Texas: Population Projections and Implications” and “The Explosive Growth of the Latino Population May Hurt the U.S. in the Long Run‚” I plan to point out several statistics in the growing population of Texas and provide possible solutions to them. The most visually stunning statistic to me was the implication that Texas’ future population would contain nearly sixty percent Hispanics. The outcome could be viewed in a couple of different areas‚ with the first being found in the Texas population by age

I admit that noise is already a part of our everyday lives; it is that non-melodic tune that strikes our ears. Some are already used to it‚ but some are still bugged by it. We all have our break points‚ according to science our pain threshold due to noise is 137.5 decibels‚ that is about 200 Pascal over your ear drum. In comparison to diving without ear plugs‚ its like diving to 100 ft. imagine how much pressure is that. Many revolutionary home appliances today introduced models that are noise-free

unit of energy is cheaper and environmentally more desirable than to generate an additional unit. For‚ it is estimated that generation of every additional kilowatt for one hour of energy requires an investment of Rs. 7‚000 to 12‚000 in the form of new energy generation equipments. Excessive utilization of coal and oil for generation of electricity leads to the multiple problems of acid rain‚ and rising carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere. There are also political and economic implications like

Approaches to help allay such concerns include international fuel supply mechanisms and the possibility of a co-operative approach to nuclear power development within ASEAN. Southeast Asia’s nuclear energy aspirations connect with Australia’s role as a major world uranium supplier. Australia will also want to ensure that nuclear power in the region develops safely and in a context of international co-operation. This could involve using existing frameworks

Household energy consumption is examined in the specific context of home heating expenditures. Analysis of home heat costs across stages of the family life cycle reveals a distinctly different pattern than previously found when total household energy costs were examined. In contrast to the curvilinear pattern where expenditures peak during middle stages of the life cycle‚ these data show a positive linear relationship where higher costs are associated with elderly consumers. The research focus is

It can begin simply by turning off a light switch as someone leaves a room or unplugging a device when not in use. From these small acts‚ the beginning seeds of energy conservation can be sown. Energy conservation has become one of the most hotly debated subjects in the world. Old power plants are struggling to keep up‚ sometimes causing power shortages or “brown outs”‚ and new power plants are being built‚ but most of the new plants still use the same technology as their predecessors. Some

the year 2011 the world can expect the population to hit an historic accomplishment of reaching seven billion people. The birth of this seven billionth baby will happen sometime in “October or November” (Nagarajan). This baby will most likely be born in India due to India having the highest fertility rate of “fifty one babies every minute” (Nagarajan). So is this an accomplishment for humans beating nature by populating the Earth? Or on the other hand will humans soon have to come to grips with their
