Raising awareness via art installations
This document discusses four major environmental issues: water footprint and ocean acidification, deforestation and biodiversity loss, and climate change and polar ice melt. It covers topics related to the sustainability of water usage and how it impacts oceans, the reduction of forests and effects on wildlife, and global warming's effect on climate and melting of polar regions.
Water pollution
1) The document discusses different types of water sources such as sea water, lake water, well water, and canal water that connect rivers to the sea.
2) It addresses the harmful effects of waste such as paper, food, plastics, rubber, and metals on water sources if not properly disposed of, posing dangers to people, animals, plants, and the environment.
3) The main message is a call to keep waters clean by properly disposing of waste to avoid poisoning, damaging, or destroying living things that rely on water.
Impacts on Wetlands
The document discusses how wetlands in and around Edmonton, Alberta have been impacted by the city's growth. It classifies different types of wetlands and describes their environmental benefits, which include filtering water and providing habitat. However, much development has resulted in wetland destruction by converting land for residential and industrial use. Efforts are being made to mitigate impacts through policies on development and wetland creation, though challenges remain in replacing lost functions.
Natures Last Stand Presentation
Deforestation and beach pollution are damaging the environment and harming wildlife. Deforestation is removing forests almost everywhere and ruining nature while beach pollution is dirtying land and water and killing many fish. The disrespect of nature shown through these actions is considered disgusting by the author.
Rainforests
This document briefly mentions several topics including rosemary, remembrance, organic smells, evergreen Mediterranean plants, and using rosemary in certain foods. It also notes that rosemary is a proud plant with the scientific name of Ros Marinus.
Compost
According to the EPA, 30% of food scraps and yard waste in landfills could be composted instead. In 2018, 146.2 million tons of waste was sent to landfills while only 42.6 million tons was composted. Compost improves soil quality by retaining moisture, returning nutrients to the soil, and reducing emissions from landfills. Good compost needs a mixture of greens like food scraps and browns like leaves in equal amounts, with adequate water. As materials break down, compost progresses from an initial mixture to a dark, earthy-smelling end product.
Enviroment
The document outlines 10 actions individuals can take to help protect the environment, such as not littering in the streets, not cutting down trees, throwing trash in its proper place, recycling, planting more trees, not wasting water, avoiding pollution of rivers and seas, using bicycles instead of cars to reduce air pollution, and using reusable bags instead of plastic.
Pecha Kucha -Ellie- ASSESSMENT 1 (Ophir/Lower Lewis Ponds Creek)
The document discusses various issues affecting a creek, including erosion from gold panning and soil loss, drought reducing water for irrigation, and problems stemming from deforestation, animal slaughter, and new infrastructure development. Solutions proposed involve building dams and ponds, planting native trees, and restricting creek water usage to address erosion, drought, contamination, and overconsumption issues impacting farming and the local environment.

The self
this presentation explains the emergence of Self with respect to sociological factors. And the extent to which these factors influence the Emergence of Self.

THEORIES
Looking glass self & the self theory I & Me
Sociology
By hunza Shawaiz
Self & cooley’s looking glass self
The document discusses the concepts of self and the looking glass self as proposed by Charles Cooley. It defines self as one's own experience and identity. Cooley's looking glass self theory proposes that an individual's self-concept is formed through imagining how we appear to others, imagining others' judgments of us, and developing feelings like pride or shame based on those imagined judgments. The document provides examples to illustrate different types of self, including self-concept, self-knowledge, social self, and self-esteem. It also provides biographical details about sociologist Charles Cooley and an overview of his looking glass self theory.
Cognitive developmental theory Jean Piaget
This document provides an overview of Jean Piaget's theory of cognitive development. It describes Piaget's four stages of development: sensorimotor, preoperational, concrete operational, and formal operational. Key concepts discussed include assimilation, accommodation, schemas, and how children's thinking abilities change as they progress through each stage. The document also notes both strengths and weaknesses of Piaget's influential but not definitive theory of child development.
Sigmund freud- psychoanalysis and psychosexual theory
Sigmund Freud developed psychoanalysis, a method for treating mental illness involving talking freely to uncover the unconscious. He proposed the mind has three parts - the id (primitive instincts), ego (reality principle), and superego (morality). Freud believed psychosexual development occurs in stages, and fixing at a stage can cause neuroses. His theories influenced psychology and views of childhood development.
George Herbert Mead
George Herbert Mead is one of the founders of sociology in the United States of America. Though he has made numerous journals and books, he did not publish even a single one.
Symbolic Interactionism
Symbolic interactionism holds that 1) meaning arises from social interaction and language rather than being inherent in objects, 2) thinking occurs through inner conversations stimulated by symbols, and 3) the self is defined through interaction, language, and thought as well as taking the perspective of others.
Symbolic Interactionism by George Herbert Mead
Symbolic interactionism is a theory that views society as a complex system of symbolic communications between individuals. It proposes that 1) people act based on the meanings symbols have for them, 2) meanings arise through social interactions where people define and redefine symbols, and 3) people's thoughts and their views of themselves are modified through an internal interpretation of one's own and others' actions. According to this view, the self develops as people learn to see themselves through the eyes of others and their perceptions are internalized.
Socialization
1. Socialization is the lifelong process through which individuals acquire identities and skills needed to function in society. It occurs through social interaction and differs across cultures.
2. Major agents of socialization include family, schools, peers, and mass media. They socialize individuals on norms, values, and roles according to factors like gender and race.
3. Socialization is a continuous process that occurs throughout the life stages of infancy, childhood, adolescence, and adulthood as individuals take on new social roles and statuses. Resocialization may occur voluntarily or involuntarily.
