live in less economically developed areas (LEDCS) and the rest of the people live in more economically developed areas (MEDCS). And evidence shows that LEDCS suffer from the effects of more natural hazards than MEDCS. LEDCS donot have enough money and resources so they can not prepare to tackle these hazards and because of that they cannot help the economyafter natural disaster. So every year it causes a great economic‚ social‚health and other damage in LEDCS. Now I want to discuss this issue from different

efficient‚ clean‚ high out-put energy production. As a civilization we need not focus on what the past has held for energy production but rather what the present and future hold for us. Two key options are the long lasting‚ high out-put but environmentally hazardous option which is nuclear fission (nuclear power) and the safe but potential ground water contamination hazard which is geothermal energy. This paper will point out strictly fact based information on both forms of energy and which one shows the

Mumbai Script History of Mumbai To understand the urban developments that have occurred within Mumbai we must first look briefly at the history of the City. Mumbai was originally made up of just a small amount of fishing villages. This was until 1662 when it colonised by the British as part of their expansion of the empire. As a result of this‚ Mumbai became a port used by Europeans due to it being the closest proximity to the subcontinent. This increase in activity led to a subsequent jump in the

work the machines. Energy has everything and anything to do with my project. It is a very important term to understand. Energy is a very important factor that determines how far the cars I made for my project will go. This illustrates how if the car doesn’t have enough kinetic energy the car won’t go very far. According to my research‚ If work‚ which transfers energy‚ is done on an object by applying a net force‚ the object speeds up and thereby gains kinetic energy(Kinetic Energy) which will make

Why is Ghana still an LEDC? Peilin Cheng 9A Although Ghana is rich in raw materials and precious metals‚ it is still a Less Economically Developed Country (LEDC). There are many different reasons ranging from the environment and climate to their debt problem. Ghana is in the tropics of Africa near the equator which means the temperature is very hot‚ there is also a hot dry North East wind called the harmattan which blows between December and March. Ghana’s climate and ecosystems are split into

Dillon G. Nuclear Energy vs. Conventional Petroleum Energy Through out the history of the United states the main source of energy has been conventional Oil‚ Coal‚ and gas energy‚ or better known as Conventional petroleum energy. However as the demand for electricity sky rockets the pollution produced from the traditional fossil fuel burning plants is reaching dangerous levels. Gas‚ coal and oil burning power plants are as of now responsible for half of America’s air pollution (tripod/online)

Geothermal energy vs coal powered energy‚ what say you? Geothermal energy is a renewable source of energy generated and stored in the Earth. Coal powered energy is a source of energy produced from the natural resources of the Earth. Geothermal energy and coal powered both have many uses especially in generating electricity. In this field‚ they are similar as electrical energy is generated in a similar concept. Heat from the Earth’s crust and heat produced during the burning of coals are both used

All LEDC debt should be written off because it is stopping them develop. Many LEDCs find it difficult to develop and invest in long-term improvements such as education‚ since they have fallen into a cycle of debt‚ a debt trap. An LEDC fall into a debt trap by borrowing money from either rich countries or international banks such as the World Bank or the IMF‚ International Monetary fund. They borrow this money to help build roads and factories. They are often encouraged to do this by the banks or
