be “wise or effective” for the university’s take on climate change. After doing portfolio analysis‚ if KU were to divest‚ we found that it would create a stigma against the fossil fuel industry and would show that KU values a more “green” planet. On the other hand‚ if KU was against the divestiture‚ we find that fossil fuels provide much greater returns‚ a larger pool for security diversification of the portfolio and finally the transaction costs

G Thesis Statements What Is a Thesis Statement? If you have ever worked in an office with computers‚ your computer was probably connected to a network. In a network‚ there is one main computer to which all the other computers send and receive information. If that base computer shuts down‚ all the other computers shut down—everything centers on that one computer. In the same way‚ every word‚ sentence‚ and paragraph in an essay must relate to or center on the thesis statement. A thesis statement

and solutions of running out of fossil fuels With the process of industrialization‚ fossil fuels have played an increasingly important role in every aspect of human live. The use of fossil fuel has shown an explosive growth in the last few decades. The term of fossil fuel refers to “coal‚ oil‚ and natural gas - fuels that were formed millions of years ago from the fossilized remains of plants or animals” (Robert‚ 2012‚ p.10). Fossil fuels supply much of the energy used by industry and nearly all

Fossil fuels and minerals go as far back as hundreds of millions of years ago. That is before the dinosaurs. Fossils fuels were formed in the Carboniferous Period. The Carboniferous Period occurred about 300 million years ago. In this period our Earth was covered in a swampy plant life. Lots of algae and big leafy plants covered the earth. When these plants died at the bottom of these swamps and lakes ‚they formed something called peat. Then new rock was formed on top of the peat called

To a large extent‚ I agree that the nuclear power is an unsustainable energy resource. Environmentally‚ water for cooling process of the nuclear plants is released into the sea. This causes thermal pollution and reduces water quality. Moreover‚ the radioactive wastes in the nuclear plants will release radioactive substances and contaminate the surrounding areas. Even if the waste is buried underground‚ there may be leakage‚ polluting the underground water and soil. Serious damage is done to the

The thesis statement or main claim must be debatable An argumentative or persuasive piece of writing must begin with a debatable thesis or claim.

rapid rate in recent years. Resources such as water and fossil fuel have become almost extinct. This has led to people seeking alternative ways to generate electricity. One unique way out of this energy crisis seems to be "nuclear energy." The science of nuclear fission and atomic radiation was developed between 1895 and 1945; much of that development was focused on the atomic bomb. Then‚ in 1945‚ attention shifted to harnessing this energy for making electricity. Uranium was first discovered in
