I have to do a senate simulation in which I have to create and present a bill and try to get it passed. For our bill, my friend and I choose to have all newspaper companies use only recyled paper to make their papers as a means of saving more trees and helping the environment. Are there any statistics that can assist us with our argument? Was this a good choice? Please help us out! Thanks =)
I am solving an optimization problem, in which the resultant vector will either have the value 1 (meaning, there is a relationship) or 0 (there is no relationship). How can I restrict the value to 1 or 0 in the Matlab/Tomlab environment?
All this week on dadlabs we'll be regurgitating, er, recycling, er, HIGHLIGHTING a few episodes from the past season that you may have missed (aka the views sucked but we still thought they were funny). Today, from the Lab, we bring you Offsets. All we need to say is "methane recapture." Meanwhile, back at the studio, we're cooking up great, all-new episodes for Season 3 starting April 14, 2008.
Sukna embraces the idea of Tomorrows Living. It is a home solution with zero energy bills, zero governmental subsidies, zero carbon emissions, and zero additional investments, all at conventional costs, built according to German standards. Sukna produces more energy and food than it consumes. It is a state-of-the art technological solution to the environmental problems our world is facing. With solar heating and cooling, photovoltaic technologies, water treatment, green building material (such as the thermo-béton replacing conventional cement and U-PVC windows and doors), and agriculture and biomass and bio-fuel production, Sukna is a self-sustaining solution. Zero Ground Water Zero Fossil Fuel Zero Wastes Zero Governmental Investments and Subsidies all at conventional local building costs, built according to German standards visit www.mahjoub.com
I understand this was done in the times of royalty. A royal engineer would measure the king’s foot and say that is a one foot long measure. We could establish a similar unit of measure with Al Gore’s carbon footprint. After all, WWAGD?
Released dramatically utilizes a balloon as the representation for the carbon dioxide emissions an average consumer uses per day. Following an individual through their normal daily routine the film attempts to effectively capture how common decisions and actions have a global impact. As the film progresses the 'emissions balloon' expands, a direct relationship to the amount of carbon the character emits based on her decisions throughout the day. In the end the film closes by showing the scope of this growing ecological problem when the focus is taken away from one person and expanded to the surrounding world community. By this effective visual imagery Released forces it's viewers to think about the dangerous consequences of ignoring feasible sustainable solutions.
