For every plan to be implemented well it is important to determine the costs of implementation such as those of employing the Renewable Energy technologies. Naomi urges people to rely on the renewable energy as per the German’s help. Klein states, “The gal becomes not to build a few gigantic green solutions, but to infinitely multiply smaller ones and to use policies- as Germanys feed in tariff for renewable energy for instance- that encourage multiplication rather than consolidation” (384). Researchers claim that the analysis of Naomi Klein’s plan seems to be too expensive to the point of making a stop to some of the activities which are in progress at the moment. The estimates of Klein’s plans seem to cost a rough amount of 100 trillion dollars.
Spending such a huge amount of money on plans which are not certain would be risky and thus lead to the decline of the economy. As Klein is busy telling people in the free market to implement magical thinking, she forgets that her plan does not favour the fundamentals of free markets. She does not realise that implementing the renewable energy technologies will lead to higher risks of losing money since so much is spent on the actualization of the plan than the outcome. Naomi says, “Money earned from the sale of energy would be returned to the city rather than lost to the shareholders” (97). However, researchers have discovered that the renewable energy is not affordable as Klein ascertains in her book thus not many people will be able to access it. People will still be exploited, and the idea of neo liberalism trade will still be evident. According to me, I believe that it would not be wise for the people to employ the help from Germany to use renewable energy as the costs of this plan are way too high.
Words are capable, and now and then the words we utilize affront individuals. The right to speak freely is very esteemed yet what happens when your opportunity gets to be destructive or rude to another person? There are such a large number of various types of individuals and diverse things that insult every individual. In this day where we are more disposed to say whatever we need, we see more offense being taken to the words that get said. It's difficult to comprehend why certain words can affront to somebody when it may not appear that approach to you. We need to ask ourselves, why do we mind what other individuals say and would it be advisable for us to censer everything that goes into general society just so individuals don't get annoyed?
1. In her book “Total Domination”, Hannah Arendt strongly believed that Totalitarianism is trying to achieve the idea of Total domination. She studied and analyzed how totalitarianism had always falls into the idea of total domination in which she explained how total domination works in her point of view and her own description of Totalitarian. Her purpose is to show how the leaders treated humans lesser than animals in a way of how they torture people with their cruelty. She seems to have a great ideas of her comparison that gives justice to really make me believe that totalitarian has the same idea of total dominion.
Stonewalled, a novel written by Sharyl Attkisson, a former investigative corresponder for CBS News, truly embodies what it means to question your authority. Stonewalled means to engage in obstructive parliamentary debate or delaying tactics; to be unoooperative, obstructive, or evasive. During all of the novel there are many instances of Attkisson standing up to her authorities and encouraging the reader to think for themselves. She speaks mostly about her reports on the Benghazi attacks and the HealthCare.gov mess.

Feminist Theory is an aspect of considering feminism as having been based on socio-phenomenon issues rather than biological or scientific. It appreciates gender inequality, analyzes the societal roles played by feminists in a bid to promote the interests, issues and rights of women in the society. It is also based on the assumption that women play subsidiary roles in the society. The whole idea of feminism has however experienced hurdles in the form of stereotyping by the wider society. This paper tries to examine some of the effects of stereotypes that feminism goes through, what other philosophers say and the way forward towards ending stereotyping.
In the book Feminist Theory: From Margin to Center written by bell hooks, an African-American author, social activist and feminist first published in 1984 the author explains what she believes are the core principles of feminism. Throughout the book the author examines the early feminist theory and goes on to criticize it saying that it did not aim for a systematic change also that the movement has the potential to improve the lives of both men and women immensely. In the book the author investigates the performance of African-American women in the movement and what is needed to drive the movement towards ending oppression of all kinds.
Gerda Weissman Klein is the strong protagonist and eloquent author of All But My Life. Gerda came from a loving traditional family and home, which was all taken from her during the war. Although Gerda faced many hardships and death, her faith and dreams of home stuck with her throughout the war. Gerda's life and outlook on life itself were influenced by the Holocaust as mush as she influenced those around her. Her never-wavering faith in liberation and her creative personality lifted spirits and helped gather friends over the six-year war.

Sarah Grey’s article discusses Gloria Steinem’s recent statement about women’s involvement in the political sphere. She trivialized women’s ability to make autonomous decisions by implying that they simply follow and replicate men’s decisions. By stating that “the only reason millennial women overwhelmingly support Bernie Sander for the Democratic nomination is that we want to impress men”, she fails to recognize that individual women are capable of making decisions without male influence. Sarah Grey argues that Steinem’s statement is representative of imperial feminism and thus, as white woman of privilege within our political landscape, inherently benefits from the structures of power currently in place.

The year is 2200. The world is going through a fossil fuel shortage. Oil reserves are almost completely consumed and it is becoming impossible to find new fossil fuel sources. Not prepared for this event to occur, The United States, has no alternative options. As a result of the oil shortage, the standard of living deteriorates. Heat in homes, supermarkets full of food, and transportation, all basic necessities taken for granted, will be depleted because fossil fuels are used to power almost everything. The key to the prevention of this future is renewable energy. Unfortunately the support for the use of renewable energy is weak and ineffective. Unless the US puts forth effort to research and promote the use of renewable energy to consumers, conversion from fossil fuels to renewable energy will no longer be an option.
(4) Based on this information, researchers try to utilize green energy, specifically solar energy as an alternative to fossil fuels in powering the planet. This is a step towards sustainability as they are using what’s already available (100,000 TW energy from the Sun) and trying to improve upon solar panels (make them cheaper). While the Earth’s current population require 17 TW energy on average each year, solar panels are costly. Suntech Power founder Shi Zhengrong is focusing on cutting the cost of solar by making them more efficient rather than perfecting solar panels. Moreover, Steven Chu, former U.S Secretary of Energy has increased spending on developing clean energy such as solar power, wind power and carbon capturing by US $40 billion. He wants to supply the world with such technology as other parts of the world (China, India and Western Europe) are already in the lead. (4)
In the search for alternatives to fossil fuels, scientists and policy makers have focused on three options: nuclear power, energy from biomass; and a combination of wind, water, and solar power. Nuclear power, however, is much more costly and runs the risk of having it fall into the wrong hands where it could be turned into a weapon of mass destruction. The third option entails wind turbines, photovoltaic power plants and rooftop systems, concentrated solar thermal power plants,...
In conclusion, the world’s advancement leads to a higher amount of energy used which sacrifices the environment and economy. In order to limit and stop that a numerous strategies have to be applied such as the use of solar energy, nuclear power plants, and hydroelectricity. Through these strategies countries will experience positive effects both economically and socially.
Finding new concepts to make additional energy, was author Jonathan Facelli main objective. He mentions that the United States is seventy percent energy independent; therefore, a thirty percent is sent to spend billions of dollars to drill in other countries an...
