Impacts of Electric Cars on the Environment Electric cars are perceived as eco-friendly because of their ability to reduce the ecological footprint on fuel. They have lower noise and air pollution compared to vehicles that run on fuel. They produce little noise and reduced emissions of carbon dioxide and other harmful gasses. They are commonly used in developed countries such as; France, China, UK, Denmark, Germany and Japan, among many others. Even though electric vehicles have positive environmental impacts, there exists an adverse effect which is caused by their batteries during the recycling process. Recycling of the batteries ensures that 30% of the energy is recovered, the process is, however, quite dangerous (Racz, Muntean, & Stan, 2015). Toxic substances are released in solid-state, e.g. slag, in water, e.g. mercury and air, e.g. copper to the environment during the recycling process. The release of these toxic substances makes the environment harmful to workers carrying out the recycling process. This danger is because the released elements can be absorbed through the skin, ingested or inhaled by the workers causing health problems that…
The Forensic Evidence Lab Procedure on Blood, Semen and Saliva Found at a Crime Scene The art of forensic science is treasured and trusted to deliver competent evidence required to tie a suspect to a particular crime scene. It also helps exonerate an innocent suspect held in custody. Following a guided step by step analysis of the provided evidence, forensic science utilizes some tiny critical details to unveil the identity, tally, the positioning of the people present at the scene (Peterson, Sommers, Baskin, & Johnson, 2010). This paper outlines the specific process entailed in a laboratory processing of the blood, semen, and saliva found at a crime scene to deduct a given verdict from what is proven. The collection, storage, transportation, and handling of the evidence involved in a crime scene is critical. If specified measures are not in the whole process concerning the evidence, then the evidence could lose crucial forensic information (Budowle, 2006). The collection of these evidence samples should be as simple as possible, able to prevent any form of degradation, and on top of that ensure…

Tesla Going China Tesla is a motor manufacturing company currently operating in the US and hoping to open up a plant in Shanghai, China. “Tesla is committed to the Chinese market, and we look forward to building even more cars for our customers here,” the CEO Elon Musk on Tuesday in Shanghai. Tesla’s shares closed up to 1.2% by Tuesday Influence on Tesla’s China market entry China is now the largest market for new car sales, as more Chinese consumers buy them for the first time. The world’s automakers have been rushing to build plants there, and Telsa has decided to venture into China due to China’s loosening its joint venture requirements for foreign automakers. These will make Tesla wholly own the factory but would also cooperate with the city of Shanghai on technology research and development. Strategic goals for Tesla going to China Tesla has long been interested in expanding production into China, but it wanted to keep control over its manufacturing. Automakers like to build cars close to where they will sell those cars, and China is…
Teorema Film Teorema is a religious parable based film by Pasolini which is perceived by many to undermine Catholicism.

However, the smooth background of their lifestyle conceals a political as well as religious confusion questions. The film is anchored by powerful and outstanding stage performances which are tied together by writer-director Pier Paolo Pasolini. In the film, Teorema concepts of narrative structures are revealed through the allegory in two-dimensional acts that merges religion and eros in a modern approach to give a story throughout the movie (Kesel, 2017). The concept of mise-en-scene in the film is seen by the manner through which Pasolini utilizes visually as well as modernization in his art; the shifting effect and strategy and greatly plastic sense of space engaged are appealing to the audience. In his movie, Pasolini utilizes the aspect of abrupt switching of the sound which nurtures the…
Climate change is happening in almost every part of the world Climate change Climate change is happening in almost every part of the world, and it is assumed to be caused mainly by different human activities. Climate change presents severe threats to people and nature in current days and even in the future. Without taking any precautionary measures as soon as possible, the global temperatures might rise beyond the normal levels and could go beyond 4 degrees Celsius above the required levels. Some catastrophic impacts might also characterize such changes. Global warming and climate change have intense implications for birdlife international conversation approaches and priorities. Climate change often affects the distribution and populations of species and natural world provision of services and goods such as clean water, fuel, and food. Other than these impacts, climate changes result in significant additional pressure on biodiversities, such as habitation fragmentation, overexploitation, and invasive alien species. For the past ten years or so, the total number of people who have been at the risk of being forced to move away from their homes by…
ANTHROPOCENE SHOCK Section a Artificial fertilizers have disturbed the cycle of nitrogen by leading to the release of nitrous oxide, which is known to be the most powerful greenhouse gas in the atmosphere. artificial fertilizers have also led to the excess runoff of nitrogen in the water, therefore, leading to the destruction of the ecosystem. Before 1900, ammonia was perfected by the German chemicals and was termed to be the most important since nitrogen was an important element in explosives and German had been stopped from acquiring supplies from Peru and chile. Section B: question 3 The average American soldiers in the second world war used 228 more energy than in the predecessor. There was transformation of oil logistics in the course of the war; refinery capacities were increased so as to response to the military need. In between 1940 and 1944,there was an increase of US industrial production so as develop their productivity in consideration of the demand of military needs. Again, the beach aircrafts company asked for the design of aluminum houses making the aluminum industry conquer several…
climate change Climate change is the global health emergency of the 21st Century is an article written by Hollis.Ph.d, J.D, a leading climate justice analyst at the Union of Concerned Scientist. In 2018,13 U.S scientific agencies together published the Fourth National Climate Assessment. The article indicates how rising seas, severe weather conditions, and high temperatures result in mental issues, infectious disease, and cardiopulmonary illness. Many residents of color and low-income struggles with pollution of air, soil, and water caused by the burning of fossils fuels or dumping lead and ash in the water supply. Climatic change is associated with chronic conditions like depression, obstructive pulmonary disease, kidney disease, and propels the body to overwork when reacting to existing environmental hazards. The changes alter patterns of illness and distort the health system, which can’t be ignored. Union of Concerned Scientists discovered that change in temperatures leads to the extreme increase of heat, resulting in more public health risks, especially to low incomers who are not able to relocate during severe weather events. Hollis states that Policies need to be formulated that…
Landscape ecology Introduction The rise of many applications of land management has led to the development and popularity of landscape ecology. In definition, Landscape ecology refers to the science of studying and improving the relationship between natural ecological processes and practical ecosystems. In essence, landscape ecology explores the relationship between land use and landscape scales. However, one factor that makes landscape ecology different from other contemporary studies of land use and ecological patterns is the fact that landscape ecology studies ecological processes that occur over very significantly large areas. For example, this article focuses on landscape ecology and patterns at Fort Benning, GA. This shows how the focus of landscape ecology differs from other contemporary land use and ecological pattern studies. The focus on a wide area of land means that Landscape ecology focuses on a variety of ecosystems and not just one ecosystem. This makes the process of quantifying the similarities and differences between different land processes not only complicated, but also lengthy and requiring specific knowledge, tools, and techniques. This article discusses some of these tools and uses…
