According to the Kikuyu tradition, God lived on Mount Kenya and thus the villagers duly respected the mountain and the rains they believed it provided, which ensured their villages were lush and green and full of bounty harvests. The British came and imposed Christianity and told them that contrary to their belief, God lived in heaven. In her memoir, Wangari (2006) explained:

“The missionaries were followed by traders and administrators who introduced new methods of exploiting our rich natural resources: logging, clear-cutting native forests, establishing plantations of imported trees, hunting wildlife, and undertaking expansive commercial agriculture. Hallowed landscapes lost their sacredness and were exploited as the local people became insensitive to the destruction, accepting it as a sign of progress” (p. 6).

At that time, maintaining neutrality was very difficult to maintain for USA. The main rationale was the threat of German invasion over the US. They were approaching Mexico to invade the entire country. For the sake of national defense, President Wilson declared war against German empire on April 2, 1917. The submarine or U-Boat attacks on American trading activity were also not ignorable. If we want to outline the major heads as the underlying reasons, following points will justify the intervention in war: U-Boats or submarine attacks Breakdown of Sussex Pledge Lusitania was sinking Telegram from Zimmerman The actual threat that came from Zimmerman was down point where no more patience could be exercised. By observing the clear threat in the telegram, American President finally decided to declare the war which was already going on in Europe. Some critiques also state that America just took the sympathies from the stakes by cunningly entering in to the war. On the other hand, they just made the reasons justified by their own however the situation was still controllable without putting in to the war. 2. Vietnam War The so called reason given by America is prevention of communism spread. The war ended up with failure at high cost of human and monetary damages. It swallowed the lives of 58,000 American soldiers. A large number of militants were permanently disabled because of high stress and continuous warfare activities for long. Historically, it has been notified as a terrible mistake made by American administration. The war involved a huge quantity of chemical spread was over run in Vietnam. For example, nearly 10 percent of the country was intensively sprayed by seventy two million liters of the dangerous chemicals including Agent Orange. That excessive chemical invasion not only affected local citizens but also impugned the lives of American troops in Vietnam. The dioxin that contained Agent Orange influenced the irrigation and water supply system negatively. Along with this, it caused long term effects over the new child births. The new children were getting birth with numerous disabilities like limbless children. The adverse effects of the war still persist in several areas of Vietnam. For instance, it has been reported in 2003 that 650,000 people in the country are still facing post war problems in numerous ways. The main reason was chemicals which were dropped in an unlimited number. The underlying war also caused ill reputation at the end of USA amongst the contemporaries for such a inhumane and terrible warfare. Comparison Vietnam War is often referred to as a misguided warfare while the WW-I had a clear agenda of defense and security. US had to face an open defeat will huge losses with reference to Vietnam War whereas in World War I, US complied with the decided and declared agenda. People favor for the WW1 but it is opposite in case of Vietnam War. The purpose of Vietnam War was economic but the WW1 had a purpose of defense. The administration used only needed and contemporary weapons in the WW1 that did not leave adverse after effects but Vietnam War caused long term excessively horrible effects over the country, people’s health and the overall environment. American economy and budgetary system had to face a huge loss in term of man power (militants) as well as in monetary term.

I will pay for the following essay Water: An Overlooked Essential Nutrient. The essay is to be 4 pages with three to five sources, with in-text citations and a reference page.

While we can all agree that replacement of water is essential, the need for various types of fluid replacement is often highly debatable. Some experts believe that water is most important. Others believe that sports drinks offer a much better alternative to rehydration, due to the content of essential minerals like salt and potassium. Such minerals are important for our bodies to retain fluid that is used to replace losses through exercise. In order to determine which fluids are best, we will look as information from three different types of fluids. Doing so will enable us to determine which drink may work best for our individual or unique situations. We will compare three fluids: Water, Gatorade and PowerAde (20 ounces or .59 liters). Below is a chart that contains nutrient information on each drink, including carbohydrate(CHO), Sodium(Na) and Potassium(K), published by Central Washington University (cwu.edu). Daily requirements for water range from 2 to 16 liters, depending on level of physical exertion and related water loss. Mineral content of plain tap water varies so much that it impossible to provide adequate figures. Determination of the most appropriate fluid replacement depends on amount of water loss through exercise, other health factors, physical condition and intensity of exercise. Though a well balanced diet provides adequate amounts of electrolytes, such as glucose, sodium, potassium and chloride, these may be lost through sweating during exercise.

I will pay for the following essay Water Purification. The essay is to be 1 pages with three to five sources, with in-text citations and a reference page.

Boiling water as a means of purifying it is probably one of, if not the most popular and safest water purification processes. Use this simple method to bring water to a rolling boil for at least 5 minutes or longer according to some experts and let it cool before drinking. Along with the many impurities that boiling has removed it also removes the oxygen and this is responsible for its flat taste. A very small price to pay for clean drinking water, you can reinstate its taste by shaking it up or pour it back and forth between two containers to put back the oxygen. Purification using household unscented bleach is another solution, more likely if boiling is not possible. Before executing this method, you may need to filter the water if necessary. This can be done using coffee filters, paper towels or any other clean piece of cloth. After which, place the water in a container and add 2 drops of regular household bleach per quart of water, 8 drops per gallon and the ½ teaspoon per 5 gallons of water. However, dosage may need to be doubled if the water is cloudy. (Emergency Water Purification Calculator) Following the selected dosage, mix thoroughly and leave for half an hour before drinking but an hour if the water is cold or cloudy.&nbsp.Lastly, another recommended solution for water purification is filtration using commercial filters. Most of these commercial filters block contaminants using physical obstruction or chemical absorption or a combination of both. Filtration using these filters is regarded as the premier method of water purification removing more contaminants and proving more effective than other methods.&nbsp.In conclusion, these methods may provide a solution for unsafe water that may contain bacteria and viruses. If water is suspected to be unsafe for other reasons such as chemicals, sewage, poisonous substances etc, it is not recommended for drinking, even if ‘purified’.
