First, what do we understand by natural resource depletion? In simple words, natural resource depletion is basically consumption of a resource faster than it can be replenished. Natural sources are available as renewable and non-renewable sources of energy however; use of any of these forms beyond their rate of replacement leads to natural resource depletion.

The problem of natural resource depletion has almost doubled in the last 100 years with the drastic increase in population which has even led to population explosion. To meet the needs of the human population, the rate of depletion of natural resources has become threatening for the environment. It is certainly a big risk for the survival of the future generation as well.

The fast consumption of fossil fuels leads to emission of greenhouse gases, causing environmental problems like global warming and climate changes.

On the global platform, the awareness regarding this problem has spread among people and they are even making efforts to start using renewable sources of energy like solar, biogas, wind and geothermal energy. However, it must be understood by every individual that any form of energy should be used judiciously in order to make it last rather than exhaust to fulfill the needs of one generation.

China’s Illegal Fishing Expeditions Threaten World Waters
Many unrecorded documents for goods are purchased and switched off the printed pages in China and this includes the fish. That’s an increasing responsibility for the coastal guards of China’s neighbors and other countries in West Africa as well as for the global environmental guards.
Throughout this year’s first nine months, the officials of South Korea grasp and penalized the two hundred sixty six fishing ship for running an illegal fishing in the territory of South Korea. This reported by the Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries of South Korea. In addition, four thousand six hundred illegal Chinese fish vessels were captured within the ocean of South Korea, according to Korea’s Yonhap News Agency.
Those illegal fishing vessels stumble in an immense space, often under covered, dragged with force. During the time that China regularly report with disproportionately and emphasis their national marine catch to the U.N.’s Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), they immensely fail to report the weight in tons of stumbled fish by far off navy. This is based on the research conducted by the University of British Columbia and funded (PDF) by the European Parliament’s Committee on Committee on Fisheries.
According to reports, they measured that the Chinese fishing vessels in China that were seized within the foreign waters have a standard of 4.6 million tons of fish every year between the year 2000 to 2011, a total of twelve billion dollars. Part of this was the fish caught in the sea of Africa which was estimated 3.1 million tons and eighty percent of which was not able to report.

Japan must enhance surveillance system to protect territory
The action of China in breaking the terms of agreement to Japanese jurisdiction have been rolling. The government should construct a detailed statement that indicates an impending danger and secure protection system, taking into account that it will be a continuing struggle.
Ships of Japan Coast Guard have been organizing and carrying out regular patrols throughout the Senkakus and commanding Chinese vessels to depart from Japanese waters every time they put oneself deliberately into a place where one is unwelcome.
Organized body of Chinese air and maritime have reinforced and innovated their military paraphernalia and planned to build naval and air control in the East and South China seas.
The apprehension of central and local governments needs to share a sense of importance requiring swift action concerning the security of territorial solidarity.
The Japan Coast Guard organized to a certain limited extent in dealing with government vessels of China through assembling patrol boats throughout the country, but inside the present economic year it will also implement the process under which it will give way to run twelve huge patrol boats on a full-time jurisdiction.
It is significant to build a persistent aerial surveillance system at the earliest possible moment using the three jet planes.
The cooperation of Japan Coast Guard and Self-Defense Forces is very important in constructing a system effective of securing defense smoothly and continuously in expectation of different situations.

Our hearts are becoming fragile by the day. If we look at the statistics of USA, 610,000 people die due to heart disease every year. A large number of these deaths could have been prevented with the help of heart transplant but still there are too few hearts.

The first human heart transplant was performed by South African surgeon Christiaan Barnard. Soon surgeons around the world were transplanting hearts. But the problem was that all the recipients died within a year of transplant.

Since the late 1960s, doctors have been working on artificial heart. The most influential device was made by Willem Kolff, who invented the first dialysis machine for kidney.Kolff collaborated with fellow engineer, Robert Jarvik to work with him at University of Utah. What we got was Jarvik-7. It was made of two pumps, four valves and two air hoses. Due to its large size (like refrigerator), it could only be implanted in adults.

The US FDA approved the use of Jarvik-7 to be used on humans in 1982. Total five patients were implanted with Jarvik-7 but none of them survived more than 18 months. The device has been modified and renamed many times since then. SynCardia, a descendant of Jarvik-7 has been used many times.

Scientists are now working on a pulseless heart in which there is no heartbeat.

Imagine that you are a space tourist and you want to enjoy the finer things in life. For a start, let’s say you want to indulge in whiskey while enjoying your ride in space.

But, it would be impossible for you to pour the whiskey into the glass without gravity. The solution to this has been provided by Balantine, maker of Scotch whiskey. Their new product, the Space Glass has been designed in such a way that you will be able to enjoy the whiskey while taking delight in your space journey.

The Space Glass, which was developed by Open Space Agency works on the principle of capillary action. This principle was first discovered by Leonardo DaVinci. A liquid has a unique ability to defy gravity while clinging to walls of narrow vessels. By following the same process, water travels from the roots of plants to the flowers.

The process of filling the Ballantine’s Space Glass is simple and unique. Whiskey is injected at the bottom of the cup through a valve. The valve is made up of 3-D printed plastic and goes into a reservoir. The whiskey then goes through narrow channel that spirals to a mouthpiece on the brim. What you need to do is suck in the beverage.

Japan’s Security Screenings for Passengers

Security screenings is done in order to stop all skyjacking or any terrorism. Thus, it is very important that travellers are not allowed to bring weapons and other harmful items inside the airline.

Passengers who are on board should undergo security screening. This is done in order to make guarantee that all travellers can easily leave for their destinations and will be safe and secure on their flights.

In the article 86-2 of the Civil Aeronautics Act, it is advised that no one is allowed to bring any harmful and risky items inside the plane before the regulation of screening. These people include passengers, pilots, attendants, and everyone else who boards the airplane.

Moreover, in order for airlines to involve in the aircraft business in Japan, they should acquire a “License” from the Minister of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism.

In order to get this permit from authority, every airline should provide to the Minister an “operation plan” (Civil Aeronautics Act Article 100-2).

It is evidently explained that this procedure should have include “Measures to Prevent Seizure of Aircraft and Other Acts” (Ordinance for the Enforcement of the Civil Aeronautics Act. These course of actions points out to security procedures that include the security screening for luggage. This is the reason why security screening for travellers in Japan airports is supervised by every airline.

Narita International Airport act jointly with every airline in imposing flight security procedures to ensure the safety and security of passengers and airplane.
