Should Prisons be Privatized? Privatization is the practice of shifting control to the private sector from the public sector through the selling of the public organization to private investors or exclude the barriers to entry of a private firm into a public sector. Privatization of prisons arises when the state government agrees with a non-governmental third party to manage and oversee a jail or prison. The main daunting challenge that confronts many, if not all, of the justice systems today all over the world is the overcrowding of government prisons. In the United States, there has been a doubling of adult offenders, which has increased the country’s inmate population. Approximately two million individuals are presently imprisoned in the United States. Securing and humanely accommodating such large inmate populations has placed enormous challenges on prison administrators and also the local, federal and state jurisdictions who must finance the institutional incarceration of the multitude of offenders. The average cost per inmate is about $ 30,000, which turns out to be such an overwhelming issue for the government. For the government to reduce…
The Salteaux Culture The Salteaux Culture was among the First Nation people who believed in Mother Earth, who provided all they needed to survive in the plains they lived in. To ensure their survival, these people relied on the buffalo for food, shelter, clothing, and tools. The buffalo meat was cured and pounded then stored in bags called ‘parfleches.’ The Salteaux people encountered newcomers who hunted the buffalos relentlessly for their hides. These hides were used to make tents known as ‘tipis.’ The birch bark was used by the First People to make and mend canoes, to draw maps and write messages. The dog and horse were used to transport tents and property. They used beaver pelts as a form of currency in their trade with people from across the sea. Some of the goods they traded were gunpowder, axes, tobacco, muskets, scissors, blankets, and pots. For weaponry, these people made circular shields from buffalo skin, which were made by the women. The First People signed treaty 4 of 1874 because of the disappearance of the buffalo, which…

Air pollution needs to be understood well Introduction. Air pollution needs to be understood well to help conserve the environment and even to act as a means of intensified campaigns to enlighten people to stop air pollution. Therefore, air pollution means contamination of air. This can be done by several means, classified as physical or biological. Air pollution is the release of harmful gases, smoke and even dusts into the atmosphere, which later affects the animals, plants and even human beings. Air pollution can be visible or invisible. Polluting the air is also seen as releasing any substance that has the potential to hinder the well-being of living creatures, which have their lives depending on the atmospheric air. These substances cause imbalance that hinders the survival of living things, by creating an increase or decrease in the percentage of atmospheric gases. This research assesses the causes and the effects of air pollution. 1Air pollution is caused by burning of fossil fuels. Fossil fuels include petroleum, factory combustibles and coal, which are rated the significant causes of air pollution. These gases…
Poverty in Suriname The Republic of Suriname, formally known as Dutch Guiana, is the smallest country in South America, located on the northern coast. It was a plantation colony of the Netherlands until it gained its independence on November 25, 1975. Despite its size, and with an estimated population of 580,400 in 2018, it is the most diverse in terms of ethnicity. However, seventy percent of its people live below the poverty line, making it one of the poorest countries in the world. The high level of poverty experienced in Suriname began with their colonization by the Dutch and has progressed due to poor governance and structural shortcomings. After independence, Suriname depended on Dutch aid for development, and this stopped in 2014. Their lack of financial support propelled them to focus on other sources of economic growth, such as bauxite, agriculture, oil, and gold. However, due to corruption and mismanagement by the government, poor health, sexual exploitation, lack of education, child labor, and violence, these economic activities have done little to improve the living standards of the citizens of…

Reducing PM Levels Causing Pollution Quarrying activities and stone cutting release dust to the environment that causes pollution. The dust settles on not only land and plants but also water surfaces, which affects the aqua living things. The activities also affect fertile land soils through the excavation processes leading to soil erosion and infertility to the land. The damages caused to the biodiversity last for more than a decade since the small dust particles do not evaporate in the air but rather settles on the ground. As a result, quarries need to take considerable measures in managing the PM levels exposed to the eco-system A green belt surrounding is recommended within the environments where the quarries are located to control pollution. A green belt surrounding involves the planting of many trees that usually have broad leaves that would help in restricting the quarry dust from spreading (Sayara et al., 2016). Also, the trees would help in restoring the fertility of the land as well as prevent erosion after the mining activities.. A research conducted by Alp & Akmirza (2014) indicated…
Forgiveness is not an option for Larry Usually, people know who their true friends are during their difficult times, including tribulations. In most cases, individuals fail to realize that some of the people they ignore during happiness turn to be the only ones that would be there in times of need. In his latest novel “Crooked Letter, Crooked Letter,” Tom Franklin perfectly illustrates this notion through the portrayal of relations between Silas Jones and Larry Ott. Through the interactions between Silas and Larry, Franklin attempts to demonstrate the value of honesty in friendships at a moment when race relations call for social interactions. While time is the most valuable possession that human beings have on earth, it is evident that “some sins are too late to atone for”, as we appreciate in Silas and Larry’s case in which forgiveness is not an option for Larry. While Larry may have attempted to reach out to Silas in their adulthood, forgiving the latter character leaves Larry with a lasting feeling of betrayal given that Silas opted to act selfishly since the time…
