Is Geothermal Energy Renewable, An Endless Energy Supply?
Harry Cooper – Humanity has begun to exhaust its resources trying to power our constantly growing modern societies. Governments, scientists, and companies everywhere have been undergoing an intensive search for new renewable energies and new renewable energy sources.
Nutrient Pollution Is Destroying Our Aquatic Ecosystems
Sydney Cohen – According to the National Ocean and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), “nutrient pollution is the process where too many nutrients, mainly nitrogen and phosphorus, are added to bodies of water and can act like fertilizer, causing excessive growth of algae.”
Choose Environmentally Friendly Hemp Insulation
Ilana Stein – Hemp is the perfect example of something that was looked down on for the past 100 years, before being recognized as a material that is not only extremely useful but is also the environmentally-friendly choice for building materials – not least of which is hemp insulation.
Respect and Protect The Unique Arctic National Wildlife Refuge
Harry Cooper – The Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, often shortened to ANWR, is a massive wildlife refuge in northeast Alaska. The ANWR is the largest national wildlife refuge in the United States, and is about the size of South Carolina.
Habitat Corridors Allow Human Development Whilst Saving Biodiversity
Harry Cooper – Humans have altered the natural environment to a considerable extent. Building massive cities, and roads has completely reshaped the landscape of the natural world to better suit humans. However, this new and changing world is certainly not beneficial to everything living in it.
Urban Runoff Pollutes Our Rivers
Sydney Cohen – Urban runoff pollution is another of the world’s environmental issues. Cities can contain up to 90 percent of impervious surfaces including roofs, sidewalks, and streets, where water accumulates and quickly runs away from the surface.
Knowing Geothermal Energy Facts Could Save us From Climate Change
Harry Cooper – In a world becoming increasingly aware of climate change, the demand for renewable energy has never been higher. We have found many different forms of renewable energy from wind to solar to hydro. One of the less talked about, but still very viable sources of renewable electricity is geothermal energy.
Waste Free Living – The Benefits of Living With a Conscience
Sarah Kudishecich – Anyone who reads the news today is exposed to alarming articles about climate change and environmental degradation. Most recently, a study found micro-plastics for the first time in human blood. The average adult actually consumes a credit card worth of plastic every week.
The Realities Of A Plastic Free Lifestyle
Sarah Kudishevich – On an average day, Sarah Kudishevich wakes up in the morning, makes herself some eggs that she bought package-free from her local farm, adds in some chopped veggies that she purchased in her reusable shopping bags, pours some loose leaf tea in her reusable mug, and heads out for the day.
