Marine debris poses threats to both wildlife and humans. Plastic waste is often mistaken as food by animals, which can lead to choking, entanglement, or infections. Large debris can damage coral reefs and disrupt marine habitats. Common sources of marine debris include illegal dumping, abandoned fishing gear, and litter carried into waterways by storms or wind. To help address this issue, people should reduce single-use plastics, reuse items whenever possible, recycle properly, and participate in beach and coastal cleanup events to remove debris from oceans and waterways.

The document discusses the rise of social media and its potential for use in government relations. It notes that email is currently the largest social media platform and defines social media as communities for connecting with friends, fans, and colleagues. It also provides statistics on the size and growth of social media platforms and audiences, and gives several case studies showing how politicians, organizations, and causes have successfully used social media for their campaigns and initiatives.
The document proposes an experiment to examine whether listening to preferred music can improve sleep quality. The experiment would involve 150 participants ages 15-25, who would have their sleep monitored via EEG for one week. The control group would receive no music, while the experimental group would listen to preferred music while sleeping. Sleep patterns, cognitive performance, and self-reported sleep quality would be measured and compared between groups. The expected results are that the experimental group would show decreased sleep latency, fewer awakenings, and improved self-reported sleep quality compared to the control group. The implications are that the study could provide evidence that music is a healthy, low-cost way to help those with sleep issues.

A strong business requires building and nurturing a strong team. Creating an environment in which the whole (team) is greater than the sum of its parts (individuals) is a great philosophy, but how do you make it happen? In this webinar, hosted by TVCNet and Consilio, we will discuss a set of tools to help you build synergy in your team, while embracing individuality at the same time.

The Press Release is Dead: Using New Communications Tools to Build Your Busin...Curt Mercadante
1. The document discusses how traditional press releases are becoming obsolete and new communication tools like social media, email, online video, and engagement are more effective.
2. It provides an overview of using various social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and online video to communicate with audiences and build opt-in lists.
3. The key points are that effective communication now requires engagement over just eyeballs, and content must be authentic and build real connections rather than just broadcasting messages.

The document discusses social media and its impact on global industries. It outlines best practices for social media use, including understanding customers and monitoring conversations. It emphasizes the importance of listening to social media and responding promptly to protect brands from online attacks. Metrics for social media return on investment are also examined.

The magazine focuses on house music, which is typically heard at summer festivals and parties attended mainly by people aged 16-30. Research showed the target audience was those aged 16-25. The magazine features young artists that this age group can relate to more easily. Articles use an informal, friendly style and language this younger audience can relate to in order to best represent them.
Bienvenido al mundo real de la teoría organizacional. La suerte cambiante de Xerox
muestra la teoría organizacional en acción. Los directivos de Xerox estaban muy involucrados en la teoría organizacional cada día de su vida laboral; pero muchos nunca se
dieron cuenta de ello. Los gerentes de la empresa no entendían muy bien la manera en que
la organización se relacionaba con el entorno o cómo debía funcionar internamente. Los
conceptos de la teoría organizacional han ayudado a que Anne Mulcahy y Úrsula analicen
y diagnostiquen lo que sucede, así como los cambios necesarios para que la empresa siga
siendo competitiva. La teoría organizacional proporciona las herramientas para explicar
el declive de Xerox, entender la transformación realizada por Mulcahy y reconocer algunos pasos que Burns pudo tomar para mantener a Xerox competitiva.
Numerosas organizaciones han enfrentado problemas similares. Los directivos de
American Airlines, por ejemplo, que una vez fue la aerolínea más grande de Estados
Unidos, han estado luchando durante los últimos diez años para encontrar la fórmula
adecuada para mantener a la empresa una vez más orgullosa y competitiva. La compañía
matriz de American, AMR Corporation, acumuló $11.6 mil millones en pérdidas de 2001
a 2011 y no ha tenido un año rentable desde 2007.2
O considere los errores organizacionales dramáticos ilustrados por la crisis de 2008 en el sector de la industria hipotecaria
y de las finanzas en los Estados Unidos. Bear Stearns desapareció y Lehman Brothers se
declaró en quiebra. American International Group (AIG) buscó un rescate del gobierno
estadounidense. Otro icono, Merrill Lynch, fue salvado por formar parte de Bank of
America, que ya le había arrebatado al prestamista hipotecario Countrywide Financial
Corporation.3
La crisis de 2008 en el sector financiero de Estados Unidos representó un
cambio y una incertidumbre en una escala sin precedentes, y hasta cierto grado, afectó a
los gerentes en todo tipo de organizaciones e industrias del mundo en los años venideros.
