Green consumers, compared with non-green consumers, prefer purchasing environmentally-friendly products over the standard alternatives available. Green consumers believe that they are guided by their internal control and open-mindedness, so they would not leave the responsibilities of protecting the environment to governments, business communities, environmentalists or scientists. Green consumers are ordinary people who think that business operations have a vital role in fighting to protect environment in general. Moreover, these consumers believe that an individual's consumption makes a difference in environmental issues. When green consumers demand products and services, firms combine environmental and social costs of their production and consumption. They also provide green management and green marketing practices by creating job opportunities in green consumption. Therefore, it could be said that green consumers are individuals targeting sustainability by using their purchasing power.

What students are advised to do is often plain wrong. For instance, study tips published on a website at George Mason University include this advice: "The key to learning something well is repetition; the more times you go over the material, the better chance you have of storing it permanently." Another, from a Dartmouth College website, suggests: "If you intend to remember something, you probably will." A public service piece that runs occasionally in the St. Louis Post-Dispatch offering study advice shows a kid with his nose buried in a book. "Concentrate," the caption reads. "Focus on one thing and one thing only. Repeat, repeat, repeat! Repeating what you have to remember can help burn it into your memory." Belief in the power of rereading, intentionality, and repetition is pervasive, but the truth is you usually can't embed something in memory simply by repeating it over and over. This tactic might work when looking up a phone number and holding it in your mind while punching it into your phone, but it doesn't work for durable learning.

American educators saw Asian American parenting as deviant and, correspondingly, felt white middle class parents and kids set an appropriate standard that others should conform to. For example, when white children outperform minority students, teachers rarely see it as "academic bullying" or express sympathy about minorities' "emotional well-being." Similarly, educators do not create pathological rationales for whites' weaker performance relative to Asian Americans, as happens for minorities relative to whites. Whites are not expected to emulate those who achieve more (i.e., toward Asian Americans), whereas black and Latinx youths are (i.e., toward whites). Also, teachers, predominantly white, reinforce a "hidden curriculum" that is, informal norms for what constitutes proper behavior, dress, attitudes, and discipline in schools. Racial inequalities arise even in integrated and reasonably resourced schools. Educators make significant efforts to address the learning gaps facing minority youths but do not disrupt the white supremacy embedded in standard practices. The taken-for-granted assumption that white students' practices are "normal" contributes to why Asian Americans are framed as "deviant" and "a problem.

Marine plastic pollution is a complex problem that occurs on many levels, as it presents physical, chemical, and biological implications for marine compartments at small scales while involving vast geographic domains. To counteract what can be regarded as a planetary boundary threat, we need tailored instruments to provide various layers of knowledge in an accessible manner. To this end, laboratory experiments and observations are indeed fundamental to capture specific aspects of plastic and plastic-related pollution; yet this zoo of data is still insufficient to provide a holistic description of this pervasive phenomenon. Quantitative methods can link and exploit our current understanding of the different processes and complex interaction characterizing marine plastic pollution to ultimately help to shed some light on aspects that are hard to investigate in the field. Actions against marine pollution have to be timely, bold, and knowledge-based. In this perspective, comprehensive, data-informed approaches can help not only to identify and protect the mechanisms that interconnect marine ecosystems but also to understand the processes and synergies that are disrupting them.

One factor that influences the publisher and the bookstore's ability to sell materials is piracy, which refers to the unauthorized copying, distribution, or use of copyrighted content. This is hardly a recent phenomenon, as copyright law dates back to 1709 during the reign of Britain's Queen Anne. But digital formats make piracy easier whether texts are appropriated for personal use or sold for a fraction of their retail cost. Individuals who would be mortified at the idea of shoplifting a print copy of a bestseller often think nothing of reading an online version that may have been pirated. As with any retail business, book publishers will continue to fend off piracy with evolving digital safeguards and to estimate and write off losses where these fail.

Photography battles with the fantasy that it captures a neutral view of reality without modifying it. Susan Sontag refers to an official use of the printed photograph that passes for unquestionable proof that a given thing happened. However, she states her opinion that 'photographs are as much an interpretation of the world as paintings and drawings'. Additionally, the art of dodging and burning during the transfer from negative to print was well established before Photoshop and digital photography. Ansel Adams is known for spending many hours in the darkroom developing a single print and he also said, 'dodging and burning are steps to take care of mistakes God made in establishing tonal relationships'. However, digital images tend to be one more step removed from reality. While the negative in print photography is still an image, the file of a digital image is comprised of bits ― computerized 1's and 0's ― that are not an image until interpreted and displayed by a combination of software and an electronic display device.

