Paul [167]3 years ago
3 0
The Earth Policy Institute states that once the whole world shift entirely to compact fluorescent light bulbs,  we would be able to shut down 270 coal-fired power plants. Also, the gasoline equivalent of the energy that would be saved by replacing a 100W incandescent bulb with a 24W CFL is enough to drive a Toyota Prius from New York to San Francisco. Therefore, the two-fold benefit of swapping your bulbs are 1) it can save a lot of energy, and  2) can save you a ton of money, as well.

Essay Frankenstein predictions
atroni [7]

Answer:

The monster in Mary Shelly’s Frankenstein lurches into life as big as a man but as ignorant as a newborn. He can’t read, speak, or understand the rudiments of human interaction. When he stumbles upon the cottagers, however, he picks up language by observing them and studying their speech. It is this acquisition of language, along with the eloquence it brings, that turns the monster from a mysterious nightmare into a sympathetic and tragic figure. By showing how language transforms the monster, and by contrasting the well-spoken monster with his equally articulate creator, Shelley argues that verbal communication—rather than action or appearance—is the only way through which people can truly understand one another.
