1. Marilyn Thomas purchased a pool heater from Sunkissed. The contract read that the pool was to delivered and installed for a price of $1000.00. The pool heater was delivered to Marilyn’s residence, but the delivery slip was signed by Nancy Thompson. Marilyn did not know of anyone by that name.
Many neighbors of Almaden Lake are against it because they feel that their are many more solutions that could work and are cheaper. They feel this way due to the money used for the system will be out of the district parks funds and they think the money should be used for other things like better campgrounds, supplies, and etc.. but at the same time they feel it would benefit tremendously because they can finally eat the fish out of the lake, bring more fishermen to the lake, and will be a better attraction for people. At this time, the park is currenting maintaining the mercury levels with solar powered circulation systems but they are temporary . So far though, the circulators have not improved the reservoirs’ water quality. They are many other solutions but none are permanent, the park will continue using this system until they can follow through with the oxygenation system.
As a result, the ability to make money off the reservoir can increase the budget of San Francisco for things like roads and also benefit the people of San
Now, over looking the positives, there were many huge problems or negatives going on. All those sandy soils mentioned
Two words…Water Wednesday!! There were many sounds of laughter in the air today in Garden 2! During Circle Time, we practiced writing our names and the letters “S” & “T”. For Show & Share, friends had wonderful summer collages of themselves. We were so proud!
Likewise, There seems to be a higher number of negative effects this proposal would have then is does positives. A small number of these include; a loss of ecosystem, a decline in tourism, environment and water pollution, and
One of my peers read this quote from the article “Landowners own the resource and have the right to pump water from beneath their land, as long as the water is being put to beneficial use,” and was confused at this because he had never heard of landowners being able to pump water on their land and that there was even a law for that. By examining this quote we learned something new instead of just reading it and continuing on. When I was reading this article I found this quote “In a drought, as the rivers run low, less fresh water reaches the ocean, causing an imbalance of salt water to fresh water in coastal estuaries,” and interpreted this fact that when that imbalance occurs it can have some damages to the ecosystem affecting the local vegetation and wildlife. The fisherman and farmers living near the water are also affected by this imbalance causing harm to their crops and animals. The other person I talked to had a personal experience with one of the quotes, “These farmers braved the elements; they were confronted with Mother Nature.”
Sure it’s nice for people to consider the well being of the fish, but sometimes we have to ask ourselves if what we are doing is really worth it and how it will affect us in the long run. I am pretty sure these 1 billion dollars can go towards something more useful than the San Joaquin River Restoration
Article of the Week Response “The Wrong Way to Think about California Water” is an argumentative piece of writing that was written by Michael Hiltzik in the Los Angeles Times. This article stresses mostly about the mere fact of how people waste water; especially in California. The major drought is causing people to use more water than we actually need to use normally. We don’t need to use as much water as we do
Furthermore, I will analysis it using the intersectionality approach because it can give insight to this tension and what is potentially at stake for both sides. There must be a transition from a strong sustainability to a weak sustainability because the focus is strictly one-sided towards the economic component, but other aspects such as society and the environment are being neglected, so there needs to be a great consideration for these elements. Additionally, I will describe the cost and benefits concerning the pipeline, which will expose both sides of the issue, especially for the environment and the
When comparing and contrast the Petaluma watershed and the Monroe County watershed three important aspects are pollution, location, and uses. Pollution is very harmful to nature and can damage the health of a watershed. The Petaluma watersheds aren’t the healthiest compared to the Monroe County watershed, because even though many people try to protect it a lot of people throw trash into the watershed. The Monroe County watershed goes through everglades and protected park and people keep it clean. These things happen, because
As per the context of the case study, we have come up with three possible actions that can be taken in order to meet the excess inventory problem are geographical expansion and increasing the market size by covering the untapped market in South and Central parts of America or making an internal agreement with a small manufacturing company that imports raw fishes and produces fish allied products such as fish oil, fish sauce, etc. Else we can launch a ‘Limited Edition Product’ by increasing the quantity per package at the existing price and providing exciting offers. The underlying cause of excess inventory in Neptune Gourmet Seafood is due to limited target market size. Neptune has to identify areas that are isolated from its product and enter new geographic markets.
Reducing Pollution One of the most important steps in restoring the health of the bay is reducing pollution. This
The bad things that would happen way overcome any of the good things that would happen if the mine was given permission by the government. Some of the problems would be economical, cultural, and environmental. The Bristol Bay Fishing Industry caught about one hundred fifty million dollars worth of sockeye salmon and was still drowning in fish. People have been fishing in Bristol Bay for thousands of years. The fishing corporations employ thousands of people every year which benefits the people by putting money in their pocket, food on the table, and also helps the government.
Gentrification is a problem that has taken place in many major cities across the country, and is an even bigger problem today. As gentrification becomes more common, it has become more controversial, too. Gentrification is the process in which urban neighborhoods or cities get rebuilt or renovated, resulting in increased property values and eviction of lower-income families and small businesses. Gentrification normally takes place in bigger cities like D.C, Boston, Los Angeles, Atlanta, Nashville, and Baltimore. The purpose of the process is to improve and upgrade cities to make them more presentable and efficient.
