The modern world is constantly attempting to create a smarter, cheaper, and more efficient living environment, in the fields of government, technology, and most of all, energy. Alternative energy has been on the agenda of every scientist and politician alike since the early 1990’s and increasing constantly with the advancement of the liberal political world since the early 2000’s, for the reasons of global warming, emission release and other motivations. Montana and its people’s attempt to modernize the potential substitution of fossil fuel energy has been impeded by the immense number of conservative political leaders in the late 20th and early 21st century. Montana currently is improving and modernizing, containing one major politician opposed to alternative energy, House Representative Denny Rehberg; and three endorsing a change, Senator Jon Tester, Max Baucus and Governor Brian Schweitzer. Montana must exercise its vast renewable resource potential advance economically, politically, and to assure the security of the immense natural beauty contained within the Montana borders. Montana is famous for the elegant scenery and infinite mountains regions. The American fantasy of the “wild west” prospers and lingers in Montana, Montanan culture, and everyday life; ultimately contributing to the high percentage of economic tourism prosperity, and conservative residents. Montana’s land mass contains an astonishing amount of alternative energies, including wind, solar, ethanol, and many more.
In-fact, Montana possesses the third production potential of wind energy and second in overall alternative energies in the United States, including the previous forces stated (See Fig. 1). Wind energy is an alternative energy that harnesse...

for people to realize that the environment ‘is like a bathtub of limited capacity’. Cities have been developing based on human culture whilst trying to be sustainable at the same time. Although it may be sustainable, the production process and the energy producing systems where they burn fossil fuels, contributes to the amount of carbon emissions that we produce each day. Green city is an expression for eco-city which is a city built off the principles of living within the means of the environment
pipeline project was proposed in 2008 by the energy company TransCanada. The pipeline would connect to an already built section running from Cushing, Oklahoma to Port Arthur, Texas. The Keystone XL would give the crude oil a more direct pathway to the gulf coast. It is 1,179 miles long and is essentially a shortcut from the first Keystone pipeline project which runs from Canada into North Dakota to Cushing, Oklahoma. This new proposition would cut through Montana and go directly to
south through North Dakota, South Dakota and Nebraska. The proposed 1,179-mile addition to the pipeline is now being reviewed by the States Department. The new addition to the pipeline would start in Hardisty, Alberta, cut diagonally through bisect Montana, South Dakota and Nebraska, and then on another addition would connect to existing pipelines to the Gulf Coast. The Canadian company TransCanada initially proposed the pipeline in 2005 and
universe comparable to planet earth. But the climate change poses obvious threat to all forms of life in the planet and no living creature is exempted. Extreme and unpredictable weather events and catastrophes are too overwhelming. Sometimes, people may need international aid to stand up. It’s quite alarming how global warming affects the world. Imagine the world’s coolest places, the Arctic and Antarctica with its ice melting and pouring significant amount of water to the sea. The sea levels are rising
Before reading “Cinderella Ate My Daughter,” by Peggy Orenstein, I was completely oblivious to the prominence of the “Princess Culture” that young girls and even infants are subjected to. Beginning as early as the womb, the tiny female-identified babies have pink bows and princess tiaras thrust upon them before they are even able to take their first breath! Although male-identified babies receive the “opposite”-blue, trucks, sports, etcetera- their enforced gender norms don’t quite reach the extremities

The clothes we clothe, the food and drink we consume and the energy we use all depend upon chemical engineering. Chemical technologist works out the procedure to brand all these products, while also serving to manage the world's resources, protect the environment and ensure wellness and safety standards are met
pipeline project, by TransCanada Pipelines Limited, involving the transportation of up to 830,000 barrels of oil per day from Alberta, Canada to the Gulf of Mexico area in Texas. “The United States portion of the pipeline would begin near Morgan, Montana, at the international border of the United States and extend to delivery points in Nederland and Moore Junction, Texas. There would also be a delivery point at Cushing, Oklahoma” (Environmental 5). The delivery points would grant access to multiple
it is stuck in ice caps and glaciers (water). The water ordeal in America is bigger than many realize, and the United States needs to begin looking at how we can solve this issue. The U.S. needs to acknowledge the impending dangers and help the states that are already suffering by putting water conservation methods in place and investing money into research for alternatives. Although the United States is secure for now in our water sources, there could be trouble in our distant future. The USGS water

On the 9th of February 2004 TransCanada Corporation, an energy company based in Alberta, Canada proposed a plan for the installation and use of a pipeline that would stretch from Alberta, Canada to oil refineries in the Gulf Coast of Texas in the United States. The pipeline, titled the Keystone Pipeline, would be installed in four separate phases and once completed would transport up to 1.1 million barrels of synthetic crude oil per day. Phases two through four of the pipeline encompass the parts
Twain’s Huckleberry Finn and Kerouac’s On the Road – The River and the Road One element that separates a good novel from a great novel is its enduring effects on society. A great novel transcends time; it changes and mirrors the consciousness of a civilization. One such novel is Mark Twain’s Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. For the past one hundred and fifteen years, it has remained in print and has been one of the most widely studied texts in high schools and colleges. According to Lionel Trilling
entertained by sport since before the gladiators in the Roman Coliseum. In the 20th century, the publics’ passion for sport consumes more and more of their free time. As sports figures became internationally recognized, athletes began to realize their need for professional representation. Thus, sports agents were born. The field of sports agents has grown since then into an enormous field. Agents now deal with every aspect of an athlete’s life. Agents can be considered professional mangers who find the
