The short story “No Renewal”, by Spider Robinson, depicts a dystopian version of Earth in the future of 2049. It indicates the outcomes of our actions due to mass production of resources causing a decrease in natural resources. Humans have become so dependable on technology that they are blinded in terms of consequences and implications it causes.

Even then he can no longer see the far shores of New Brunswick, for the air is thicker then when Douglas was a child”
The Tweed Head River bypassing system started getting built in 2001 and was fully developed in 2008. The Tweed head river bypass was created to keep a safe, crossable entrance to the tweed river and also to reestablish and uphold the coastal sand for the southern gold coast beaches in Queensland. The Tweed head river bypass works by sand being collected by the southern side of Tweed River at Letitia Spit entrance, and pumps the sand under the river to vents on the northern side. From there currents and waves, move the sand causing the Gold Coast Beaches to become nourished with sand.

As Stephen Ambrose once said, “dams have harmed our wildlife and made rivers less useful for recreation.” The W. A. C. Bennett Dam is a hydroelectric dam that was built from 1961 - 1968 on the Peace River in the north of British Columbia. It combines with the Finlay, the Parsnip Rivers and feeds into feed into Williston Lake.
