Perhaps barytes include among their more noted applications and uses their role in the drilling for gas and oil; and in the making of inks, paints, papers, and TV screens. Their environmental impacts tend to be more gentle than harsh. For barytes are described as natural, green and clean by The Barytes Association of Derbyshire, in the United Kingdom. As natural products, they avoid the pollution of manufacturing processes. They're considered non-toxic even though they contain the heavy metal barium. For barium is highly insoluble, and therefore isn't at all coooperative about breaking down or mixing in liquids or water. And because of their non-reactivity chemically and physically, they're not messy. For example, their surface retention of oil is low. They deaden sound, and serve as radiation shields. And they're inexpensive.

What are apparent environmental impacts associated with this?

Wind power is blamed for several impacts on health and the environment:Claim: Wind power kills birds that fly into the blades of the turbines. Discussion: Some birds may die this way but no data is available, However bird deaths associated with windows on tall city buildings, home window collisions, car impacts, and free roaming domestic cats are calculated to be in the 100s of millions up to billions a year. Turbine related deaths are probably minimal compared to theseClaim: Wind power sites create subsonic noise that impacts people's health. Discussion: Not supported by actual scienceClaim: Turbine sites change wind speed and direction altering the climate. Discussion: Wind power sites are small in comparison to the Earth'a surface. Windenergy is shed or modified by trees, landforms, buildings and city heat islands effects and similar effects, The impact of turbines would be insignificantClaim: Wind power sites are ugly Discussion: A matter of taste. Smoke belchinf power plants have always been low on the artistic scale to many


What is the difference between environmental science and environmental studies?

Environmental Science focuses on scientific knowledge, chemistry, mathematics, biology, and physics to provide an advance scientific knowledge of contemporary environmental challenges. Environmental studies focuses on integrated understandings to the political, historical, social , and scientific facets out environmental challenges.
