Polar Bear Powerpoint
•
0 likes•471 views
The polar bear population is decreasing drastically due to two main factors. Global warming is causing polar bears to die off by threatening their habitat. Hunters also kill polar bears for their fur and fat. Currently there are estimated to be 20,000-25,000 polar bears left in the wild. Their long term prospects depend on whether global warming can be stopped to allow their numbers to recover. People are encouraged to donate to polar bear conservation research and adopt more environmentally friendly practices to help address global warming.

Global warming Powerpoint
Cars, trucks, and electricity emit greenhouse gases that trap heat in the atmosphere and cause polar ice caps to melt, raising ocean water levels and threatening coastal land and animals' sea ice habitats. Rising seas could submerge 10,000 square miles if levels increase just 2 feet by century's end, and flood low-lying areas even more during storms. Individuals can help by conserving energy and choosing alternatives to driving like biking.
Soft drinks
The document discusses soft drinks and their history. It notes that soft drinks typically contain carbonated water, a sweetener like sugar or high-fructose corn syrup, and a flavoring agent. Joseph Priestley first discovered a method of carbonating water in 1767. While initially thought to be healthy, soft drinks are now considered one of the unhealthiest foods due to their acid, sugar, and plastic packaging. The document lists five reasons why people drink soft drinks: thinking they are better than water, boredom, sweet taste, fun, and sugar high.

Con Seal Hunt 3
The document discusses the annual Canadian seal hunt that takes place off Newfoundland's coast each year from March to May. Over 300,000 seals are clubbed to death during the hunt, with their skins and some meat sold commercially. Critics argue that the seal hunt is inhumane, as the seals do not die quickly from being clubbed and the ice is left stained with blood. They also claim that the hunt is no longer economically viable since the EU banned the import of seal products in 2007, and that it presents a dangerous occupation for the fishermen involved. Overall, the document argues that the seal hunt should be banned due to these animal welfare and safety concerns.

Zoe's Giant pandas-Power Point
Pandas are in danger because their natural habitat is being destroyed by humans, leaving them without sufficient bamboo to survive. A survey found that 80% of respondents think not enough is being done to protect pandas. Stricter laws around habitat protection and poaching are needed. Some efforts to protect pandas include establishing more reserves, donating to conservation groups, and patrolling areas to prevent poaching. However, another survey found that most people believe pandas are still at high risk of extinction.

However, another survey found that most people believe pandas are still at high risk of extinction.
Cell phone (marisa)
The document summarizes a study comparing the iPhone 4, LG enV2, and Sidekick 3 smartphones. It discusses the key features and specifications of each phone like memory size, camera resolution, and glitches reported. Most participants in the study preferred the iPhone 4 due to its large screen, many applications available, high-quality camera, and fast internet. The document concludes the iPhone 4 is generally the best option highlighted.
Tiger Alia
The document discusses views on keeping tigers in captivity versus the wild. It notes that most students surveyed believed tigers should not be kept in captivity and are not generally dangerous to humans, but can be useful. Tigers are endangered due to poaching and loss of habitat. While tigers have some uses for entertainment and medicine, they are generally dangerous if not in captivity. Preventing tiger extinction requires protecting habitats, regulating poaching, and preserving wild populations on farms. Tigers should be saved for both people and their natural magnificence.
Mac vs PC
This document compares the MacBook Air and a PC laptop on price, battery life, features, and included software. The MacBook Air costs $699 while the comparable PC is $1199, and the MacBook Air has a longer battery life of up to 7 hours. The MacBook Air includes iLife software like iMovie and iPhoto as well as the App Store, while the PC includes basic Microsoft software like Word and Calculator.
Ocean sonar
Sonar is a technology used for mapping ocean floors, measuring water depths, and detecting underwater objects for both military and scientific purposes. While it provides benefits, sonar also has drawbacks such as potentially damaging marine life or interfering with animals' communication and food finding. Different sonar methods like passive sonar that doesn't emit sound can help mitigate negative effects, but integrated sensory networks and alternative technologies may better balance gaining knowledge with protecting marine wildlife.
Sea turtles
There are seven main species of sea turtles: loggerhead, green, leatherback, flatback, hawksbill, Kemp's ridley, and olive ridley. They live in oceans around the world and eat seaweed, crustaceans, jellyfish, and fish. Sea turtles are endangered due to threats like becoming tangled in nets, disease, pollution, and being captured. We can help sea turtles by avoiding beach development, not polluting beaches, and not capturing sea turtles.
Ocean sonar
The document discusses sonar, which uses sound waves to map the ocean floor and detect objects underwater. It has military uses like finding submarines, but can also be used for scientific research by listening to underwater environments. However, sonar poses risks like damaging marine life and interfering with animals' communication and food finding. While passive sonar has benefits like not emitting sounds, integrated sensory networks may offer alternatives with limited range. The document questions how sonar could be used positively while protecting marine life.
Polar Bear Powerpoint
The polar bear population is decreasing significantly due to two main factors. Global warming is causing polar bears to die off by threatening their habitat. Hunters also kill polar bears for their fur and fat. Currently there are estimated to be 20,000-25,000 polar bears left in the wild. Their long term prospects depend on whether global warming can be stopped to allow their numbers to recover. People are encouraged to donate to polar bear conservation research and adopt more environmentally friendly practices.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.
