Peter Simonič Writing Culture for Nature Conservation Collective Regional Network Analysis Anthropologists and researchers from other social sciences have for long time missed the fact that there is no place which has not already been represented by some other interest. Post-modern ethnographic field is no longer homogenous and isolated space waiting to be discovered. Researchers try to consider different groups of interest. Also in rural studies‚ peasants (and their half-industrial successors)

Environmental Protection and Conservation of the Ecosystem We‚ the human beings‚ are living in a polluted environment‚ and it is getting worse day by day. There is nothing else to blame but ourselves. We are suffering from our own negligence. God has given us everything we need but all we do is to ruin His beautiful creation. If we do not want to see the future to suffer‚ it is not yet too late to act. By just doing the simple ways‚ we can help protect the environment. Every one of us has a

industrial as well as municipalities (Geurrero & Amosson‚ 2013). Lack of water regulation and conservation initiatives over the years combined with population growth‚ a longer life span‚ and drought has caused the depletion of aquifers to an alarming point (Somma‚ 1997). New regulations are vital for the allocation of water to support the various industries. However‚ they must involve new methods of water conservation to enable the aquifers to replenish naturally from the absorption of runoff and surface

Soil Liquefaction Dangers During Earthquakes An earthquake brings a number of hazards: • Ground shaking and shifting can cause major damage‚ tearing apart houses‚ buildings‚ and roads. • Flooding that arises from broken water dams or river levees is another hazard. • Tsunamis‚ triggered by an undersea earthquake as well as seiches – waves coming from lakes shaken by a temblor – can submerge whole communities‚ sweep away edifices‚ topple trees and drown people. • Fire is another seismic hazard

Causes of Soil Erosion Amanda Brown Environmental Science 136 Rainfall and runoff is a water erosion problem also known as splash erosion. This is the first stage in the erosion process. The impact of rainfall drops on the soil surface can break down soil aggregates as the impact of falling raindrops breaks up the topsoil. This erosion is caused by long lasting and less intense storms. Runoff can occur whenever there is excess water on a slope that can’t be absorbed into the soil or trapped

Effect of Clay in Soil on Plant Growth INTRODUCTION: In this experiment‚ the relationship between the amount of clay in the soil and plant growth was measured over a two week time period. The manipulated variable in the experiment was the amount of clay in the soil‚ specifically one hundred and twenty grams of clay mixed with eighty grams of soil‚ and the responding variable was the plant growth. Although clay in soil can be beneficial for plant growth in the sense that is provides good moisture