In a hypothetical situation, a local college's athletic department might send a press release to the media informing them about three events happening on campus tomorrow: a women's soccer game, a track and field event, and a blood drive sponsored by the men's tennis team. The newspaper elects to print only a story previewing the women's soccer game and ignores both the track and field event and the blood drive. Therefore, readers who use that newspaper as their only source of local information might have no idea that either the track and field event or the blood drive is happening. There are multiple events happening at the college, and it was not the readers who decided what was important ― the newspaper's editors decided for them. Situations like this one occur all the time in newsrooms across the world and perfectly demonstrate the concept of gatekeeping.

As civilizations started to grow and flourish, people found they could accomplish more with less effort if they specialized and divided their work into separate designations. So, for example, the work of brick-making was conducted separately from the work of ship-building ― just as the work of laying roads was separate from the work of farming, which was separate from the work of building dwellings or making pots. Each line of work was its own distinct activity, carried out by distinct practitioners who developed their work into an institution of sorts. As civilization continued to develop, differentiated forms of work became more sophisticated, more specialized, and more communal. In ancient Rome, they became formalized with the creation of what were called collegia, or professional associations. There was, for example, a college of woodworkers, a college of merchant mariners, a college of wine dealers, and a college of planters. In ancient China, a similar system developed. By the Middle Ages, guilds, a similar type of organization, had taken hold throughout much of Europe.

No one has objected so strenuously to defining psychology as the science of consciousness, and limiting it to consciousness, as the group of animal psychologists. By energetic work, they had proved that the animal was a very good subject for psychological study, and had discovered much that was important regarding instinct and learning in animals. But from the nature of the case, they could not observe the consciousness of animals; they could only observe their behavior, that is to say, the motor (and in some cases glandular) activities of the animals under known conditions. When then the animal psychologists were warned by the mighty ones in the science that they must interpret their results in terms of consciousness or not call themselves psychologists any longer, they rebelled; and some of the best fighters among them took the offensive, by insisting that human psychology, no less than animal, was properly a study of behavior, and that it had been a great mistake ever to define it as the science of consciousness.

While many studies have described the potential benefits of urban agriculture, there is a need for more research that measures the impact of urban agriculture on food access, nutrition, and income generation; explores the potential of urban agriculture to alleviate global challenges such as climate change and biodiversity loss; and suggests ways to maximize the benefits of urban agriculture in relation to these issues. Botanical gardens can use emerging research in these areas to inform programmatic approaches. In addition, researchers are exploring growing practices that can maximize production in urban spaces. Botanical gardens may be able to contribute to this work as well as play a role in educating urban gardeners and farmers about recommended practices for their regions, particularly in the midst of a changing global climate. Finally, botanical gardens can benefit by sharing urban agriculture resources and approaches with one another, including lessons learned in program design, site design and operation, and partnership development to promote effective community engagement.

Colonial labour regimes worsened global human inequality in two ways. First, they depressed payments to workers in the colonies, enabling the production of comparatively and historically cheap products that nonetheless were highly profitable for the companies of the metropolitan colonizers. This sustained rising profits and the emergence of great fortunes in commerce, industry and finance in the metropole. Second, when enslaved peoples were freed, enslavers were fully compensated for their loss of "property" based upon the "market value" of the enslaved people at the time. In the case of Haiti, this compensation was paid by the newly independent country to the French elite, lumbering Haiti with a fiscal debt that shaped the continuing underdevelopment of the country into the twentieth century. In the case of Britain, this compensation was paid by lower- and middle-class taxpayers in Britain over a very long period of time, transferring money to those who had already benefited from enslavement for decades.

You can use your days off to figure out whether you are a morning person or a night person. Even though the alarm clock doesn't go off on weekends, some people still merrily leap out of bed. Others pull their pillows over their heads, relieved that for once they won't be torn out of their sleep in the middle of the night; they can nod off again with visions of breakfast in bed at noon. The natural differences between these types are enormous: If there were no outside constraints and people could be left to their own devices, some would not go to bed until the others were already awake for the next day. Oscar Wilde enjoyed flaunting his night-owl status. When an acquaintance asked the Irish writer whether he could visit him at nine o'clock, Wilde replied, "You are a remarkable man! I could never stay awake as long as that. I am always in bed by five o'clock!

