Advances In Sports Medicine

• Now, athletes can heal faster because of a new
  surgery called keyhole surgery.
• It reduces scarring by making several small
  incisions instead of one large one.
• Just 12 days after undergoing this surgery,
  Australian sprinter Jana Rawlinson was able to
  compete in the Olympics (Sydney Morning Herald).
• With technology like keyhole surgery and stem
  cell technology, athletes are missing less time
  on the field while still rehabbing to 100.

Other Advances In Medicine

• The genome of the mosquito has been sequenced to
  help to find a cure for malaria.
• Blood tests can now reveal cancerous DNA from
  healthy DNA.
• Doctors can now consult advanced computer
  programs to help diagnose patients.
• One example is the program Isabel, which lists
  several different diseases and ailments when
  symptoms are typed into its database.

4
Solar Energy

• 1. Solar Cells-convert light directly into
  electricity, such as calculator.
• 2. Solar Water Heating-where heat from the Sun
  is used to heat water in glass panels on your
  roof.
• 3. Solar Furnaces-use a huge array of mirrors
  to concentrate the Sun's energy into a small
  space and produce very high temperatures.

5
Advantage/Disadvantage

• Advantages
• Solar energy is free - it needs no fuel and
  produces no waste or pollution.
• Handy for low-power uses such as battery chargers
• Disadvantages
• Doesn't work at night.
• Very expensive to build solar power stations.
• Can be unreliable unless you're in a very sunny
  climate.

6
Wind Power

• 1. It is the energy from the air.
• 2. We can use the energy in the wind by
  building a tall tower, with a large propeller on
  the top.
• 3. The wind blows the propeller round, which
  turns a generator to produce
  electricity. The more towers, the more wind, and
  the larger the propellers, the more electricity
  we can make.

7
Advantage/Disadvantage

• Advantages
• Wind is free, wind farms need no fuel.
• Produces no waste or greenhouse gases.
• A good method of supplying energy to remote
  areas.
• Disadvantages
• The wind is not always predictable - some days
  have no wind.
• Can affect television reception if you live
  nearby.
• Can be noisy.

8
Nuclear Power

• 1. It is the energy from splitting Uranium atoms.
  
• 2. Nuclear power stations work in pretty much the
  same way as fossil fuel-burning stations.
• 3. Modern nuclear power stations use the same
  type of turbines and generators as conventional
  power stations.
• 4. In Britain, nuclear power stations are built
  on the coast, and use sea water for cooling the
  steam ready to be pumped round again.

9
Advantage/Disadvantage

• Advantages
• Not expensive to make.
• Does not produce smoke or carbon dioxide, so it
  does not contribute to the greenhouse effect.
• Produces huge amounts of energy from small
  amounts of fuel.
• Produces small amounts of waste.
• Nuclear power is reliable.
• Disadvantages
• It is very, very dangerous.
• It must be sealed up and buried for many years to
  allow the radioactivity to die away.
• It takes a lot of money for safety

10
Is it renewable?

• Solar power is renewable. The Sun will keep on
  shining anyway, so it makes sense to use it.
• Wind power is renewable. Winds will keep on
  blowing, it makes sense to use them.
• Nuclear energy from Uranium is not renewable.
  Once we've dug up all the Earth's uranium and
  used it, there isn't any more.

11
Hydrogen Fuel

• A potential alternative to gasoline
• Hydrogen is very useful as an energy source in
  its liquid state.
• Hydrogen fuel is created by taking hydrogen from
  its associated carbon in a hydrogen reformer and
  then feed the hydrogen into a fuel cell
• When produced using electricity, it is a chemical
  energy storage as in storage batteries
• A fuel cell can convert the chemicals hydrogen
  and oxygen into water, and in the process,
  produce electricity
• Hydrogen can be burned in an internal combustion
  engine
• Less efficient than fuel cell

12
Hydrogen Fuel

• Pros
• Non-polluting
• Hydrogen is the lightest chemical element and has
  the best energy-to-weight ratio of any fuel
• Hydrogen can be produced anywhere
• Cons
• Manufacturing it expends energy
• Complicated to handle, store, and transport
• Current fuel cell designs are expensive

Environmental Managementen.wikipedia.org/wiki/env
iornmental-management

• Environmental management is therefore not the
  conservation of the environment solely for the
  environment's sake, but rather the conservation
  of the environment for humankind's sake.
• Sustainability essentially means preserving life
  on Earth, including human civilization.
• Society mines and disperses materials faster than
  they are returned to the Earth's crust Society
  produces substances faster than they can be
  broken down by natural processesif they can be
  broken down at all
• Society depletes or degrades resources faster
  than they are regenerated (for example,
  over-harvesting of trees or fish), or by other
  forms of ecosystem manipulation (for example,
  paving over fertile land or causing soil
  erosion).
