¶ … Environmental pollution has become a significant problem in this century, and a lot needs to be done to solve it. The article Lose 300 Tons of Co2 in Just Three Weeks by Kate Sheppard is about how environmental pollution can be reduced through documentation of how much waste companies release. How Farmers Are Going To Save Civilization by Jenn Hardy is about 'permaculture', a concept that advocates for reducing pollution, recycling renewable resources and applying solutions. The third article written Attention To Whole Food Shoppers by Robert Paarlberg talks about food crisis, advocating for organic foods whose production is slow. The people, who are the stewards of the environment, are the major facilitators of the achievement of a pollution- free world.

Toxics Release Inventory model created in the 1980s aims at reducing the use of harmful products in production industries. Documenting chemicals released by industries is the first step of the model. In 1887, two chemical manufacturers - oil refiners and paper millers were identified as the worst polluters who had released close to 3 billion pounds of toxins in the air in that year. After two years of using the model, the toxic release dropped by 19% (Sheppard, 2010). The model helps manufacturers to be aware of the adverse effects that they cause to the environment. It also helps them to uncover some of their ineffective systems; hence they can adopt new ones. Adoption of the model can assist in the identification and solving some of the existing environmental problems (Sheppard, 2010).

Permaculture is a concept that...
Permacultures philosophy is the sustainability of every aspect of our lives. The concept advocates for energy saving and change of the chain of food production (Hardy, 2009). Engaging in activities such as producing food for our household can help to reduce hazardous effects on our environment. Organic foods found on grocery store today have no spots because chemicals and hormones are used in their production. The world is facing a big problem; it is our responsibility to know what we consume and how it is produced. Food water and energy crises are problems we are experiencing now as a result of climate change. Permaculture is all about imitating the natural system that produces efficiently (Hardy, 2009).
Attention To Whole Food Shoppers
Robert Paarlberg
Organic food is not an effective way of providing to millions of people who are hungry in the world. Todays' focus is not on helping the poor feed themselves but production of organic foods, which is sustainable but slow. International markets are for those with a good economy, not for the poor. Poverty, inadequate infrastructure, and government…

Google Alliances Google and Samsung Google and Samsung have entered into a 10-year patent agreement to share in each other's patents via cross-licensing through what Samsung calls a broad range of technologies and business areas (Holly, 2014). The alliance between Google and Samsung for Android mobile devices has been described as something similar to the Microsoft-Intel alliance for Windows personal computers and to be able to form the alliance it required Google
Specialized Instructional Strategies for Teaching Reading The objective of this study is to examine two studies relating to development of literacy in preschoolers in view of the National Reading Project. Toward this end this study will examine the work of the National Early Literacy Panel (2008) and the work of Vossenkuhl (2010) both of which report studies involving literacy learning in preschool students.

Research Article CritiqueThe purpose of this critique is to critically review an article by Amanda S. Williams, �Worry, Intolerance of Uncertainty, and Statistics Anxiety� (May 2013). This type of critique is important because far too many college students struggle with their math requirements for graduation due to anxiety over their abilities and anticipated suboptimal performance. The critique includes an analysis of the statistical data presented to determine whether they support

True experimental studies tend to have a strong internal validity because everything is manipulated and controlled by the researcher. Also, the randomization of the assignment of participants to the experimental and control groups eliminate many threats to internal validity. Essay Question Three: Operationalization can be a complex process. However simply put, operationalization is used to turn undefined, immeasurable variables into defined and measurable ones. For example, if a researcher developed a
