It is a big debate as to whether global warming is natural or caused by debilitating human activities. With literature demonstrating both sets of opinions with strong arguments, boiling down to a conclusion seems a harder haul. Still, this paper explores the reasons to highlight that global warming does have a natural cause, but it's too small compared to anthropogenic activities. Clearly, the world has witnessed rapid warming in the last decade, and a fleet of surface instruments and satellites have recorded a host of signs that pinpoint catastrophic actions by humans. The clear outcome of these activities in ...

Abstract

The concentration of carbon dioxide has been abnormally increasing over the years. In the year 2016, its concentration exceeded the limitations, and has been considered as a dangerous situation. As a response to the increasing carbon dioxide content in the Earth’s atmosphere, different processes are being suggested in order to lower the concentration. Carbon Capture and Storage, or CCS, is one of these processes. Generally, there are three different phases of this process: the pre-combustion, the oxyfuel, and the post-combustion. These three phases have different processes in which the carbon dioxide content is being separated from the other ...

QUESTION 1.

Gold Mine raised the following defenses. Assess the viability of each defense: That the offering was a private placement exempt from registration based on Section 4(2) of the Securities Act. Gold Mine may argue that it is exempt from the registration process. Section 4(a)(2) exempts transactions from registration if they do not involve a public offering. Gold Mines offering through the use of the PPM were directed at particular individuals rather than to the general public. Irving may argue that the over 1,000 professionals constituted a general public offering but likely this will not hold ...

Exposure Limits for CO, Sampling and Analysis 6 Protocols for Industrial CO Sampling and Analysis 6 Carbon Monoxide in Substance Priority List (SPL) 7 CO Contaminated Superfund Site 8 Carbon Monoxide Explosion Case Study with Recommendations 8 References 10 Abstract Carbon Monoxide (CO) is a colorless, odorless gas, which results from incomplete combustion of carbon containing fuels, and has several applications such as effective reducing agent and manufacture of various hydrocarbons. CO is a major indoor air pollutant, and is released when combustion is carried out in confined spaces such as mines ...

Abstract

Intoxication is being in a state of alcoholic or narcotic intoxication. The government is increasingly sensitive to the cases of operating a vehicle while intoxicated, explaining that the drunk driver is endangering both for their life, health and property, and other road users. However, as practice shows, the number of the detained drunk drivers increases dramatically around the holidays. If the circumstances of the crime are clear, and in a short time collected all the necessary evidence, the Prosecutor may apply to the court to hear the case under expedited proceedings. Basically, criminal cases associated with DUI are dealt ...

Introduction

Quinine is a basic organic amine which is found in the bark of cinchona tree. It has a long history of relationship with humanity. The extracts from the bark containing quinine were used to treat malaria from the 17th century but as a pure chemical substance, it was isolated from the bark only in 1820 (Achan et al. 144). Its chemical formula is C20H24N2O2, according to IUPAC its systematic name is (R)-(6-Methoxyquinolin-4-yl)((2S,4S,8R)-8-vinylquinuclidin-2-yl)methanol. Its structure is shown in Fig. 1. Quinine is used for a variety of purposes. It is still used for ...

Smoking is one of the most harmful habits dangerous to the health of not only smokers but also others. Currently, smoking has become a massive "epidemic" common among men, women and even children. The fact that smoking is harmful to health know everyone, but not all realize the true extent of its impact. Damage to health damage is delayed in time and not immediate, but gradual, usually after 10-20 years after the onset of smoking. Therefore, many smokers at first do not notice changes in their health status and believe that nothing will happen to them in the future, ...

Is Climate Change Caused by Human Action

Introduction Are humans responsible for climate change? While it is evident that climate change is a result of different factors which when combined produce a hazardous effect, human action is considered to be the main cause of global warming. Numerous studies show that various human activities produce gas that traps heat which results in most of the increase in globally averaged temperatures. Clearly, atmospheric warming and cooling did not begin with people. It used to occur long before the rise of humankind through natural activities, such as volcanic eruptions, changes in the sun’s intensity and the already existing ...

Introduction

The current paper is devoted to the issue of the public personnel management, its main features and how it can be managed by the environmental agency of the state Michigan. This agency is called Department of Environmental Quality. Its activity is connected with the environment protection (including air, land and water resources), pollution prevention, supporting the sustainable environment and healthy communities in the state (Annual Report of the Agency, 2016). The structure of the agency includes nine divisions and offices. There is also special environmental assistance center on the agency’s structure that is in charge of the ...

IRON SUPPLEMENTATION DURING PREGNANCY

Iron Supplementation during Pregnancy Iron deficiency anemia during pregnancy is a risk factor for adverse maternal and perinatal care. According to the World Health Organization, approximately 56 million pregnant women globally get affected with anemia, which is associated with iron deficiency. The large group of pregnant women affected with iron deficiency are mostly the poor and most vulnerable, especially those living in developing countries like South-east Asia. They have insufficient iron to meet the increased iron needs both for them and the foetus. According to Staff (2013), approximately 29% of the pregnant women experience iron depletion. Iron is vital ...

Purpose The goal of this investigation was to ascertain whether there would be an increase or a decrease in global CO2 emission over the next 40 years and provide possible reasons for the same.

Introduction

Carbon dioxide (CO2) is one of the primary Greenhouses gasses (GHGs) alongside such gasses as Methane, Ozone (O3), Nitrous oxide, and Sulfur Dioxide (SO4) that are actively driving global warming and the planetary greenhouse effect. However, to understand the effects of GHGs it is paramount to comprehend the concept of the greenhouse effect. The light from the sun is not only used to light the ...

Introduction

H2S or hydrogen sulfide is a gas that naturally occurs in hot springs, crude petroleum, and even natural gas. Hydrogen sulfide is also known as sewer gas, swamp gas, manure gas, or stink damp. This gas is usually produced by the breakdown of organic materials commonly found in wastes of human and animals by bacteria. Some of the activities that commonly result to the production of hydrogen sulfide gas include treatment of wastewater, drilling and even refining of petroleum or natural gas, and kraft paper mills (Occupational Safety and Health Administration). Aside from being a gas in form, hydrogen ...

Given the recent request to assist a local chemical manufacturer with OSHA compliance, one of the major issues to tackle will be whether the company is required to comply with OSHA Methylene Chloride standard. The company uses Methylene Chloride (MC) chemical to manufacture a special paint stripper for the Department of Defense (DOD). Methylene Chloride is a colorless, volatile solvent, with a chloroform-like odor. Exposure to this chemical increases the risk of developing cancer, and diseases of the liver, heart and CNS (central nervous system). Exposure occurs via inhalation, and direct contact and absorption through the skin. The immediate ...

Abstract

Global warming remains by far the biggest challenge humans have faced in this century. It affects the entire planet although not the entire plane is to be blamed for it. The emission of greenhouse gases and particularly carbon dioxide has been at all-time peak in this century especially the last half of the century. Studies show that the current concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is about 385 ppm, up from 285 ppm prior to industrialization. This has sparked an unstoppable change in the climate patterns in the world. The changes are mostly with regard to the precipitation ...
