Cadmium In The Environment
(10 Pages, 119.5 USD)
|
|
A 10 page paper discussing the effects of environmental cadmium. Cadmium is a naturally occurring element, a heavy metal found in conjunction with iron, zinc and copper ores. Once used heavily in electronics manufacturing and believed not to affect the water supply, research has discovered that cadmium does indeed leach through the soil, affecting both ground and surface water. It can be taken up by plants growing in contaminated soil and then ingested by humans. Cadmium is cumulative in its effects, and the dangers of long-term, low-level exposure include cancer, kidney disease and reproductive problems, and may also contribute to other physical conditions.

Reclamation Master Alternatives
(6 Pages, 71.7 USD)
|
|
A 6 page environmental engineering paper discussing alternatives to soil reclamation projects in which there were few active steps made in reclaiming contaminated soil, projects in which the preferred method of reclamation were of the 'wait and see' variety. Alternatives suggested include lowering soil pH so that the contaminants are more available for plant uptake, planting the contaminated soil with varieties susceptible to uptake of the primary contaminants, followed by harvest and destruction of the plants so that the contaminants removed by the plants are not reintroduced to the soil. The paper encourages the environmental engineer to use the wealth of research data, such as plant species and specific contaminant compatibility, to speed reclamation projects and reduce their total cost.

Repercussions Of Toxic Waste
(6 Pages, 71.7 USD)
|
|
6 pages in length. It is not as though no one saw the problem escalating long before it reached its current out-of-control proportion; rather, toxic waste and the myriad problems that accompany it have been noted for the past several decades. But it has only been in more recent years that the great threat of toxic waste repercussion upon the ecosystem has been truly recognized for the irreparable damage it has caused. Because of this ongoing damage, environmental groups are scrambling to reverse some of the negative influence toxic waste has cast upon the land, air and water. The writer discusses such repercussions as they deal with toxic waste. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Environmentally Friendly Shopping Bags
(12 Pages, 143.4 USD)
|
|
12 pages in length. Implementing the use of environmentally friendly shopping bags at the mall is a wonderfully ecologically-minded prospect that will not only gain the complex considerable publicity for its progressive thinking, but it will also establish it as one of a handful of malls adhering to the same restriction. However, it will also bring to light some significant challenges that must first be thoroughly researched before determining if such an idea merits execution. The writer gives a brief overview of required research topics, presents a research proposal, as well as provides a pertinent questionnaire for project participants to complete. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
