Security threat plan Running companies come up with potential risks; some of the risks have detrimental effects and can result in the closure of businesses, whereas others are manageable. Organizations have obligations to understand the risks they face. Understanding risks lay basis towards making informed decisions on how to deal with them. Despite the categories of risks and the size of the firm, organizations can prepare to face risks before they escalate in size and cause unwanted damages. This paper uses Best Foods Company as a case example to illustrate the dangers that an organization can face and how to solve them possibly. The work analyzes three categories of risks natural, technological or accidental, and adversarial or human-caused risks. The paper offers a security plan that can be used to deal with the threats and recommends the issues that the security industry should deal with to reduce risks. Organizations face lots of risks, including; natural, technological or accidental, and adversarial or human-caused hazards. Threats may occur naturally because of nature’s influence. Natural events cannot be predictable, but measures can be…
CRITICAL THINKING CONCEPTS Inquiry One of the most remarkable phenomena which emerged after the Hurricane Katrina has been the stark variance in the perception of the racism role as depicted through the period of this disaster and its recovery. It is difficult for many people to perceive the events of this catastrophic event through any other prism rather than the racial lens. Roughly, 60 percent of African American and less than 20 percent of European American respondents settle for the idea that the response of the government towards this disaster would have been quite faster if only the most victims had been white. On the other hand, 71 percent of African American and only 32 percent of European American plaintiffs agreed that racial inequality remained a major problem (Adams, et al., 2012). A regularly cited research commonly titled “Huge racial Divide over Katrina and Its Consequences” as presented by Pew Research Center divulges that 66 % of Black Americans as linked to only 17 percent of the White Americans believes that the government efforts to rescue the victims would…
Parks Policies and Use of Space In Vancouver Introduction The City of Vancouver in British Colombia has registered a growing concern over the protection of the environment to facilitate preservation of recreational space. The approach takes shape through enacting policies that ensure the protection of ecologically sensitive areas such as public spaces that host the country’s old natural forests and habitats. It is worth noting that such policies work towards ensuring no construction takes place in the sensitive ecosystems. The advocates of such policies are keen to highlight that continued exposure of the public to these areas will lead to destruction and eventual collapse of the ecologically sensitive areas. In any case, the tourism sector is keen to advance attraction sites in its renewed strategy geared at increasing the number of international visitors. Parks policies in Vancouver, British Columbia. The British Colombia administration understands very well the role parks and open spaces play in serving the public interest and as such, the provincial park’s policies come in handy to manage parks and protected areas. Parks and protected areas are instrumental…
Movie Review: Before the Flood. The movie was made with the sole purpose of shedding light on the effects of climate change. It is documented in the horrific sights shown and visited by the leading actor Leonardo where some awful views are shown that are a result of climate change. There is an excellent detail of the ways that the environment is affected by many of our activities and also the means to fix our shortcomings. I agree with all the steps shown in the movie that should be taken to mitigate the damage caused by our actions and also the steps to be taken as we move forward. All this is for the preservation of our planet and our people. Many concepts from this film are well illuminated and ensure the viewer has a full understanding of the failure to address the various issues. Some of the technical aspects that would be better explained include how the solar batteries created actually store the solar energy and how it turned to power and also how the erosion of the coral…
Military Power Introduction Since the first plane went airborne for the first time, airpower has developed into an essential element for military power. It is evident and proved during wars that took place, for instance, the Gulf and Iraq war. The air force has developed from an experimental force to be a vital force in the world war. Airpower has considered having various advantages, and there are specific capabilities that the military has. In the military context, capability is regarded as the power in achieving the laid down operations. It goes beyond the training and the aircraft, and it incorporates a holistic approach to the activities undertaken in the air force. However, there some limitations are present to the air force, which limits their power. The essay shall check on the military capabilities and as well as address barriers that bind them. Capabilities The air force in their mandate protects the airspace of American soil from threats of terrorism from extremist groups. When there are distress calls on passenger planes, the air force reacts promptly to disable such groups and…

Methods of Controlling Hazards Organizational wise, the most effective approach to shield the workers is to remove or eliminate the hazard associated through the incorporation of various control methods. The elimination can be done through the use of multiple ways, such as substitution (Bennett, 2013). Substitution involves relieving toxic chemicals, gadgets or work approaches with safer and less toxic ones. In most cases, elimination may not be feasible, and when it applies substitution becomes the best approach to hazard mitigation. A good example is substituting toluene for benzene or Saw Stop table saws for existing traditional table saws. Another most effective method of hazard control is the use of engineering controls, which comprises a variety of ways for minimizing hazards. The process control, enclosure and isolation, and ventilation are the conventional methods for engineering control. Process control changes how a particular job is performed to mitigate the risk associated. For example, the wet method can be used when drilling to minimize vapour generation. Enclosure and isolation are timed with the primary aim of keeping chemical in and the researcher out…
Global warring is china’s fault not the USA Introduction Global warring is concerned with the war or conflicts that may arise due to the rapid and uncontrolled changes in geopolitics, the global environment, and the global economic system. Disputes or war may result in the destruction of a country’s income, alter human being’s existence or even lead to an environmental crisis (John, 4). China can be said to be at fault of global warring due to its contribution to it. The global warring effect can be analyzed in aspects like economic, political and social systems. The thesis of the statement is to explain and ascertain why China is precisely the one to blame for global warring and not USA (Paskal, 4-6). Body Cleo Paskal, a journalist, argues that climate change catastrophically leads to environmental change. He further details the negative implications of the ecological crisis and also the geopolitical status quo. A deadly European heat wave namely Hurricane Katrina and also the Asian tsunami are examples of environmental disasters that are used to explain the adverse effects of climate (John,7-9).In…

Some celebrities encourage social fairness and take part in relief projects when a disaster arises. When teenagers do not grow an unhealthy passion with celebrities or want to live like a celebrity, their interest in movie stars and eminent athletes have recompences on their lives.

My Hopes and Fears for Technology in the Future As it is currently, technology is taking control of every aspect of our lives. What do we not use technology for? I cannot think of many things. Our televisions are digitized, the education system is digital, social interactions are digital, and even our experiences are mostly dependent on technology. In today’s world, a person who is not astute with technology is perceived as being wayward and primitive. Nowadays, people do not ask for phone numbers or street addresses. No, they ask for your technological address. How many times have you heard someone tell the other to give them their Twitter ID so that they can DM them? Companies now hold job interviews via social apps such as Skype and Google Messenger. Technology right now is ruling the world, but how impactful will technology be in the future. I have both hopes and fears about the use of technology in the future. Currently, technology has made everything easier. For students, they can now access a world of academic information by just clicking…