The current trend of increasing global atmospheric temperatures and increasing seawater acidity reduces the overall capacity of oceans to absorb more CO₂​. If allowed to continue unstopped, this could potentially change pH in the deep-sea regions and hinder the critical processes associated with carbon particulate burial. Similarly, complex relationships between water temperatures and ocean acidity in marine systems erode calcification rates in shell-bearing organisms and threaten the survival of coral reefs. Coral reefs cover less than 1 percent of the Earth's surface but are home to 25 percent of all marine biodiversity. By the end of the century, current levels of carbon dioxide emissions could result in the most acidic levels of ocean pH in 20 million years, which would have severe adverse effects on ocean water chemistry (both coastal and deep sea), the marine life and food webs, and the function of oceans as a carbon reservoir.

Large Language Models (LLMs) are extremely strong artificial intelligence (AI) systems that use sophisticated algorithms and enormous volumes of data to understand, interpret, and generate human language. Deep learning techniques, specifically neural networks, are typically used in the construction of LLMs in order to process and learn from massive volumes of data. LLMs must be fundamentally trained on a large volume of data, typically measured in petabytes. Large strings of numbers, referred to as "weights" or "parameters," combined with code that decodes and applies the numbers make up machine learning models. The data that models learn from is not stored in or contained in the models themselves. Rather, certain numbers within a model adjust slightly in response to new information as it gains knowledge. Large language models require the successful development of several essential steps, which are involved in the training process. Large-scale text data collection and preprocessing from a variety of sources, including books, articles, websites, and other textual corpora, usually marks the start of the process.

This kind of rapid response is closely linked to the development of the smartphone. Our communication is now so directly influenced by technology that the two cannot be separated. Technology has increased our efficiency and productivity, but it is a double-edged sword. We may end up less human than we ever wanted. As we adapt to rapidity and hyper-productivity, our conversation may become like fast food, and we may lose the ability to produce and enjoy slow talk. Before the arrival of the smartphone, we were able to wait a couple of days for an answer to an email, and for urgent matters, we made a call.

Recognizing changes in the natural world caused in part or entirely due to human activities ― such as climate change, pollution and habitat loss ― tourists are pursuing what is referred to as "last chance" tourism. Last chance tourism is travel motivated by the desire to see threatened or diminishing natural attractions, including glaciers, coral reefs and endangered species. Locations featuring these attractions may continue to experience heightened visitation, simultaneously creating opportunities for increased awareness and resource protection as well as increased risk of over-tourism. Over-tourism is acknowledged as a major threat to the industry. Over-tourism describes the tipping point where the costs of tourism outweigh the benefits for local communities due to overcrowding or poor management. If not managed properly, over-tourism is a threat to sustainable tourism development. The growing concern for over-tourism offers opportunities for tourism professionals to implement sustainability best practices and improve site-specific sustainable destination-level management plans. Over-tourism is a complex trend in the travel industry and calls upon destination managers to engage with all sectors and stakeholders involved in tourism towards long-term, fact-based planning to mitigate over-tourism.

Utilizing trash or residues from the fruit processing sector has recently become a significant challenge for agro-processing businesses and has a negative influence on the environment. The fruit processing industry produces a lot of waste dumped in landfills or rivers, threatening the ecosystem. Therefore, there is a need for disposal techniques that recycle it, provide resources for livestock feed, or extract or create goods with added value. It is possible to lessen environmental degradation, increase energy security, and cut greenhouse gas emissions by turning wastes collected from the fruit processing industry into valuable products. It is believed that using fruit waste from processing can help the food industry recover value-added products and make operations commercially viable. In light of this, it is a promising field of research to use wastes from the processing of fruit to create goods with value added.

Hard skills are defined as the specific procedural skills and technical expertise that are required to perform a job, or more aptly put, the 'what' needs to be done. These skills are clearly listed in the job description and are acquired through more highly specific education and training programs. Hard skills are the skills we think of when considering a professional college degree. Examples include accountants, who must have accounting degrees, lawyers, who must have law degrees, and doctors, who must have medical degrees. But does that mean that these professionals do not need soft skills? We think not. In fact, these soft attributes, or 'how' something is done, are equally critical and allow professionals to thrive in the interpersonal service orientated economy faced daily. This is why modern businesses are looking for graduates with a good mix of hard and soft skills as they enter the workforce.

