Water Pollution And Paper Manufacturing (8 Pages, 95.6 USD)

8 pages in length. The pulp and paper industry produces a significant amount of chemical waste by way of its manufacturing processes. These toxic substances, which include inorganics for pulping and bleaching to slimicides and polymers for retention and wet and dry strength, have caused a great deal of water pollution having been allowed to freely run into potable supplies. This runoff effect has caused growing concerns with regard to the overall negative impact pulp and paper mills have upon the environment. As a means by which to address these concerns, countries worldwide have begun to focus upon the implementation of regulatory and monitoring programs, with recycling representing just one element. Still, there exist water pollutants from recycling methods, however, government regulations are expected to address these issues by mandating the use of special chemicals made to control and remove the contaminants. The writer discusses water pollution as it relates to the paper manufacturing industry. Bibliography lists 9 sources.

Stauber & Rampton/Toxic Sludge (5 Pages, 59.75 USD)

A 5 page analysis of the book Toxic Sludge is Good for You by John C. Stauber and Sheldon Rampton. This book outlines the dubious activities of the public relations industry-how it started with duplicity and has, ever since, continued to manipulate public opinion for whomever will pay‹which is usually industry, but sometimes government. The authors argue persuasively that the process of the free exchange of ideas has been polluted and degraded by this industry, which began by convincing American women to take up a habit that causes cancer to selling the US on nuclear power.

Alternatives for Municipal Waste (4 Pages, 47.8 USD)

A 4 page paper, with a one page outline, which discusses the current conditions relating to municipal waste and the alternatives that are being implemented to deal with the problems. The most obvious type of implementation being put into use today is recycling. Unfortunately, this does not always work. A definition of the types of recycling are illustrated. In addition we illustrate the method of waste-to-energy, which presents a very positive way to dispose of waste. Unfortunately no one method can prove completely effective, but perhaps through every possible way of disposing of waste, we can see the future in a more positive light in regards to refuse.

Apalachicola Bay / The Threat Of Pollution From Inadequate Sewage Treatment (6 Pages, 71.7 USD)

6 pages in length. Florida's Apalachicola Bay is in grave danger. The fact that raw sewage and toxic chemicals are floating around in its waters, contaminating the ecosystem that depends upon its flow for life-giving components, has played a significant role in rendering the bay a health hazard. The reason for this perpetual contamination is that the existing sewage treatment program is woefully inadequate, having little effect on the massive amounts of contaminants present within the water. In economic terms, such contamination means a considerable threat to the various seafood products acquired from the bay, including its well-known oysters, fish, shrimp and crab supply. The waters that flow in the Apalachicola Bay are essential for sustaining these entities, as well as providing nourishment to the valuable seal life that represents the area's biodiversity. The writer discusses how inadequate sewage treatment is threatening the Apalachicola Bay. Bibliography lists 4 sources.
