The Outcome Economy
1) The document discusses the opportunity for technology to improve organizational efficiency and transition economies into a "smart and clean world."
2) It argues that aggregate efficiency has stalled at around 22% for 30 years due to limitations of the Second Industrial Revolution, but that digitizing transport, energy, and communication through technologies like blockchain can help manage resources and increase efficiency.
3) Technologies like precision agriculture, cloud computing, robotics, and autonomous vehicles may allow for "dematerialization" and do more with fewer physical resources through effects like reduced waste and need for transportation/logistics infrastructure.

The document discusses Elizabeth Lake, which is currently for sale for $19.5 million. It outlines the seller's proposed commercial development options, including a resort, marina, hunting and fishing club, and campground. It then explores conservation options through a land trust or government purchase. The vision is to preserve the wetland habitat, protect wildlife, provide public access and recreation, and ensure nature remains accessible. It asks for support to preserve the lake for the future.
Integridade Biótica: Revitalização do Rio Willamette
The document discusses the history of pollution and restoration efforts in the Willamette River in Oregon. It describes how the river was once declared an "open sewer" but water quality has improved due to various regulatory actions from the 1930s onward. However, the river and its fish populations still face threats including invasive species, pollution, and lack of access to cold water refuges during heat waves. Overall restoration progress depends on coordinated long-term efforts to improve habitat complexity and allow natural floodplain dynamics.
Management of Alewife
The document discusses the life history and management of alewife (Alosa pseudoharengus). It provides details on the natural history of alewives, including their population status, migration patterns, habitat needs. It also discusses research on nature-like fishways to help alewives and other species pass obstacles on their migrations. Finally, it outlines the various agencies that manage alewife populations on both federal, state, and local levels.
The Willamette River
The Willamette River flows northward through Oregon from Eugene to Portland, where it merges with the Columbia River. It passes through 9 counties and 19 cities, home to over 70% of Oregon's population. Throughout its 187-mile journey, the river has become heavily polluted from industrial and agricultural waste, as well as sewage. However, conservation groups like the Willamette Riverkeeper are working to restore the river's water quality and protect fish and wildlife habitats. With continued restoration efforts, the river's health can improve for both human and environmental benefits.

Klamath Lake is the largest freshwater lake in Oregon, located between the Cascade Mountains and Winema National Forest. It was formed from the remnants of ancient Modoc Lake over 2 million years ago. Nearly 7,000 years ago, the eruption of Mount Mazama created Crater Lake and contributed mineral-rich sediments to Klamath Lake. Klamath Lake's shallow depth, mineral-rich sediments, and winds promote the growth of a unique type of algae called Aphanizomenon flos-aquae (AFA) which flourishes in the lake but is generally non-toxic.

Currituck sound (1)
The Currituck Sound is a shallow estuary located in northeastern North Carolina. It provides important habitat for numerous plant and animal species. However, the Sound faces threats such as excessive nutrients, toxic materials, erosion, sedimentation, and habitat loss due to human activities. Conservation efforts aim to protect this fragile ecosystem and promote sustainable use of its resources.
Lake Superior
Lake Superior is the largest of the Great Lakes by surface area, containing over 10% of the world's fresh surface water. At over 31,000 square miles, it is larger than many U.S. states combined and contains 3 quadrillion gallons of water. Lake Superior has extremely clear waters with underwater visibility up to 100 feet, and it is one of the youngest major geological features on Earth at only around 10,000 years old.
Lake superior
Lake Superior is the largest of the Great Lakes by surface area, containing 10% of the earth's fresh surface water. Named Gichigami by the Ojibwe Indians meaning "big water", it has a surface area greater than several U.S. states combined and contains 3 quadrillion gallons of water. With underwater visibility up to 100 feet and waves reaching 30 feet, Lake Superior is renowned for its clarity, size, and power.
Block 1
The Broad River basin originates in the mountains of western North Carolina and flows southeast through the foothills and Piedmont region into South Carolina, covering over 1,500 square miles. Major tributaries include the Green, First Broad, Second Broad, and North Pacolet rivers, and cities like Kings Mountain, Shelby, and Forest City obtain their water from the basin. The basin contains over 100,000 acres of public and private land home to rare plants and animals and is a popular area for hiking, tubing, and other outdoor recreation activities.

The Broad River Basin:
- Originates in the mountains of western North Carolina and flows southeast through the piedmont region.
- Contains over 100,000 acres of public and private land with rare plants and animals.
- Provides water to cities like Kings Mountain, Shelby, and Forest City across multiple counties.
Lake Superior
Lake Superior is the largest of the Great Lakes by surface area at 31,700 square miles. It contains 3 quadrillion gallons of water, or 10% of the earth's fresh surface water. Due to its great size and depth, waves can reach heights of 30 feet and visibility underwater extends to 100 feet in some areas, making it the clearest of the Great Lakes. Lake Superior is geologically very old, containing some of the oldest rocks on Earth at 2.7 billion years of age.
Lake Superior, Magnificent Lady
Lake Superior is nicknamed "Big Water" by the Ojibwe Indians and is referenced in Longfellow's poem Song of Hiawatha. It has a surface area greater than several New England states combined and contains 10% of the world's surface fresh water. Storms can produce waves up to 30 feet tall on Lake Superior, which contains some of the oldest and clearest fresh water on Earth.
Importance of Key Physical Features in Georgia
The document summarizes several key physical features in Georgia and their importance:
The Fall Line marks the boundary between the Piedmont and Coastal Plains regions, containing many waterfalls that caused travel issues historically. Cities like Columbus, Macon, Milledgeville, and Augusta became centers of commerce where rivers crossed the Fall Line.
The Okefenokee Swamp is the largest swamp in North America, protecting over 400 species of animals. It was made a national wildlife refuge in 1937 to prevent logging of old-growth trees.
The southern Appalachian Mountains extend through Georgia, containing the state's highest point. The mountains receive over 80 inches of rain annually, providing important fresh water

Kiera's ss project2012
The Coastal Plain extends eastward from the Fall Zone to the Atlantic Ocean. Large rivers like the Potomac, Rappahannock, York, and James flow southeast across the Coastal Plain and through the Fall Zone, where the rivers cascade over resistant igneous and metamorphic rocks, to empty into the Chesapeake Bay, which then empties into the Atlantic Ocean. The topography of the Coastal Plain forms a terraced landscape that slopes down to the coast and major rivers, with scarps marking former shorelines and terraces representing emergent lands. This landscape was shaped over millions of years as sea levels rose and fell due to glacial cycles.
Alabama
Alabama is bounded by Tennessee, Georgia, the Gulf of Mexico, Florida, and Mississippi. The state flag and seal prominently feature the state outline and major rivers. Mineral resources are located primarily in central and northern areas, especially around Birmingham which has deposits of coal and iron ore. Cathedral Caverns has large stalagmites and flowstone walls. The Hank Williams Museum is located in Montgomery where the singer lived. DeSoto State Park has campsites in a beautiful forested setting near waterfalls along the Little River. Weiss Lake provides fishing along the Coosa River. The Appalachian Mountains contain unique ecosystems and caves home to new species.
