    IDHAYA COLLEGE FOR WOMEN, KUMBAKONAM DEPARTMENT OF MICROBIOLOGY COURSE : B.Sc., & B.Com., I SEMESTER : II TOPIC : UNIT-VIII SUBJECT NAME : ENVIRONMENTAL STUDIES SUB CODE : 19UGCES Presented by Dr.M.NITHYA M.Sc., Ph.D., PGDCA Assistant Professor, Dept. of Microbiology MAN, ENVIRONMENT AND CLIMATE CHANGE The climate has changed many times in the past. The evidence for this is all around us, written in the shapes of the land, the composition of the ocean sediments, and the structure of the great ice caps that cover Greenland and the Antarctic. We are now corning to the realization that man can influence the planet's environment on a grand scale. Though he may have influenced the climate already, it has so far probably been in a small way. Our concern is that he may be able to do it in a larger way, and could begin to match Nature's forces with his own in the future. What can we say about man's influences relative to Nature's? This is the central question that we face when we consider the future of mankind. HISTORY OF CLIMATE Looking at the record of past climatic conditions, it becomes so fuzzy as we turn back the clock beyond 500 m.y. that very little can be said about the conditions on Earth. The ice age in which we now live probably started about 20 m.y. ago in the Antarctic, and then spread to the Northern Hemisphere two or three million years ago. Figure 1, by Flohn gives a rough idea of how the temperature at mid-latitudes may have changed during the past 60 m.y.

  • Alice in Zombieland SUMMARY
    Alice in Zombieland Gena Showalter Harlequin Enterprises Limited, 2012 404 pages SUMMARY: After a car crash kills her parents and younger sister, sixteen year old Alice Bell learns that her dad was right. The monsters are real. Now, Ali must learn to fight the monsters in order to stay alive. IF YOU LIKED THIS BOOK TRY… Wake, Lisa McMann Through the Zombie Glass, Gena Showalter Infinity, Sherrilyn Kenyon School Spirits, Rachel Hawkins WEBSITES: White Rabbit Chronicles, http://www.wrchronicles.com Official website of Gena Showalter, http://genashowalter.com BOOKTALK: Disclaimer: If (because of the book’s title) you are expecting a re-telling of Lewis Carroll’s Alice in Wonderland, you will be disappointed. However, don’t let that stop you from picking up this book. It’s a great read with a different twist on the whole Zombie concept. Yes, there are zombies in the book, but they’re not your typical zombies. Instead of being undead humans that crave human flesh, Showalter’s zombies are really infected spirits that eat the spirits of humans which then causes the humans to become infected. Not everyone can see the zombies. Sixteen year old Alice Bell doesn’t see them until after a car crash that kills her parents and younger sister. Alice moves in with her grandparents and attend a different high school. At her new school, Ali hooks up with a group of kids who turn out to be zombie slayers. Cole, the leader of the group, just happens to be the most gorgeous “bad boy” that Ali has ever seen.

  • Zombieland 106 Spring 2016
    2016 Exemplary Award Winner (ENWR106) Nicole Marquez Zombieland: A Post-Apocalyptic Nightmare or Adulthood Reality? In the film Zombieland (2009), directed by Ruben Fleischer, a young, anxious man known to the audience as Columbus – because of his hometown/ destination of Columbus, Ohio – encounters a man named Tallahassee and two sisters, Wichita and Little Rock. The group has their ups and downs and eVentually becomes what Columbus identifies as his “family”. While the film appears to be a mere zombie flick about good guys kicking zombie ass while trying to find somewhere to go in a post-apocalyptic world, Zombieland actually offers a notable look into the way that society is on a quest for a sense of simplistic innocence that perhaps is only possible to experience as children – deeming our quest pointless since aging and mortality are ineVitable. The zombie, having no regards for human life and being “hateful and Violent”, as described by Columbus, is itself a representation of what we can become as adults. We are left on our own to fend off the terrors of the real world with no direction, in recoVery of complicated parental relationships and a lost childhood. As children we create monsters out of the unknown (which is plenty when we are so young and full of blissful ignorance). As adults, we fear the monsters we know to be real. We fear the things that we’Ve already witnessed to be possibilities. Yes, we fear death and things still unknown to us as adults; howeVer, more damaging, we fear losing loVed ones, relationships or the lack of, not being loVed in return, being alone, and finding ourselVes in “Zombieland.” The film, Zombieland, reveals the way that growth into adulthood can desensitize us or inflict so much fear to the point of mental instability.
