Tharzi Ecotopia is a representation of an alternate world, a nation characterized by distinct regional boundaries, a sense of mistrust between regions, and existed in the same country with no communication. The nation is a vastly a contradiction to the American society where aspects from eth American society are either non-existence or on a different higher level. For instance, in Ecotopia, there are no sports of any kind (Callenbach, 34). People are more cultural and conventional with learning-centered on survival techniques (Callenbach,61). There is a highly decentralized economy and political aspects (Callenbach, 62), and women have a higher power, freedom over their lives and bodies, and rights (63) and a very environmentally conscious place, making it a world that modern society can only imagine.  While Ecotopia seems like the image of the sustainable world that the world seeks, Tharzi is a different world characterized by extremes were few fundamental rules seem to apply. Everybody exists on their own. Tharzi is extensive geographically, but it is hard to notice due to its people’s large population and diversity.  It is a busy…

Electronic Health Record System Electronic health records system is a digital form of storing patients’ records and medical demographic data. In the past, hospitals used the manual paperwork formats which were tedious to work with and prone to loss, destruction and replication. However, when the electronic method was introduced, most of the negative things affecting storage of health records manually were put to an end. Studies show that there is increase in using EHR from the year 2008 at 10% to 84% in 2015 (Krisberg, 2017). The paper will look at the positive outcomes from the use of electronic health records and issues related to it. There are several benefits of storing medical records electronically. Some of them include it improves the quality of care given to patients through reducing errors in medication and storage, reducing unnecessary investigations and improving exchange of information between health practitioners. It also enhances safety of their records which is free from physical destruction, falling into unauthorized and more confidentiality. Moreover, EHR improves the lives of the practitioners by enhancing workflow.  They aid in easy…

My Collective Existence in Response to Ernest Callenbach’s Ecotopia I am an American citizen by birth, whereby California is my area of residence. California is one of the states of America. Like any other state in America, California is headed by a governor, Gavin Christopher, with Democratic Party. We are among the regions who excluded themselves from the United States. The operations in my area of residence are similar to the other two regions that initially formed Ecotopia after World War II.  California is among the developed states in the country following the various aspects of development. For instance, the federal government has been pumping a lot of funds in the department of research. Therefore the state is endowed with technological methods of carrying out operations, especially in the field of production industries, among other fields. Most of our scientists have been collaborating and cooperating with scientists from other parts of the country to exchange ideas among the states that formed Ecotopia. According to William Weston in the novel, the scientists from this particular area are not allowed to share…

Impact of Ecotourism Ecotourism refers to a responsible traveling to natural areas that preserves the environment, while sustaining the well –being of the indigenous people. Therefore, ecotourism has been described as a type of tourism with a low-impact on the environment. Since the establishment of ecotourism, many governments have encouraged ecotourism as a way of attracting foreign investments in the form of tourists. Costa Rica is one of the regions that have embraced this mode of tourism. With its extensive ecosystem and rich biodiversity, it has become one of the leaders in this form of tourism.  By examining the ecotourism in Costa Rica, I believe its benefits to the environment outweighs its disadvantages. The promotion of ecotourism in Costa Rican has numerous benefits to the environment. To start with, ecotourism has become of the major justifications for the conversation of natural regions throughout Costa Rica leading to a rapid expansion of the national park system. Additionally, ecotourism is an effective way to deal with the issue of widespread deforestation. Deforestation is a major issue in various countries including Costa Rica.…

Describe the relationship between public goods and club goods. As initially defined by (Kaul et al., p. 211), pure public goods have distinct characteristics of no rivalry and non-excludable. Strictly, economists have defined public goods as goods that are non-excludable and non-rival. Non-excludable feature of a public good means that the commodity cannot be limited to particular consumers. The second characteristic of the public good that it is non-rivalrous simply means that the product can be comfortably shared among consumers without limiting the share portion among the consumers of such a good. For instance, the provision of national defense would be entitled to every citizen of a nation as would be consumed at equal measure. However, on the other hand, club goods have been defined by economists as goods that are excludable but non-rivalrous (Keohane et al., p. 31). Concerning public goods, there exists a contrast in the sense that public products are non-excludable while club goods are excludable. TV broadcast presents an excellent example for a club good since its consumers can all use it as long as they…

Broadening Theories: Intersectionality & Social-Ecological Model             Intersectionality is defined as a framework for conceptualizing a group of people, social problems, or a person, as impacted by several disadvantages and discriminations. Intersectionality considers the overlapping experiences and identities of people in understanding the complication of prejudices faced by such people (Adames, Chavez-Dueñas, Sharma, & La Roche, 2018). Intersectionality concept recognizes that the identity markers such as being woman or black do not occur independently, and each identity informs the each other, often generating a complex oppression convergence (Quiros & Berger, 2015). For example, Adames et al. (2018) say that a white woman and a black man make 0.78 dollars and 0.74 dollars to a white male’s dollar, respectively. Besides, a black woman who is faced with numerous forms of oppression only makes 0.64 dollars (Adames et al., 2018). Understanding the concept of intersectionality is essential in combatting the existing interwoven prejudices faced by people in their day-to-day lives (Quiros & Berger, 2015). The intersectional model emphasizes that people are normally disadvantaged by various oppression sources such as race, gender identity, class, religion,…
