2. According to Sciencedaily.com 2010 water pollution may also be affecting male fertility rates due to the estrogen in birth control contraceptives B. Because of the potential negative impact on the medical industry, pharmaceutical companies do not want this information to be widely known by the public Transition: Now that you know how it is affecting you this is how it is affecting our wild life. III. Pharmaceutical pollution may be affecting fish by changing their aquatic life cycle.
Hooked On a Myth Re “Hooked on a Myth,” Commentary, October 8: Victoria Braithwaite argues that fish have feelings. I agree. Just because fish don’t show any emotion in a way we can see doesn’t mean that they don’t feel pain. People think that because they don’t how emotion we can treat them any way we want Studies show that fish have the same two types of nociceptors that we do, allowing them to detect pain. For example, Braithwaite stimulated the nociceptors by injecting dilute vinegar or bee venom under the skin of the trout.
Contrary to the District’s contention, the record also does not show that the Association indicated that it could not beat the savings under a subcontract. In support of its contention, the District submits that the Association’s chief negotiator (Mr. Kurtz) admitted to the District’s business administrator (Mr. Richards) that the Association could not meet the terms of the subcontract and that the Association did not request further negotiations after the District declared an impasse. According to Mr. Richards, however, Mr. Kurtz said, “Yes, the numbers, they’re showing a savings for the District” (N.T. 145), which is hardly an indication that the Association could not beat the savings under the subcontract. Mr. Richards also testified that Mr. Kurtz “didn’t feel that the Association could, in fact, come up with that type of savings, but the negotiations still had to move forward.” Id.
The Sacketts did not believe that their property violated the Clean Water act, requesting a hearing with the EPA, which was denied by the United States District Court for the District of Idaho (Sackett v. EPA 2012). The grievance challenged that the EPA’s Issuance of the compliance order was illogical and erratic under the
Margaret Wente takes a controversial position in her article Polar bears don’t need us to save them by providing an optimistic outlook for the fate of the polar bear population. Wente attempts to convince her audience that scientists are merely “making a political point, not a scientific one” (par.7) when they claim that the polar bear population is declining and will be “dead by a certain date” (par.7). She emphasizes that the best way to help the polar bears is to stop harassing them, and for scientists to shift their focus back to conducting core research. Although, Wente makes an effective appeal to her audience’s emotions, her overall argument is compromised by poorly evidenced claims, and a weak appeal to authority. The effect of global warming on the polar bear population and lack of substantial measures to stop the extinction of this species has resulted in public outcry in recent years.
The importance of the blue ocean strategy is that it keeps companies looking for untapped markets, which will provide new goods and services for the consumer. A product or service that might be considered a blue ocean move can be as simple as mixing alcohol and energy drinks packaging them and selling to the public. Anheuser-Busch could do this as long as the energy drinks do not contain caffeine. Mixing alcohol and energy drinks is not a new idea, but in November of 2010 the Food and Drug Administration declared caffeine an illegal and unsafe additive to manufactured alcoholic beverages. So now breweries cannot manufactures energy drinks with alcohol.
In Salmon without Rivers, James Lichatowich, who is a fisheries and biologist, talked about salmon history, population and differences about “natural economy” and “industrial economy”. “Lichatowich opines that we need a new "worldview," one that places natural resources within a context of respect and sustainability. He looks to state and federal governments to enforce the protections already granted by laws like the Endangered Species Act. And he sees evidence that public perceptions may be changing on such issues as habitat conservation and biodiversity; breaching four dams on the lower Snake River to aid fish passage would have been unthinkable even in the early 1990s. Whether this new worldview can save salmon in time is another question”
A large portion of the world disagrees with that statement and argues that he, in fact, did NOT “discover” America and that he should not be credited for that. Primarily, Christopher Columbus did not add any additional information to European knowledge. He was not the first to find the New World and he did not prove the Earth was round. According to research, Europeans at the time knew the world was round, not flat. Of course,
Thus, Pfeffer measured osmotic pressure but he was unable to find the relation between the value of this pressure and the concentration of the solution, its temperature, etc. He put this problem to the celebrated physicist Clausius in Bonn, but he, too, failed to discover any regular interrelations. Pfeffer’s results therefore remained in a specialized botanical paper, thus escaping the notice of scientists in other fields. The importance of a solution of this problem becomes clear when one
Firstly, the proposed access road is to be built along the edges of the wetlands. The sanctuary will not be touched by the local development authorities. This should not pose a threat to the tufted groundhog population whose home will not be threatened in any case. Moreover it is obvious that the area bound by the sanctuary will not be tresspassed upon. Secondly, there could be numerous other factors for the declining otter population in neighboring Eastern Carpenteria.
