As the climate changes‚ coral bleaching is predicted to become more frequent and severe. Sea temperature increases and coral stress from other impacts may increase corals’ vulnerability to bleaching. As part of its Reef Health Incident Response System‚ the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority has a Coral Bleaching Response Plan for detecting and responding to coral bleaching on the Great Barrier Reef. What is coral bleaching Many types of coral have a special symbiotic relationship with a

Renewable Resource Wind Power: Its Pros and Cons John Doe. GLG/220 March 9‚ 2015 Jane Doe Wind Power: Its Pros and Cons The journey to find an alternate source of energy that is in accordance with past events and current trends in technology has introduced new methods for human beings to care for the environment and to protect earth’s natural resources. An alternate source of energy that this paper will be covering is wind power. This is not a new discovery but overtime it took a fresh

Introduction A non-renewable resource is a natural resource which cannot be produced‚ grown‚ generated‚ or used on a scale which can sustain its consumption rate‚ once depleted there is no more available for future needs. Also considered non-renewable are resources that are consumed much faster than nature can create them. Fossil fuels (such as coal‚ petroleum‚ and natural gas)‚ types of nuclear power (uranium) and certain aquifers are examples. Natural resources such as coal‚ petroleum‚ oil and natural

environmental rights: Case study Coral Reefs In our world there are many resources‚ all of which people do not have a choice in sharing such as our air and our oceans. These resources are looked at as infinite‚ although this is not actually the case. Each time one person does something to pollute or use these types of resources‚ it affects the whole of society. This is the idea of the tragedy of the commons. This tragedy is the phenomena in which a resource may be used to such an extent that

Cleaner Renewable Resources‚ VS. Fossil Fuels By Michael Lawson Assignment: To Drill or Not to Drill Renewable energy is a debatable issue because on one hand‚ it could potentially reduce the need to Burn fossil fuels. Burning fossil fuels for energy releases much of the harmful gases that exist today. Scientists estimate that about 35 percent of the greenhouse gases‚ such as carbon dioxide‚ being released into the atmosphere are from the United States (Renewable Energy Is Beneficial

These types of homes can help homeowners reduce their energy usage by including proper sealing techniques‚ air barriers‚ increased isolation‚ programmable thermostats‚ low E windows and CFL bulbs. There are several different forms of energy I use throughout the year at home‚ work‚ and while traveling and the amounts of these energies I
