Blue Ocean Strategy August 21‚ 2014 University of Phoenix Blue ocean strategy is a concept written to question the standard five forces concept of marketing. The idea is to move out of the quote “red ocean” where there are sharks always competing into the “blue ocean” competition of your own where other competition is nonexistent. A red ocean is easily understood since it “represents all the industries in existence today” (Kim & Mauborgne‚ 2004). Blue ocean focuses on potential

Ocean Acidification The main theme of the 3 articles is that the ocean is becoming more acidic due to fossil-fuel emission of CO2. The ocean has absorbed about 525 billion tons of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere‚ this reduces the amount of greenhouse gas in the atmosphere (1). ). It is lowering the pH by .1 units changing it from 8.2 to 8.1… it is becoming more acidic. (2). It happens when the CO2 from the air mixes with the sea water‚ it produces a bicarbonate ion. This bicarbonate ion then

In This Gun for Hire‚ one of the primary conflicts the film explores is that of man v. self; specifically‚ the protagonist Philip Raven is conflicted between his necessity to kill and his desire to do what is right. The film establishes this torn characterization through a few key events within the story. Particularly‚ the scene where Raven saves Ellen from certain death (though he had previously attempted to murder her) exemplifies his conflicted nature‚ as Raven’s murderous‚ criminal persona clashes

OCEANS AND THEIR COASTAL MARGINS: Distributions of oceans and ocean currents Distribution and Importance of Oceans: Oceans cover about 70% on the earth’s surface Great importance to humans in number of ways‚ include: regulating global climates and as a source of economic materials. Oceans are also important for leisure and recreation Oceans cover about 50% of the earth’s surface in the northern hemisphere and about 90% in the Southern hemisphere Ocean / Sea Area in 1000km^2 Pacific

This research project investigates how the pH of ocean water affects the mass of the shells of sea organisms. People who might benefit from this project are Oceanographers and Fisheries. The resources used included an article from the website Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History‚ called “Ocean Acidification” by Jennifer Bennett‚ an interview with Dr. Andrew Dickson‚ a professor of marine chemistry at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography‚ University of California‚ San Diego‚ and an

Spot reduction refers to the fallacy that fat can be targeted for reduction from a specific area of the body and that it can be achieved through exercise of specific muscles in the desired area‚ such as exercising the abdominal muscles in an effort to lose weight in or around one’s midsection. If anyone who said that you should do a certain exercise to burn the fats in a specific area‚ DO NOT take any more advise from that person. There have been many studies that shows spot reduction is not possible

Ocean acidification is the ongoing decrease in the pH of the Earth’s oceans‚ caused by carbon dioxide from the atmosphere‚ Seawater is slightly basic (meaning pH > 7)‚ and the process is a shift towards pH-neutral conditions rather than a transition to acidic conditions (pH < 7). Ocean alkalinity is not changed by the process‚ or may increase over long time periods due to carbonate dissolution. An estimated 30–40% of the carbon dioxide from human activity released into the atmosphere dissolves into

Oceans are polluted to a great degree due to humans using plastic and not being recycled. The article “Trashing the Oceans‚” by Thomas Hayden‚ which was published in U.S. News and World Report‚ states how the oceans are being polluted by the trash going within it. Another article “Managing Marine Plastic Pollution‚”John H. Tibbetts‚ was published in Environmental Health Perspectives‚ demonstrates how the pollution is greatly impacting the ocean. The article “Trashing oceans” utilizes ethos‚ logos
