Vaclav Smil's "Energy At The Crossroads"
[ send me this paper ]

Vaclav Smil provides a forecast of the legacy of today's generation and what it will bequeath upon those that follow; in his book entitled Energy at the Crossroads : Global Perspectives and Uncertainties, Smil (2003) projects what he sees happening in decades to come if the dependence upon fossil fuels continues.

Views on Ecology and Fly Fishing
[ send me this paper ]
An 8 page essay that contrasts and compares three very different texts. The writer points out that Reeling in Russia, The Riverkeepers, and The Earth is Enough: Growing up in a World of Fly Fishing, Trout & Old Men were all published in the late 1990s and all deal with ecological concerns. These books dramatize the crucial nature of environmental protection and humanize it by tying ecological concerns to the emotions and activities of the people who live in and depend on the environments in question.

Volcanoes and Global Climate Change
[ send me this paper ]
A 7 page discussion of the immediate and long-term impacts of volcanic eruptions. This paper contends that while much of our concern regarding volcanic eruptions revolves around the immediate impacts to human life and property, a far more concerning aspect of these eruptions is long term impacts to the climate. These impacts can, in fact, do far more damage to the world as a whole than the immediate loss of human life and property which results with volcanic eruptions. An overview of volcanic processes is provided and related to the phenomena of global warming. Bibliography lists sources.
