Compare and contrast GDP and GNP.

How have earthquakes in California molded the environmental perception within nature culture? Furthermore how has this changed how Californians act on the land?

This catastrophic environmental event obviously affected humans in a negative way. Why do we not take into consideration the lives affected, and put more resources into research that could be used to ensure that the damage to society is less the next time a similar event occurs? As natural disasters such as this become increasingly disastrous around the world, why are steps not being taken to increase the ability to cope with the repercussions?

Great follow up questions. I wonder which countries in the world are the most proactive when it comes to their interaction with the environment.

Very recently an earthquake hit California with a magnitude of 6, causing much devastation and destruction. Buildings collapsed and fires started all without warning because of human's inability to predict this natural disaster. Will humans ever be able to control the environment? Or will the environment we live in always dominate us?

In this case mobility and globalization are working hand-in-hand to make Twitter's job harder. The ISIS, a terrorist group, has been posting inappropriate material on Twitter. Because Twitter is an international social site, ideas and news can spread like wild fire. This causes disturbing images, posted by the ISIS, to have a larger sphere of influence. Twitter's job is to stop and suspend accounts related to ISIS. This leads us to the question many have been asking; Is Twitter a tech company or a news service?

Due to the close proximity of Ukraine and Russia, each country has a large influence on one another. The theme of mobility is seen through pro-Russian rebels in Ukraine, who have been exposed to Russian ideas through diffusion. What effect will the Russian influence have in the future? Will the rebels be able to separate from Ukraine, or will the Ukrainian government be able to gain control over its country again?
