John C. Allen and is co-worker Stephanie Malin wrote the article “Green Entrepreneurship: a method for managing natural resources” that was published in the journal of the international association for society and natural resources in 2008. Allen and Malin work as professors in the department of sociology‚ social work‚ and anthropology at Utah State University. The article focused on the practice of the fast growing green entrepreneurs and how a green environment can affect a society. Just like every

inexhaustible resource thus humans began tapping them for municipal and industrial uses as well (Aquifer‚ 2007). Now‚ many countries are over pumping aquifers in a struggle to fulfill their growing water supply demands. For example‚ in the United States‚ the water levels of the Ogallala aquifer have been lowered 100 feet at a rate of 40 times faster than nature can refill it (Lester‚ 2007). While aquifers are critical to human habitation and farming‚ they can be and are being over exploited. There

• Depletion of ozone and formation of ozone hole • Ozone‚ in fact is a gas having fishy smell and O3 molecules which works as the protective shield for the life in the earth. It absorbs solar ultraviolet radiations and thereby protects life on the earth from several damage such as DNA mutation‚ skin cancer‚ blood cancer‚ etc. In the year 1985‚ NASA detected the thinning out of the ozone layer leading to the formation of ‘ozone hole’ in Antarctica. Since then the scientists have been regularly

DISASTERS We all crave for a peaceful and prosperous living in this world. But nature is not always as tranquil as a calm lake or as azure as a cloudless sky. Nature endows us with a considerable number of great natural resources that we exploit to develop our lives in order to keep up with the rapid change of our own country. However‚ regardless of whether we fight with all might to protect the environment or step to the opposite side whose people are apt to harm it‚ nature more or less

Layer Depletion The latest satellite measurement indicates an ozone loss at the rate of 8% just above the South Pole‚ at the centre of the ozone hole‚ 5% of the protective gas is depleting each day. In 1980‚ a hole in the ozone umbrella was found out by a scientist named Chubachi Shigerui of Meteorological Research Institute of Japan. By the year 1985‚ this hole reached to the size of the American continent. Factors Affecting 03 Layer Depletion The main cause of 03 layer depletion is the

Heterozygosity‚ fitness and inbreeding depression in natural populations Inbreeding is mating between close relatives and can depress components of reproductive fitness thus having detrimental effects on the populations survival‚ a phenomenon known as inbreeding depression. There are two principal theories for the mechanism of inbreeding depression. The partial dominance hypothesis (Charlesworth and Charlesworth‚ 1987) suggests that inbreeding increases the frequency of homozygous combinations of

Fuel is a combustible material used as a source of heat energy. Our country is rich in untapped natural resources which when processed would mean additional source of livelihood.

more each year. As the area of polar ozone depletion (commonly called the ozone hole) gets larger‚ additional ultraviolet rays are allowed to pass through. These rays cause cancer‚ cataracts‚ and lowered immunity to diseases.1 What causes the depletion of the ozone layer? In 1970‚ Crutzen first showed that nitrogen oxides produced by decaying nitrous oxide from soil-borne microbes react catalytically with ozone hastening its depletion. His findings started research on "global biogeochemical

Natural Scenery- For tourist wanting to see the natural side of Paris‚ the Bois de Boulogne is a good place to go. It is 3 times larger than Central Park in New York which means it has plenty of space for many activities‚ especially on the weekend such as biking‚ jogging‚ boat rowing and remote control speed boats. This means that tourist that has children will enjoy the park. Picnics can be held in the park‚ so tourist on a smaller budget will like this option more. However I think that tourist
