Hello! My name is Brandie James and I live in the beautiful West Haven, Connecticut. When I grow up I want to be a lawyer. One day, you'll see my name Brandie James on a billboard.
I go to West Haven High School and I am a junior. Thank You!

Carbon Dioxide - From Global Pollutant to Important Energy Source

Scientists have discovered a way to turn carbon dioxide (CO2) into useable energy! The harmful gas that exits our cars, bodies, and factories has the potential of powering the objects we use daily. Researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy has discovered a new and unconventional catalyst for the reaction that converts CO2 to carbon monoxide(CO). According to an article in science daily, carbon monoxide can be used to make a wide range of beneficial elements from hydrogen to alcohols.  The problem that scientists are having is that until recently the elements that can catalyze such a reaction efficiently are the rare and expensive noble metals such as gold and platinum. However, researchers have discovered that single atoms of nickel - which is more abundant and less expensive - can be used for the same purpose. Both carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide are dangerous to humans and the environment alike. But if researchers can find a way to harness the potential energy of these...

Lack of Animal Movement may Result in A Collapse in Biodiversity

The last couple hundred Przewalski horses surviving off the Mongolian Grasslands. Humans take up around 70% of the earth's land surface area. This causes animals that roam freely throughout their habitat to move significantly less than they would in an unaltered landscape. An article in ScienceDaily says that mammals living in areas inhabited by humans move tow to three times less than those who live in areas untouched by man. When animals move they help important ecological processes such as transporting seeds and other nutrients throughout different areas which supports biodiversity. Additionally, mammalian movement reinforces the food chain by bringing different organisms to an area by way of hunting or being hunted. Thereof, if these animals are not moving as much as they should, biodiversity will plummet leading to the extinction of many plant and animal lives. In order to prevent this we have to make a conscious effort to stop taking more land and begin using the sp...

One Industry Helps Cut Carbon Emissions

Image
Cannabis is often grown indoors so it's production can be controlled. The article I read is about how the one cannabis grower helps cut the carbon emissions. Carbon is harmful to us because it increases the greenhouse effect. This means that it traps the heat in our atmosphere. So, things that live in cold climates find it hard to survive because of the Earth's warming. This cannabis grower is using different lighting to help cut the carbon emissions that is usually produced by the other type of lightings that they use. By every cannabis grower switching to the different type of lighting, this will significantly cut the carbon that is produced by cannabis. By doing this, they also have to change the nutrients and the amount of water that they need to use in order for the plants to prosper. Do you think cannabis users should switch to this different type of lighting even with the other changes that they have to do in order to make their plant grow?
