resources have adversely affected environmental balance. Environmental pollution in India has increased manifold‚ One of the greatest problems confronting the modern civilized world is pollution‚ which literally means fouling the natural habitat and environment. Air pollution‚ water pollution‚ land pollution‚ noise pollution are some types of pollution. Nearly 175 million hectares of land (35% of India’s total land area) is subject to serious environmental degradation. Hardly 10.12 per cent of the total

The Environmental Impact 95 percent of electronic waste is recyclable. However‚ unregulated recycling can cause more harm to the environment than landfilling. While many companies‚ such as Apple‚ have safe and effective recycling programs‚ the majority of recycling companies export some percentage of their electronic waste to China or poor countries in Africa‚ where the waste is “recycled‚” or destroyed and stripped of its valuable metals. Though this seems like a good thing on the surface‚ because

Lab #3- APA3120 Information Processing Speed-Accuracy Trade-off Introduction Paul Fitts’ was the first to discover the relationship between the speed of movement and accuracy requirements. This has become one of the most fundamental principles of motor control. Fitts claims a relationship between task difficulty and movement time. He quantified task difficulty as “index of difficulty” which consists of the ratio of twice the amplitude over width of the

How does deforestation contribute to the loss of biodiversity in the Amazon? Introduction The Amazon rainforest is the world’s greatest remaining natural resource‚ and the most powerful and bio actively diverse natural wonder on the planet.

It covers more than 1.2 billion acres of land‚ and has approximately 6.47 square kilometres of rainforest; making up 54% of the word’s rainforests. The

Lab #5: Refraction of Light Theory: Refraction can be defined as the bending of a wave when it enters a medium which causes it to have some reduced speed. In terms of light‚ refraction occurs when the ray passes through some medium which slows its speed; such as water or glass. In this instance the ray tends to bend towards the normal of the medium. The amount of bending or refraction which occurs can be calculated using Snell’s Law (). Objective: To measure the index of refraction of Lucite

Urban areas‚ those high population density and built up places‚ are the epicenters of our modern world. Over the centuries urbanization has brought upon the rise of big cities as the epicenters of human culture‚ economy and society. While cities have thrived and become great wealth centers‚ eventually dissatisfaction with the urban was bound to happen. Dissatisfaction with the urban was due to a large variety of reasons‚ but itself it was the primary cause of creation of the suburban ideal. The progression

Environmental pollution will dramatically decline if the authorities are not reluctant when it comes to making disposals more accessible so that a clean environment can be maintained. According to (SWMCOL 2010) in Trinidad and Tobago‚ the average person generates approximately 4 lbs of waste per day This amounts to approximately 1‚000 tons of waste that reaches the landfill sites per day Apart from this‚ large quantities of waste are also improperly disposed of‚ and as a result‚ pollute our streets
