Before sewer systems and water treatment plants, there were many people who were still able to live hygienically. Even today, there are a number of people whose homes are not attached to city sewer systems, and whose waste products do not make their way to a water treatment plant. These people generally have septic tanks buried in their yards, and a drain field extends from the tank, also buried in the yard. This allows the waste products to be safely and hygienically removed from the home, and these products eventually go back to the earth. This takes time, and there can be problems with the system. Tanks can crack, become too full, or the drain system can fail to drain properly. If the slope in the pipes from the sinks and other facilities to the septic system are not correct, there could also be issues with sewage backup. Of course, that type of backup could also occur with modern sewer...
Some also prefer to have a septic tank because they have grown up with one and are not comfortable with other options. Of course, there are also other choices for waste disposal and containment. In many developing countries -- and in the United States and other developed countries not that long ago -- outhouses are the waste disposal option of choice. These were still relatively hygienic, because the waste produced in them was not in the house. Even without plumbing and the ability to flush waste down the drain, there was no waste products inside the home. The outhouse is generally located far enough away from the home so as not to be a health hazard, and…

Environmental Science: Population Growth Dynamics Population Growth Dynamics: Environmental Science Population growth generally occurs in five major phases -- the lag phase, the exponential phase, the stationary phase, the overshoot phase, and the death phase. The change in the size of the snow goose population over the years is a perfect demonstration of how the process of growth flows through these five phases. This text discusses the specific events that occur in

This is a codified part of student behavior that we may never fully penetrate but which is important to intervening in habitual bullying scenarios like the ones that helped to create Columbine. c. What political realities impact your ability to be effective? Again, most political matters are simply those related to our limited finances and resources. 5. What are the safety challenges which you see as most pressing to our students, teachers
Population Density There are a number of ways by which people are affected tremendously by population density and noise. When people contravene other people's privacy, personal space and territory with chronic noise, it may have an effect in a variety of ways ranging from mere frustration to harsh interfering depression-causing infirmities (Straub, 2007). With the increase in population, the three mentioned elements i.e. personal space, privacy and territorial confidentiality of
Resource The Everglades subtropical wetlands in Florida are recognized for their unique features and for the fact that they are one of the most beautiful places in North America. The territory is also impressive for the fact that it is one of the largest wetlands in the world. Water and fire are two of the two main elements shaping the land, given that floods and draughts constantly affect it. In
