Valley Association which created dams and inexpensive hydroelectric power sources for the people in that area. Today it is still one of the most successful effects of the deal because it attracted many businesses which turned a bleak farm land into boom towns. During the depression FDR also enacted the

Many of the main causes of the rainforest destruction include: logging‚ agriculture-shifted‚ cultivators‚ agricultures-cash‚ crops and cattle‚ ranching‚ fuelwood‚ large dams‚ mining and industry‚ colonization schemes‚ and tourism. In most cases‚ this is untrue due to the nature of rainforests and of logging practices. Large areas of rainforest are destroyed in order to remove only a few logs. The heavy machinery used

Lake Michigan is the world’s third largest lake by surface area. It is the world’s sixth largest lake. Though we consider Lake Michigan and Lake Huron separate lakes‚ because they are connected by the straights of Mackinaw‚ by definition they are considered one lake (great-lakes.net). Michigan is more than four million years ago‚ glaciers covered and moved across what is now the United States Mid-West. Michigan experienced the last great ice sheet.

fission where neutrons are smashed into the nucleus of atoms splitting them and releasing heat energy. Hydroelectric energy is a renewable source. It can come from fast moving water or a dam can be created to drop water and increase its speed. Dams raise the height of water on the upstream side of the dam‚ giving it more gravitational potential energy. The water then drops through pipes in the dam transferring the potential energy to kinetic energy. The water hits turbines which turn generators changing