Trade is an inevitable activity of human existence. In all periods, people have engaged in transactions that involve the exchange of goods, services, and ideas. Not only has trade helped societies adapt their responses to risk and uncertainty but it has also played a central role in intergroup relations be they cordial or predatory. Long before the invention of money for private exchange, elements of trade formed part of the earliest human interactions. Among prehistoric people, goods, services, and ideas were exchanged as gifts, tributes, or as part of a barter economy. Beyond early hunter-gatherer communities which strove to maintain self-sufficiency, long-distance trade could be found. Indeed, since its beginnings in the Palaeolithic and Neolithic periods, the impulse to trade has developed, eventually fueling immense civilisations and empires. It was the development of maritime trade connecting the Mediterranean, Indian Ocean, and South China Sea, along with the creation of the Silk Road, that established what we recognise today as the foundations of the world's modern commercial and trading systems.

Employees tend to leave companies to become founders when their employers' growth rates begin to fall, reducing the attractiveness of staying there and the opportunity costs of becoming founders. The likelihood of an employee leaving to become a founder has also been linked to the employee's own performance. Employees whose performance was in the middle of the distribution were the least likely to leave; the most likely were the poor-performing employees (the "slugs" whose pay wasn't high and who had the least to lose by leaving to found a startup) and the high-performing employees (the "stars" who had the potential to earn high wages by becoming self-employed). Although high-paid employees may be less likely than lower-paid employees to walk away from their salaries, if they have saved a high percentage of their earnings over the years, that nest egg may make them more likely to make the leap than if they hadn't saved.

There is some evidence that cooler body temperatures can cause people's internal clocks to click at a slower rate. One experiment found that divers immersed in 39-degree sea water estimated a 60-second interval to pass more than 10 percent faster than they did before entering the water. Other studies have found that people with high fevers perceive the clock to move more slowly than it actually does (they overestimate intervals of time). These findings raise the possibility that people in warmer places are operating on slower internal clocks. This would, in turn, cause the speed of events to seem faster to them, perhaps explaining why their actual temporal norms are kept slower. In other words, in terms of their internal metronomes, there may be little or no difference in the subjective tempo experienced by people in hotter and colder climates. The tempo in both cases may seem just right.

By the 1950s, social theorists began thinking and writing about age, aging, generations, and the life course. Their work remains relevant today. The first serious attempt to look at the social importance of age groups was made by the German sociologist Karl Mannheim in an essay titled "The Problem of Generations," which was first published in 1927. Mannheim defined generation as a category of people born within a specific historical era or time period. For Mannheim, a generation was also characterized by common world views that distinguished it from other generations. Mannheim was keenly aware that accident of birth timing did not automatically create these common understandings and worldviews; he observed that social and social psychological processes led some members of a generation to develop an identity and consciousness with their age peers. Mannheim suggested that generational consciousness arose not from merely being born at the same time but from being exposed to the same kinds of experiences and historical events in a common social and political environment. According to Mannheim, belonging to a generation is a combination of a state of mind and an age grouping.

A promising starting point for seeing how well we currently understand consciousness is to look at the one species that we know for certain does have conscious experiences ― our own. With human consciousness we at least know what it is from our own personal experience and we also have the advantage of being able to use language to ask other people what their conscious experiences are like. If we could identify the characteristic 'signature' of consciousness in our own brains, then it might be possible to look for similar signatures in the brains of animals that cannot tell us in words what they are feeling. Even a theory of consciousness that did not explain how conscious experiences arise from brain tissue might at least indicate what brain structures or types of brain activity were correlated with consciousness. We could then see whether similar brain structures or activities are also found in other species. Insights from human consciousness could therefore become our way of coming to grips with animal consciousness.

본문 지문

Organic chemistry occupies a central role in the world around us, as we are surrounded by organic compounds. The food that we eat and the clothes that we wear are comprised of organic compounds. Our ability to smell odors or see colors results from the behavior of organic compounds. Pharmaceuticals, pesticides, paints, adhesives, and plastics are all made from organic compounds. In fact, our bodies are constructed mostly from organic compounds (DNA, RNA, proteins, etc.) whose behavior and function are determined by principles such as molecular structure, bonding, and reactivity ― all central to organic chemistry. The responses of our bodies to pharmaceuticals are the results of reactions guided by the principles of organic chemistry. A deep understanding of those principles enables the design of new drugs that fight disease and improve the overall quality of life and longevity. Accordingly, it is not surprising that organic chemistry is required knowledge for anyone entering the health professions.
