Slavery is no more a luxury than it is a crime. By having complete control over multiple human beings‚ slave owners were allowed to treat humans as if they were not humans at all. They were allowed to treat them like animals‚ and reject the right to let them learn to read and write. Most importantly‚ slave owners were unaware of the negative effects that owning slaves had on them‚ as opposed to a previous time where they had not owned any slaves. In the 19th century slaves were a very valuable and

After observing 12 different stops on a three-mile long trip of Putah Creek‚ the average score I calculated as part of the university’s sustainability program is 1.83 on a scale of zero to three. This is a score that I expected from a university dedicated to sustainability and conservation‚ but there is room for improvement. In order to improve this score and balance high/low scores the university should have some areas reserved strictly for wildlife conservation (off

seem to have no relation to each other‚ they are similar when the concept of dopamine comes into play. Dopamine‚ a neurotransmitter that helps control the brain’s pleasure and reward centers‚ is released in both instances. Working out and receiving positive attention on social media both cause the brain to release dopamine‚ boosting self-esteem and self-worth. Because dopamine is a “pleasure drug”‚ it can‚ like many drugs‚ become addictive. People who work out consistently become addicted to the feelings

Effects of Human Activities on the Lake Ecosystem I. Introduction On the first exercise of the Environmental Biology class‚ the students have learned what an ecosystem is and what its significance to the survival of the living and non-living are through analysis of forest and agro-ecosystems. The ecosystem as the basic unit for ecological study (Evans‚ 1956) consists of the complex of interacting organisms inhabiting a region with all the non-living physical factors that make up their environment

Renewable energy is energy that originates from natural sources‚ which is a continuing and nonpolluting energy that is replenished due to its perpetual natural motion. These sources are commonly solar‚ geothermal‚ wind and tidal energies. Comparing different countries’ use of renewable energies -- in Portugal this year‚ close to 45 percent of its electricity will come from renewable energy sources (Rosenthal‚ 2010). This compared to 10.1 percent in the United States (U.S. Energy Administration

20 THINGS YOU CAN DO TO CONSERVE ENERGY Whenever you save energy‚ you not only save money‚ you also reduce the demand for such fossil fuels as coal‚ oil‚ and natural gas. Less burning of fossil fuels also means lower emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2)‚ the primary contributor to global warming‚ and other pollutants. You do not have to do without to achieve these savings. There is now an energy efficient alternative for almost every kind of appliance or light fixture. That means that consumers

Energy conservation refers to reducing energy consumption through using less of an energy service. Energy conservation differs from efficient energy use‚ which refers to using less energy for a constant service.[1] For example‚ driving less is an example of energy conservation. Driving the same amount with a higher mileage vehicle is an example of energy efficiency. Energy conservation and efficiency are both energy reduction techniques. Even though energy conservation reduces energy services
