Introduction

The Oxford English Dictionary has myriad definitions for the word ‘cool,’ from the conceptual physical sciences where cool means lower temperature, to its cultural connotation where cool means “restrained and relaxed,” such as jazz, and “fashionably attractive or impressive,” which could be a person, trend, habit, or behaviour. If one means pop culture, then it's harder to define what is cool, because the pop culture is broken up into subcultures, each with their own definition of cool. One cannot look at the current age with the same perspective as you look at previous ones. There are reasons for this. ...

Solar Energy

Solar Energy Background What can be more useful for humanity if not an unlimited power source, which we can use without any harm to the environment? Probably nothing, but solar power. Humanity has always tried to conquer the unlimited power of the sun – the history of solar technology dates back to the 7th Century B.C. and continues to this day. In the beginning, we tried to concentrate the sun’s heat by using glass, mirrors or other devices to light fires. From those times, we greatly progressed, but still we did not conquer this magnificent source of power. Why ...

Use of Fossil Fuels for Power Generation and the Need for Renewable Energy

According to Nelson (2011), more than 85% of the world’s energy consumption, which is estimated at 520 exajoules, is generated through the burning of fossil fuels such as petroleum, natural gas and coal (p.19). Electric power generation from non-renewable sources will, unequivocally, result in their exhaustion and creation of a major energy crisis. For this reason, it appears primordial to shift in a greater scale to alternate power generation, such as solar, wind, hydroelectric, etc. Amongst these, Sorensen (2011) explains that though hydroelectric power does represent one of the major forms of power generation, its growth is stagnant ...

1. Who Suffers from Gender Discrimination? There are two groups of people who suffer from gender discrimination.
