This means that we use a lot of resources — steel, aluminum, and plastics, for instance. But at Toyota, large scale manufacturing doesn't mean large scale waste. In 1992 we introduced our Global Earth Charter to promote environmental responsibility throughout our operations. And in North America it is already reaping significant benefits. We recycle 376 million pounds of steel annually, and aggressive recycling programs keep 18 million pounds of other scrap materials from landfills. Of course, no one ever said that looking after the Earth's resources is easy. But as we continue to strive for greener ways to do business, there's one thing we're definitely not wasting.

AN ENFOLDING AND FERTILE ABYSS: RHETORIC AS THE CREATIVE BECOMING OF BIOLOGICAL LIFE A Dissertation Presented to the Graduate School of Clemson University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy Rhetorics, Communication, and Information Design by Hayley Renee Zertuche May 2016 Accepted by: Dr. Cynthia Haynes, Committee Chair Dr. Sean Morey Prof. Christina Hung Dr. Margaret Ptacek Dr. Luanne Frank ABSTRACT This dissertation seeks traces of enfolding corporeal paths within the ontological, epistemological, ethical abyss separating “Human” and “Animal.” The “question of the animal,” as it is often called, is currently en vogue within a larger ecological movement in the humanities. I seek to extend this engagement with “animality” beyond rhetoric, literature, and philosophy by enfolding the sciences and arts as well for a deeper understanding of humans as animals and therefore, I argue, as rhetorical life. This path of the HumAnimal emerges with a diffractive reading of new material feminism, evolutionary biology, contemporary art practices, and visual rhetorics, and in doing so, theorizes a definition of rhetoric that is prior to intention, consciousness, and mind. -

Lackner B.S., Cognitive Science University of California, Los Angeles June 1997 Submitted to the Program in Media Arts and Sciences, School of Architecture and Planning, In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Media Arts and Sciences June 2000 Abstract This research involves creating a system that provides parents with tools and information to help children learn from television. Children who converse with their parents during television viewing are better able to evaluate and make sense of content. However, children might learn more if they are encouraged to go from simply understanding content to generating questions and problem solving strategies. To do this, we need to deliver teaching and learning strategies to parents so they can initiate dialogues with their children around television. -
